1. How many students worked at a computer?

Anywhere from four to five students. There were approximately five kids in each group. I think I had one or two groups with six. Of course, they all can't sit at the computer and work at the same time. A lot of times, depending on what they were doing, they might need to work together and put information on the computer like when they were doing their spreadsheets and doing those calculations. That was a group activity. One child would run the computer and the other children would give information, because all the children had different jobs for each city. You would have your computer tech who ran the computer when it is was his turn or her turn to run the computer. But, then other times there might be one child looking for specific information and they might delegate the task. One child would be working on the computer, and other children would be working on other components of the project. It just depends on what the group is doing at that particular time.
