EXPECTED CRITERIA FOR SUCCESS: (1) Best answer(s) within time available, and (2) Everyone must be able to explain the process used to answer the questions. INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNTABILITY: One member from your group may be randomly chosen to explain the group’s answer(s). EXPECTED BEHAVIORS: Active participating, checking for understanding, encouraging everyone’s participation. INTERGROUP COOPERATION: When you finish compare your answers with those of another group and discuss.

Group Roles Reader: Read through the material slowly, carefully, with expression, so members never forget it for the rest of their lives Recorder: Write down all the group’s ideas, make sure there is at least one idea from each member for each question. Go back and try to choose one answer for the group for each question. Checker: Ask other group members to demonstrate comprehension and help diagnose problems in understanding.
