Cooperative Learning

“Cooperative Learning”

Students work together in small groups and learn through interaction with each other while the teacher coaches the process.
5 Major Phases
  1. Organize student teams with clearly defined roles
  2. Facilitate team activities, including academic learning, social skills & cooperative behavior
  3. Assess student knowledge throughout the process and/or by team presentations
  4. Recognize both group & individual efforts such as active participation and taking responsibility for learning
Phase 1:  Goals, Hook & Introduction
ž  The 3 instructional goals of cooperative learning are:
1.     Academic achievement,
