Here is one method I have used in HS that is fairly successful,  I assign a
set of problems for homework.  for this example lets say 12 problems.  I then
have each lab group (6 in total) randomly assigned two of the problems.  They
break up in their group, compare their results for the two problems, and are
then required to write out the solution that then decide on on an overhead!
 It is then fairly simple to go through the overheads, review the HW, and
answer any questions.  This can usually be acomplished in a period, and if
the overheads are well done, you can keep then for as examples of excellent
student solutions.
