  Case: Team participation
I teach an afterschool STEAM program which requires team participation. This class gives the students a lot of freedom, however, I have two students in one group that rarely participate. Most of the time the two students are meowing to each other and pretending to be cats. I can get them to participate when I assign them a task that interests them, but this is usually a task I would consider as busy work. I would really like them to get the most out of the group task that I present them with and not just do busy work. How can I get them to participate more and not be a distraction to others?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would say to place each of them in separate groups so that they can be away from one another and also be able to have help from other group members. They may be able to focus better away from each other.
