In the morning we are spit into little groups. The tutor has assigned for each group a task of historical research about people that influenced Ireland and England. The task is made up of research using the internet and then to write a summary or a map to synthesize. Any 10 minutes the team's papers have to be exchanged and the new task for the other groups is to augment or add details to the paper just filled in by the other groups. We formed 4 groups so after 40 minutes all groups have finished to write. The last step was to present the work of each group.
I found this activity very useful because in a small group all participants are involved and the conflicts are less than in a big group. The additonal step is intended to envelope collaboration because it avoids conflict and enhances different points of view.
