Notes
Cooperative learning: Teaching learners to like and Care for One Another (260)
WHAT IS COOPERATIVE LEARNING? (260)
o Instructional procedures whereby learners work together in small
groups and are rewarded for their collective accomplishments.
(260)
o Each team has 4 until 6 members
o Team task collectively learn or master contents from teacher.
PURPOSE AND CHARACTERISTICS OF COOPERATIVE LEARNING (260)
o All for one, one for all! The Three Musketeers
o General key characteristics:
The way the groups or teams are made up
The kinds of tasks they do
The groups' rules of behavior
Their motivation and reward systems
o [TEAM] Teams must be mixed in terms of gender, academic ability,
race, and other traits.
Cooperative learning is based partly on the humanistic school
of thought about learning.
Each member will have an equal opportunity to learn, since
"talent" is about equally distributed to each group.
Students with lower abilities are more likely to improve their
achievement in mixed groups than in homogeneous groups.
o [TASK] Kinds of tasks teachers typically assign to the teams.
Each team to master material the teacher presented
previously
Ask teams to work on projects
o [RULES] Rules of behavior required of team members.
Individual responsibility and accountability to oneself and the
team
Support and encouragement of team members
Peer helping and tutoring
Cooperation.
o [REWARD] Rather than a mark based on personal effort, the
individual receives a mark based on the team's achievement.
