Description

Practical guide for teachers wishing to implement cooperative learning processes as opposed to the more traditional individualised and competitive learning environments. Four broad areas where cooperative skills are needed are identified and discussed. They include forming groups, working and problem solving as a group, and managing differences. Includes a list of references and further reading suggestions, sheets that can be photocopied, and an index. Susan Hill is a senior lecturer in curriculum studies at the South Australian College of Advanced Education and Peter Hill is a psychologist and lecturer in Human Development.
