What is Cooperative Learning Approach?
5 Key Steps in Conducting Cooperative Learning Approach
PRE- INSTRUCTIONAL PLANNING
INTRODUCE THE ACTIVITY TO THE STUDENTS
MONITOR AND INTERVENE
ASSESSMENT
PROCESS
Explain the academic task to them and what the criteria are for success.
Prior planning helps to establish the specific cooperative learning technique to be used and lays the foundation for effective group work.
This is where you let the groups run while you circulate through the room to collect observation data, see whether they understand the assignment, give immediate feedback and praise for working together.
Some informal assessment is already done while you are monitoring the groups during the exercise.
Group processing involves asking the groups to rate their own performance and set goals for themselves to improve their cooperative work.

common fateknow that one’s performance is mutually
caused by oneself and one’s team membersfeel proud and jointly celebrate when a group
member is recognized for achievement.
Effects/Results
Model of Cooperative Learning
Cooperative Learning
Forms attitudes and values
Provides models of prosocial behavior
Presents alternative perspectives and viewpoints

Builds a coherent and integrated identity
Resulting in
Improved collaborative skills

TRADITIONAL LEARNING GROUP VS
COOPERATIVE LEARNING GROUP
TRADITIONAL LEARNING GROUPS
COOPERATIVE LEARNING GROUPS
Focus is on individual performance only.
Group members compete with each other and withhold information - "If you succeed, I loose."
Only individual accomplishments are rewarded.
Focus is on group performance.
Each group member believes that they cannot succeed unless the other members of the group succeed (and visa versa) - If you win, I win!"Group as well as individual accomplishments are rewarded.
Assignments are discussed with little commitment to each other's learning.
Group members help, assist, encourage, and support each other's efforts to learn.
Individual accountability only -- I don't care if the other members in the group learn.
Both group and individual accountability.Members hold self and others accountable for high quality work.
TRADITIONAL LEARNING GROUPS
COOPERATIVE LEARNING GROUPS
Social skills are assumed or ignored.
One person often "takes charge" and does all the work.
Teamwork skills are emphasized -- members are taught and expected to use collaborative skills.
Leadership shared by all members.
No processing of how well the group is functioning or the quality of its work.
Students have time and are given a procedure to analyze how well their groups are functioning, how well they are using the appropriate social skills, and how to improve the quality of their work together.
Little or no attention to group formation (students often select members).
Groups typically large (5-10 members).
Teacher ignores groups.
Teacher assigns students to heterogeneous groups.
Groups are typically small (3 - 5 members).
Teacher observes and intervenes when necessary.
Cooperative learning activities can instill in your learners:
Outcomes of Cooperation
ATTITUDES AND VALUES- Cooperative learning is important
in helping learners acquire from the curriculum the basic attitudes and values they need to think independently inside and outside of your classroom.
Outcomes of Cooperation
PROSOCIAL BEHAVIOR- Cooperative learning brings
learners together in adult like settings which, when carefully planned and executed, can provide appropriate models of social behavior.
Outcomes of Cooperation
ALTERNATIVE PERSPECTIVES AND VIEWPOINTS
- Cooperative learning provides the context or “meeting ground” where many different viewpoints can be orchestrated, from which we form more articulate attitudes and values.
Outcomes of Cooperation
INTEGRATED IDENTITY- Cooperative learning can be the
start of stripping away the irrelevant, overly dramatic, and superficial appendages that mask our deepest thoughts and feelings.
Outcomes of Cooperation
HIGHER THOUGHT PROCESSES- Cooperative learning actively
engages the student in the learning process and seeks to improve the critical thinking, reasoning, and problem solving skills of the learner.
Outcomes of Cooperation
COMPONENTS OF A COOPERATIVE LEARNING ACTIVITY
1) Specifying the GOAL of the activity.2) Structuring the task.3) Teaching the collaborative process.4) Monitoring group performance.5) Debriefing.
Cooperative Task Structure
1- Specifying the goal
Identify the outcome
Check for understanding
Set a cooperative tone
2- Structuring the task

Factors
3- Teaching and Evaluating the Collaborative Process
At the heart of the collaborative skills is the ability to exchange thoughts and feelings with each other at the same conceptual level. Students need to feel comfortable in communicating their ideas, beliefs and opinions to others in a timely and efficient manner.
4- Monitoring Group Performance
TEACHER’S ROLES:• to see that each group remains on track.• to redirect group efforts when needed.• to provide emotional support and encouragement.
5- Debriefing
Openly talking about how the groups functioned during the cooperative activity.
Soliciting suggestions for how the process could be improved.
Obtaining the viewpoints of predesignated observers.
COOPERATIVE LEARNING STRATEGIES
RESEARCH SUPPORTING COOPERATIVE LEARNING
1) Positive Interdependence Students realize that each
individual affects the work and success of the others. The work is structured so that students must share information in order to complete their cooperative tasks.
Essentials
