LEGO BLOCKS – A FOUNDATION FOR EFFECTIVE GROUP WORK

The session engages participants in an activity designed to help students reflect on the common pitfalls associated with group-based experiential learning projects. The activity involves students constructing basic LEGO sets in groups where instructions are manipulated to simulate the challenges students are likely to encounter when working in groups. Session participants will participate in the activity and then be asked to discuss how they could adapt or improve the activity to fit with their learning environment.
