She knows that if addressed, students can really learn a lot from each other's points of view. She also knows that an insensitive comment here or there from any student can cause great division within the group of students. She decides to get the students working together toward a common goal. She gives the class an assignment and then gives the students various pieces of information. The intent is to have students talk with each other to find out which piece of information each has, eventually putting together all the pieces that they need to complete the assignment.
