I've been going back and forth on my final topic and have talked to many colleagues to get ideas. I've finally settled on one concerning collaborative grouping, specifically "Does grouping by gender make a difference in student performance?".
MIddle school is such a crazy time, with kids often focusing more on the social and impressing the cute boy or girl in class, than on academics. Will putting them in single gender groups help them keep their mind on their assignment and off of their social life? I guess I'll find out.
