    A2 Learning doesn’t happen in isolation. Just because proficiency is assessed individually doesn’t mean we don’t learn together. #sblchat

  • drangelapeery Jan 25 @ 9:18 PM EST
    A2: I think collaboration is important on the way to mastery. And then sometimes you have to pull your own mastery out and show it. #sblchat

    A3 - We see collaborative work as shared or "our" work, though group work is often separated so each Learner has "their" own part. #sblchat
