Description

Request from PI Workshop - June 2025 from Vicki Almstrum - almstrum@gmail.com

I would like to have better control over the groupings for discussion. I currently assign specific groups to work together for 2-3 weeks, so it helps me to be able to track each group’s progress over that time. Because sometimes I have students on-line during my live class, I am imagining how to best make this process work with split live-online groups.
