  Case: Group Work
How should I decide which students should pair up and do group work together? One student that is high and one that is low? Etc.?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think there are different options, you want to pair students together that you know are going to work well together. I wouldn't necessarily choose high and low, because that can be unfair to some students. Also not students who you know are going to mess around and talk the whole time without getting work done, and mix them up every time. In my class, the students have a clock with a different partner for each time and when I say get with your 4 o'clock person they do and they cannot argue with the method.

Comments: This method may be the best solution, as it avoids placing students together who might act up and also considers whether the pairs would be effective towards each of their learning.
