Group Work • Stay on task • Criticize ideas – not people • Ex: your stupid, that is lame, or laughing at another person. • Instead: Offer your opinion, be open to discussion. • Work Equally • Ask questions • Try to understand the other persons point of view • Show interest in what the other person is saying • Make eye contact • Listen and respond • “Thank you for sharing” • “I like your ideas” • Stay in your group
