Small Group Teaching
"Small groups are not ideal for
distributing information, but they are helpful for students to
develop their understanding of concepts and to acquire or
improve strategies and approaches to problems. To achieve these
higher-order thinking and learning activities promoted by small
group teaching, it is helpful for the student to engage in
meaningful communication directed towards a goal or set of
goals. These higher-order thinking skills (e.g., application of
concepts and principles, problem-solving, etc.) are the primary
objective of small group sessions." (University of Alabama
Office of Curriculum
Development and Management site)
