1. Knows the characteristics of effective collaboration to promote comprehension
Collaboration in the classroom helps students develop speaking and listening skills while deepening their understanding of content. When students work with partners or groups, they learn how to express ideas clearly, listen actively, ask thoughtful questions, and build on others’ ideas. Effective collaboration supports comprehension because students hear, process, and discuss information in multiple ways.
