Context
There are multiple learning resources available for each assignment so struggling students can access additional resources for help. Since students are grouped in heterogeneous teams, and the teams check in at the beginning of each class to discuss their goals, students are aware of the progress their teammates have made and can ask them for help as needed. The classroom expectation is that students will ask teammates for help before they ask the teacher for help.
