Short description

Two people are learning together a subject.

Process description

First, the participants must be divided into groups, then a time limit has to be set; for example: You have 10 minutes. What can be learned together?

One possibility: each group works with the content of a learning station.

Another possibility: each group solves the tasks of a learning station.

Required resources

Nothing special

Examples

Extreme Programming: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extreme_Programming

Comments

When two programmers sit in front of a single computer and develop a software program, we are talking about extreme programming. Four eyes see more than two. Two brains are better than one! Each can learn from the other.

Reflection

Which planet orbits the moon?
