Outcomes of
Cooperative Learning
1. Academic achievement
Cooperative learning aims to improve student
performance on important academic tasks.
Higher achievers tutor the lower achievers, thus
providing special help from peers who have the
same youth-oriented interests and language.
3. Social skills
Through cooperative learning, students
develop cooperation and collaboration skills.
What Cooperative
Learning is Not
1. Cooperation is not having students sit side
by side to just talk with one another as they do
their individual assignments.
2. Cooperation is not having students do a task
with instructions that whoever finishes first
must help the slower students.

Learning
Models
1. Group Investigation
This model is based o John Deweys
educational philosophy, which contended that
students can only learn to live in a democratic
society if their education provides them with
actual experience of democratic decision
making and problem solving.
2. JIGSAW II
Based on the work of Aronson and Patnoe
(1997).
Requires students to learn working together to
enhance their total understanding of a topic.
Steps to follow:
a. Inform students that they will be
working in their Jigsaw groups to
achieve the lessons goals.
b. Create heterogeneous groups.
c. Present rules to govern group
behavior.
3. STUDENT TEAMS
ACHIEVEMENT
DIVISION
This model developed by Slavin (1995), is a
form of cooperative learning that uses a multiability team to teach facts concepts, and skills.
Informal Cooperative
Learning Models
Three informal cooperative learning models:
1. Jigsaw I
2. Think-Pair-Share
3. Role Playing
1. Jigsaw 1
Developed by Aronson and Patnoe (1997) to
increase student interdependence. It is
cooperative learning plan in which six-member

2. Think-Pair-Share
- by Frank Lyman et al. (1981)
- This model changes the assumption that all
recitations or discussions need to be held in
whole-group settings.
Think-Pair-Share Strategy
(Lyman, 1989)
Step 1: Thinking
Step2 : Pairing
Step 3: Sharing
Think-Pair-Share Model
(Gunter, Estes, & Schwab)
Step 1: Teacher poses a question
Step 2: Students think individually
Step 3: Each student discusses his/her answer
with a fellow student.
Step 4: Student share their answers with the
whole class
Think-Pair-Share
created by Kagan (1990)
students are required to use academic skills
ThinkPair-Share
(Lasley II, Matczynski, & Rowley, 2002)
a. Provide students with a topic or ideas.
b. Let students reflect independently about the
meaning of the topic.
c. Allow students to pair up with other students
to discuss the topic and share respective
thoughts.
3. Role Playing
This strategy gives the students an
opportunity to work with others in determining
how an individual or group might behave in
response to a particular situation.
players.
Elements of
Cooperative Learning
1. Positive Interdependence
It can be structured through mutual goals
(goal interdependence); division of labor
(task interdependence); division of materials,
resources, or information among group
members (resource interdependence);
3. Individual Accountability
Each member should receive any needed
assessment, feedback, or instructional
assistance.
5. Group Processing
Students must have the time to assess how
well the group is performing and to discuss the
group members actions that are helpful or
unhelpful.
According
to
Arends
(2004),
cooperative learning lessons can be
characterized by the following features:
