Idea — Pair stronger learners with weaker ones for production tasks; pair same-level learners for accuracy tasks. The goal determines the grouping, not class convention.
Example — Accuracy drill: pair by level so feedback is appropriate. Discussion task: pair mixed so weaker learners gain richer input and stronger learners consolidate.
Try — Deliberately vary your pairing strategy in your next lesson: same-level for controlled practice, mixed-level for freer production.
