Bringing Collaboration and Differentiation into the College Classroom
Ashley Stich
Journal of College Academic Support Programs, v1 n1 p55 2018
Review stations are an easy way to begin incorporating small group instruction into the college classroom. The use of review stations allows for collaboration, physical participation, and critical thinking (Hennessy & Evans, 2006; Tinto, 1997). Recent research also suggests small-group activities can build student self-awareness and comfort in the classroom (Leisey, Mulcare, Comeford, & Kudrimoti, 2014; Yamauchi, Taira, & Trevorrow, 2016). During a typical review station day, students participate in three to four stations for 10-15 minutes each. In these stations, students explore the content they have been learning in new and engaging ways. The time spent in stations allows everyone in class the opportunity to get into deeper conversations regarding the concepts and skills that are being practiced. Review stations can serve as an important part of college students' active learning.
