Den som själv är aktiv lär sig mer än den som bara lyssnar på andra. Därför jobbar jag mycket med tvärgrupper på olika sätt i min undervisning. Grundidén är att alla studenter ska få möjlighet att prata mycket samtidigt som de blir motiverade att själva ta ansvar för samtalet och därmed för sitt eget lärande.
