In didactic terms, aims and means in teaching are most often described as "the what" and "the how" of the teaching activity (Nordenbo, 1997). While I view the aim as the (overarching) purpose or goal of the teaching activity, I interpret means as referring to methods or "tools" for the teacher. In this paper, I will discuss the aims and means of group work.
