Example group work activity:
- Pre-workshop activity for students to choose their groups (group choice tool). You then place them into these groups via Course administration > Users > Groups > Create group. You can also use this section to provide pre-reading or activities to help them be better prepared for the live session.
- Live workshop could be tailored for wholly online, face-to-face, or hybrid/rotational delivery (with a blend of remote and physically present students). BBB link for the live webinar/lecture, then links to whatever tool you're wanting your learners to use to present their collaborative group work task outcomes (provision of a BBB virtual room has also been provided for live conversation between learners).
Links to each group's learning space could be restricted by group if need be (but I haven't in this demo) - Post-workshop activity would be something like a reflective task.
