Small groups of students work collaboratively on an experiment or problem and write their results using dry-erase markers on a whiteboard. (Small transportable whiteboards work best.) Students should use a variety of alternative representations, especially drawings and graphs. The white boards and results are shared with all the groups at a “board meeting”. All groups can see the other boards and the students in each group take turns explaining their work to other groups. Whiteboarding was originally developed as an integral component of Modeling Instruction but can be used in any classroom and has been shown to be very effective in getting students actively engaged.
