In world of teaching and learning there is interaction between students to students. We call this interaction as interaction pattern.
There are two interaction patterns in teaching and learning. They are group-work/pair-work and individual work. Group-work/pair-work is an interaction pattern where learners work with their partners to learn something. Meanwhile, individual work is an interaction pattern placing learners to do a task individually.
