Innovative Teaching and Learning Methods Problem and Project Based Learning Innovative Teaching Methods

Abstract

The purpose of this note is to discuss the procedures, problems, solutions, and tentative outcomes of using collaborative learning groups (CLGs) in a large class. We hope to open a dialogue on this subject among our colleagues. Our experiences are based on the use of group assignments in large (225 students) sections of Introduction to Sociology, held in a traditional lecture hall (with no small discussion sections) over three semesters.
