  Case: No Group
I have a student in my classroom that cannot work with anyone. No matter what group or pair she is in, she is not focused, talks too much, doesn't get anything done, and brings her group down with her. I have tried many types of groups and different pairs. What should I do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would try working with the student one on one and try to understand what exactly it is that hinders her from completing the assignment. I would also ask the class to work independently and try to see what she does in that scenario as well. It will likely take some time to find a solution, but I don't think you should give up until you have tried as many solutions as possible. There is always a better fit for a student who is struggling, we just have to take the time to help them find it!
