  Case: A dividing line
In a high school gen ed class there are a variety of students from different backgrounds and races. The students sit in clusters of friends that they feel most 'comfortable'. These groups very clearly distinguish the differences between the student, but no one seems to have a problem. As a teacher how could you mix up the classroom setting to allow students to not be divided by differences?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
In my class, I would try monthly rotations. So one month they start in a random group, then when its time for rotation, mix the groups in a way that they will be with other different students. This is a good way to try it, because in a month, the students can get to know one another and make new connections with people.
