12. Significant Same Single Simultaneous
The problem or
question should
be significant
enough to engage
and enhance
understanding.
Students complete
the same
questions in class
together with
others on a team.
Each team must
choose among
various options to
arrive at a single
answer or solution
to a problem.
Students compare
their team
answers with
those of other
teams.
