Running your virtual study group

  1. Check-in

    Review group norms. This is important to make sure everyone knows the expectations.

    Set goals for today. What do you hope to accomplish during this meeting?

    Check-in with group members. Ask how everyone is feeling. Is there anything we should be aware of?

  2. Work

    Create a schedule to meet all your goals. Make a plan for today and stick with it!

    Make time for breaks. Taking times for breaks will make your work time more focused.

    Stay on topic. You are all here to learn. Make the most of your time together.

  3. Check-out

    Review what was accomplished. Did you cover everything? What was missed?

    Divide roles/tasks for next meeting. Plan what needs to get done before you meet again.

    Check-out activity. Ask how everyone is feeling. Were everyone's needs met?
