Abstract

Blended learning and group learning are learning strategies that are widely applied in the contemporary educational process. However, group learning often becomes ineffective if it is not managed properly. This paper aims to analyze the practices in forming an effective group learning in blended learning, the strategy for establishing an effective group learning, and the ideal group size. The research method used in this paper is a literature review. The analysis results indicate there are requirements in order to form an effective group learning in blended learning. The requirements consist of a strategy that will enable all students to be actively and purposefully involved in achieving learning goals, supervision and assistance in completing assignments by tutors, the use of an appropriate online learning platform to accommodate group work, and timely feedback. Effective groups can be formed by structuring diverse group membership based on ability, gender, and ethnicity. Each group member is responsible for achieving individual learning goals and contributing to the group project. The appropriate group size will determine the effectiveness of group performance. The conclusion obtained is that group effectiveness in blended learning can be achieved by appointing leaders in groups, having a clear division of tasks, determining group work agendas, using appropriate platforms, and encouraging active participation of students and tutors. An effective study group has diverse members consisting of three to five people who are responsible for completing assigned tasks.
