Student responses to research questions

The student responses were disconcerting.  The majority of students felt the most effective way to learn was through the teacher talking and the students taking notes.  A smaller number of students considered working in groups or collaboratively as a good learning experience.  Only one student considered pre-learning as a positive way to support their learning.

The students, for the most part, saw their role in learning as listening and taking notes and answering questions and complete tasks.  A small number of students considered group or collaborative  work effective.
