Description¶
The primer advises that teachers "must provide structure and support to promote socially shared regulation of learning in a classroom rather than expecting it to occur naturally." Teachers should first show students how to identify challenges where socially shared regulation may help, then employ specific strategies and model solutions, using "sentence starters, classroom norm posters, guided questions, and prompts to help students address challenges."
Design Implications¶
Context¶

Target Learning Goals¶
- Navigating social, cognitive, and emotional challenges of collaboration
Related Strategies¶
