What are the pros and cons of using written exercises in groups?

What will be an ideal response?


The pros of using written exercises are that it gives members time to think through their answers while writing and prevents them from feeling "on the spot" when sharing. Some potential cons are that members with lower literacy levels, such as children or adults who cannot read, may have difficulty processing the information and providing a written response to the activity. Also, it may take more time, in general, for members to think through their answers and respond.
