These tasks can include anything from: group work / conflict resolution sessions; having students undertake learning style and personal learning activities so that they understand their strengths / weaknesses in a group; using ICT tools to support collaboration (e.g. Google Drive or edmodo); explicit teaching of
problem solving and critical thinking (argument mapping, pro / con activities, logic and reasoning tasks), peer and self - evaluation in group work; small group
dynamic activities that require students to solve small
problems collaboratively (and mirror the types of open ended questions and
problems encountered in other subjects e.g.
maths, humanities, English, science).
The assessments will include complex, multipart tasks, such as solving applied
math problems that require using statistical packages and
dynamic graphing software.
