Well-designed small-group instruction (cooperative/peer learning) improves student academic performance while enhancing peer relations, student behavior, social-emotional skills, and mental health. To be successful, however, small-group instruction requires key design ingredients that are often left out in less structured implementations. Delivering high-quality small-group instruction remotely is also challenging given limitations in videoconferencing tools. In this workshop, attendees will participate in authentic small-group lessons that provide experiential insight into these key design ingredients and how they can be applied to in-person or remote instruction. Contrasts will be drawn with more informal small-group approaches, illustrating why these design principles contribute to greater success.
