Here’s one tip I found helpful throughout the semester. Groups should try to change things up a bit with their meeting atmosphere. Instead of always meeting in the library or classroom, we’d head to a sandwich shop, or a Starbucks, and one time we even went out for Thai food. It creates a friendly atmosphere. We were social when we got there, but then we got down to business and got things done. It was great for bonding as a group and it worked really well for us!
