The Importance of Collaboration

I made a poster out of this and have it hanging in each classroom that I teach. 

The Importance of Collaboration

 

We remember . . .

 

• 10 percent of what we read
• 20 percent of what we hear
• 30 percent of what we see
• 50 percent of what we both see and hear
• 70 percent of what we talk about with others

Thus, the act of collaboration itself raises the reading comprehension of every student in this class.  Let’s collaborate!!
