The Collaborative Study Groups (CSGs) model supports students as they identify a Specific Question from a content area, collaborate to develop and deepen their understanding through Socratic inquiry, and apply their new learning to enhance classroom performance. In addition to the academic benefits, successful CSGs also serve as an independent demonstration of increasing mastery and application of skills built and reinforced through WICOR strategies. These skills include inquiry, note-taking, organization, collaboration, communication, and numerous other skills necessary for college readiness.
