Description: Set up movable whiteboards or designate space on whiteboards around the room for different groups. Put students into groups and give each group a specific question or problem to solve. Then once each group has solved their own problem or answered their own question, they move to the next whiteboard and see the question and answer of the other group. Then they answer the question themselves or say whether they agree or disagree with the answer the previous group came up with and why.
