Team Completion
of Internal Flow Jigsaw Questions
One way to reduce the work that all of us have to do to
learn new material is to divide up the material, each of
us become an “expert” on a small area, and then share
what we’ve learned with others. This active learning
technique is commonly referred to as a Jigsaw because,
like a jigsaw puzzle, each of us contributes a small
piece of knowledge that helps everyone understand the
big picture.
As a team, you are to work together to complete the
Internal Flow Jigsaw questions. Each student must
complete his/her own question as the team works together
to find the answers. Teams may choose to take the jigsaw
approach one step further here and use that method to
complete these questions. In other words, the team
members may choose to divide up the questions and then
come together to share their answers prior to the
instructor bringing the class back together again.

Class Sharing of Internal Flow Jigsaw Questions in
Relation to the Two Different Flow Regimes
Once students have had sufficient time to complete these
questions—approximately 30 to 45 minutes—the professor
will pull them back together and ask them to share the
answers in relation to the two different flow regimes.
Students should be making any necessary corrections to
their own answers and also taking notes about the flow
that their team did not cover. Each student’s paper
should include answers about both laminar and turbulent
flow.

Collection of One Team Paper
At the end of the class, the instructor will randomly
select one member from each team to turn in his/her
completed set of questions. The entire group will
receive a grade for this one paper. Because this
selection will be random, teams must make sure that each
member is participating and writing down the
group-determined answers on his/her copy of the question
sheet. Please be sure that all members understand the
questions and answers.
