What is a jigsaw?
In the jigsaw form of instruction, the target material is divided,
usually into four parts, and distributed to small groups to learn.

When these homogeneous groups have mastered their material, students regroup into heterogeneous groups to present material and complete a task.

Peer teaching and group problem solving are used to complete the jigsaw. Both individual and group accountability are built into this methodology.
