Meet our SOAR Winners
from Spring 2009:

Congratulations to our April Featured Faculty, Martha Lally (Psychology)

Martha notes that there are many cognitive psychologists who have supported group work as being beneficial to student development. So it is no surprise that in her psychology class, she likes having students work in groups as a precursor to whole group discussions. She also notes the importance of students receiving both a group grade and an individual grade.

To read more of Martha's response, as well as all the other faculty members' suggestions of ways to facilitate and assess student group work, please visit our Featured Faculty Blog.
