Cooperative LearningCooperative learning refers to a learning process where people study in groups to share knowledge and work together to achieve their common goal. It focuses on teamwork, allowing the students to interact freely with one another to succeed as a group. Cooperative learning is a successful education strategy for people with different levels of learning ability to improve their understanding of a certain subject or project either at work or at school. In this setting, a group of people or students will work on a project assigned by an instructor. They will learn the necessary interpersonal life-skills and develop the ability to learn from each other, which are essential skills needed in most working environments. In cooperative learning, a student can learn how work is delegated in any organization. Each person in the group is given a specific task to complete which will be a part of the entire project. The students in cooperative learning will work together to finish the task or assignment given by the teacher in a certain amount of time. This enables the students to learn specific responsibilities while giving them a clear understanding of the requirements of the entire project. Cooperative learning is a way of helping students deal with the differences in abilities and personalities in a group working environment. It gives the students a feeling of success that they can cooperate with each other and learn from their strengths and weaknesses. With cooperative learning, those with learning disabilities can work and learn together with students who are more gifted. In the real world, people need the necessary social skills in order to work together in harmony. Cooperative learning will prepare students to deal with the real working world by teaching them how to interact and cooperate with one another to achieve success as a team. |
