| Chapter 7: Cooperative Learning | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Cooperative learning is a very good strategy when the group has a large amount of work to do and each one of them cooperates with a part of it. Each one of the components needs to interact with each other, working together, getting feedback from each other, updating each one on how the work is being conducting, and having group objectives. This group support can be really helpful because each one can cooperate with different points of view and information making the final results a joint of group efforts with better results that one person would do it. Group skills needs to be taught like responsibilities, respect, interaction, accountability, interdependence, and interpersonal and small group skills. The best group is small and heterogeneous. Teachers can use this technique in a variety of ways in many different situations; however not overusing it. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
