Williams, Jessica M.; Cera Guy, Jade N. M. T.; Shore, Bruce M. – Roeper Review, 2019
High-achieving students' work-alone preference has been shown to be largely false and to depend on the learning context. However, the literature has not distinguished preferences from expectations, nor directly examined what students expect will occur in classroom group work. An attempt to systematically review group-work expectations yielded just…
