Description:

Buzz group is a active learning technique that can be used for brainstorming ideas in a short period of time involving a small group (it could range from 2-3 people to 4-6 people per group). The larger the group, the longer it takes for the group to decide or agree on certain ideas/solutions.

Unlike Think-Pair-Share, Buzz Group does not require individuals to think on their own first. In a classroom, Buzz Group allows students to think collectively on the question or task given to them. To avoid free-riders in an activity using Buzz Group, teachers could limit the number of students per group to 2-3 people only.
