Short paper that describes the value of cohort groups in adult education and, more importantly, identifying some key practices: the need to spend time at the beginning developing group relationships, the need to balance both group and individual development, an environment that both supports and challenges, and a way to address tensions within the group. Nothing in this article suggests that cohorts cannot be formed online (though the first condition shows why an initial in-person meeting really helps online cohorts).
