Message: [QUOTE="Minicoop69, post: 5308732, member: 4323"] I am switching from Teaching math for 17 years, but this is how I taught math. Direct instruction with time for individual practice. I hated group work as a student and as a teacher of math I hate it even more. You either know the math or you don't. A group won't help you learn the material. My school wanted some sort of group work, think pair share stuff built in, but I don't do it and my scores on evaluations are fine. Not sure what rating system you have, but we have effective or highly effective as the 2 that you need to get to be safe. The teachers that get highly effective really think they are the best, but the stories I've heard from their classrooms are amazingly terrible. [/QUOTE]
