Cooperative Learning with the
Computer
Reality dictates that school face the fact that
each classroom, especially in public or government schools, may not be equipped
with appropriate number of computers.
The creativity of the teacher will have to respond to the situation, and so cooperative learning will likely be the answer to the implementation of IT supported learning in our schools.
What is Cooperati
ve Learning?
• is learning by small groups of students who work together in a common learning task. It is also called Group Learning.
Cooperative or Collaborative Learning
• A common goal• Interdependence• Interaction• Individual accountability• Social skills
5 Elements are needed to be truly cooperative
learning:
• Encourages active learning, while motivating students.
Advantages of Cooperative
Learning
• Increases academic performance.
• Promotes literacy and language skills.
• Improves teachers effectiveness.
• In addition, there are studies which show that cooperative learning enhances:
1. Personal and social development among students.
2. Self- esteem3. Social relations
between racially and culturally different students.
COOPERATIVE LEARNING AND THE
COMPUTER• Based on a study
conducted, researchers agree that the computer is a natural learning vehicle for cooperative (at times called promotive) learning.
•Given the option to work individually or in a group, the students generally wish to work together in computer-based and non-computer-based activities.
• Reflecting on this, psychologists
think the computer fosters
this positive social behavior because
it has a display monitor – where
they look something in
common.
Components of Cooperative Learning
• Educators are still wary about the computer’s role in cooperative learning. Thus they pose the position that the use of computers do not automatically result in cooperative learning.
• There therefore assign the teacher several tasks in order to ensure collaborative learning. -Assigning students to mixed-ability teams-Establishing positive interdependence-Teaching cooperative social skills-Insuring individual accountability, and-Helping groups process information
• These are in addition to assigning a common work goal in which each member of the group will realize that their group will not succeed unless everyone contributes to the groups’ success.
• It is also important for the teacher limits learning group clusters (six is the ideal number in a group) so there can be closer involvement in thinking and learning.
“We all do better when we work together. Our differences do matter, but our common humanity matters
more.” ―Bill Clinton
