Group Chat!


We were put into groups and given the task of reading a few different poems and discussing them, but not by moving around and talking. So we used our Gmail accounts we created to hold a chat between team members. My group was made up of Samantha and Shaina. After preparing our group chat we each picked a poem from our literature book to write a summary about. All three of us read all of the poems and discussed them so we could get a mutual feel. I think that working together helped us to get a better understanding of what we are reading. I really liked the group chat and thought it was a very effective way of learning. By messaging each other on the computer about our assignments the classroom was quieter and people weren't getting distracted by all the chatter.
