While students are working, the teacher monitors progress and levels of
cooperation. When a group has difficulty, the teacher should advise
members on how to work cooperatively and use other groups as models
of effective collaborators. When students complete their drafts and
visuals, group members work together to revise and edit their own and
each other’s work for accuracy, coherence, and clarity. After all students
produce a final draft of their work, the class convenes to arrange the
written and visual elements together to create the newspaper. Figure 15.3
(p. 192) shows how a high school teacher used the Learning by Committee
strategy with her students.
