Version Differences for RoundRobin Variations
Line 21:
Use for: Timed RoundRobin ensures equal participation. Each student is allotted the same predetermined amount of time. It is best used when there is a lengthy response such as, “Describe your hypothesis and how you plan to test it.” It is great for current events, book reports, and other reports because it equalises teammate share time. Timed RoundRobin is helpful for management since all teams finish at the same time.

'''Continuous RoundRobin:'''
+
1. Teacher assigns a topic or question with multiple possible responses.
+
2. In teams, students respond orally each taking a turn contributing one idea.
+
3. After all teammates have responded, students respond again contributing another idea. Continuous RoundRobin resumes for multiple turns.
+
Use for: Continuous RoundRobin is useful when there are many items and the students are generating an oral list. “Name prime numbers.” “What are all the possible causes (or consequences) of that historical event?”
+
'''AllWrite RoundRobin:'''
+
1. Teacher assigns a topic or question with multiple possible responses.
+
2. In teams, students respond orally each taking a turn contributing one idea.
+
3. All teammates record the shared idea on their own papers.
+
Use for: AllWrite RoundRobin results in a written record for each student. For example, if the students are generating a list, each student has their own paper and pencil and as they name each item, each student writes it down. Students can use their lists for later independent work. The difference between AllWrite RoundRobin and RoundTable Consensus is that with AllWrite RoundRobin each student writes on her/his own paper whereas in RoundTable Consensus there is one paper and pencil passed around the group and each student in turn records an idea once the team has reached consensus.
