DESCRIPTION:Dr. Steven F. WolfAssistant Professor\, East Carolina Universit
 y\,Department of Physics\, Greenville\, NC 27858AbstractGroup work is ofte
 n a critical component of how we ask students to interact while learning i
 n active and interactive environments.  A common-sense extension of this f
 eature is the inclusion of group assessments.  Moreover\, one of the key s
 cientific practices involve the development of collaborative working relat
 ionships.  As instructors\, we should be cognizant of our classes developm
 ent in the social crucible of our classroom\, along with their development
  of cognitive and/or problem solving skills.  This talk presents a network
  analysis of group exam data from a two-class introductory physics sequenc
 e. In each class\, on each of four exams\, students took an individual ver
 sion of the exam and then reworked the exam with classmates. Students reco
 rded their collaborators before submitting the exam\, and these reports ar
 e used to build directed networks. The networks are partitioned using posi
 tional analysis\, which looks for similarities in linking behavior to dete
 ct blocks of actors in a network. By calculating the block structure for e
 ach exam and mapping over time\, it is possible to see a stabilizing socia
 l structure in the two-class sequence. Some students appear to find a cohe
 rent group immediately\, while others take longer\, but almost all student
 s settle into a regular set of collaborators by the second semester. We wi
 ll discuss this evolving block structure\, what it suggests about the soci
 al positions available to students in the classes\, and how social positio
 n connects to exam grades.WebEx Meeting link:https://wright.webex.com/wrig
