__ ** Jigsaw __
​ This activity is characterised by participants within a cooperative group each becoming expert on different aspects of one topic of study. 1. Before presenting and teaching to the cooperative group, students form //Expert Groups //, comprised of individuals from different cooperative groups who have the same assigned topic. 2. Together, expert partners study their topic and plan effective ways to teach important information when they return to their cooperative groups. 3. One way of teaching is for the expert group to display their information on paper. 4. Participants return to their cooperative groups and then take their cooperative group on a Gallery Tour (walk around the room) to each display. 5. Or participants can return to their cooperative groups and teach all members of their group as they are now the experts.
