text: Collaborative skills is a great ability for students to have. Schools do provide the opportunity for students to grow their collaborative ability and make it their own. For example, there is a high school course called "AVID" which teaches students to use their collaborative skills for questions they dont understand. Students ask questions that might lead them to find an understanding of how the question should be answered. Students also do a lot of presentations with group members for college researches. AVID's main goal for students is to frequently ask questions that they might be confused about. As I mentioned earlier, students being able to work in groups really allows them grow in being able to take a role in their work. Their leadership skills would also be developed giving them responsibility.
