Facilitating Student Learning
– Educators will gain
strategies that help students learn to grow into the group facilitator
role. The dynamics and stress of group work and its impact on all will
be reviewed. By being the "guide on the side" instead of the "sage on
the stage," educators free themselves to more closely observe learning
styles and group dynamics. Students learn more when allowed to use and
build on the knowledge they bring to the class and appreciate the
validation it gives them.

they return to their classrooms. |
