Abstract
Have you ever wondered what math discussions look like in an online classroom? Or how about GROUP math discussions in the online classroom? Now that is a challenge! It has long been recognized that teamwork and collaboration are essential skills for successful citizens of our world today. And yet, it is not the norm for current online education courses to include group projects (Morgan, 2014). This challenge was undertaken in 2019 within the two high enrollment math classes at PG, MM150: Survey of Mathematics and MM212: College Algebra. Although historically difficult in the online environment, math discussions and group work have been combined and implemented with success. This presentation will share a reflection of best practices and feedback gained from a year of group discussions in these high enrollment math classes.
