  • All members of the group must participate in designing an approach to lead discussion on the material.
  • All members of the group must participate in class in leading the discussion.
  • Each member of agroup must turn in a 1 paragraph assessment of their contribution to the preparation and conducting of the in-class discussion. This is due on the Monday following their group's discussion.

Information on group led discussions:
  • The discussion should be aimed at involving the class, although you may wish to start with a brief presentation of background material and interject lecture material as needed.
  • The discussion should be designed to highlight the experimental approaches of the study. If your group wishes to project data via the computer, DM can help you prepare your projections with POWERPOINT.
