In the Classroom

Introduce this site to the class on a whiteboard or with a projector. Once the students have been given a brief introduction to the sections you want them to learn about, divide the class into small groups. Give each group a topic to explore and become the experts. Engage students using the cooperative classroom technique Jigsaw, and have student groups share what they know with the other groups. Need a refresher for Jigsaw? See Jigsaw Classroom, reviewed here.
