Cooperative learning

Hello again and welcome to my third blog post.

Today we are going to share with one another the topic regarding cooperative learning as a new method of teaching that was widespread on the west world. In addition, we are going to talk also about the benefits it brings into teaching and how successful it is.

As the name indicates itself cooperative means working in groups and in our case through this method the groups should be small ones that work together in order to reach a mutual goal at the very end, to collaborate and succeed by sharing knowledge and also learning from one another’s perspective.

Furthermore, this method of cooperating is really flexible since it has the luxury to be used in every task and activity. Groups work in favor of one another rather than being egotistical and competitive which inspires them to get to know more one another and supporting them by wracking the enclosure and self-isolation or introvert nature that can appear often in different ages. The achievement and good results will be more apparent and also the racial, stereotypes, discrimination in age will be avoided in maximum, for the sake of the sailing into safe waters that would bring accomplishment of the tasks and amelioration regarding their skills and knowledges.

All of these good benefits can be productive when combined with the proper manner and activities that help boosting the social skills and mental ones. I would mention also the interdependency a student can profit even though they work in groups, since every single’s person opinion and work are really worthy and to be appreciated whether would be they that would give a helping hand or would deteriorate the situation and worsen the work of the whole group. On the other hand, this would make them realize that they are really important which as a result they would increase self-esteem in case they lacked it.

It is worthy to mention also that while experimenting with this technique, the results were quite impressive and the productivity in general subjects had a highly noticeable progress. Additionally, the idea that they should work in groups this time differently not to see or expect the failure of the others but to count on their power, to strengthen the bond and achieve more and more.

“They would either sink, or swim to the shore together”

If we would treat the things correctly, and embrace this as a technique in which we would harvest the good seeds, we would be grateful to introduce it to our manners of teaching in the future which appears really convincing, demanding and challenging for both us as a future teacher and our students.

 

Thank you for your time😊.

  1. Hey Klesta! What caught my eye in this post is the caption you included "They would either sink, or swim to the shore together ", it fits the case perfectly. Team work makes the dream work as they say, so if there is no coordination and understanding if one goes down , all the others go with him/her. But this method ensures pozitive outcome. As you have stated the benefits, students learn together so that they can subsequently perform higher as individuals.

  2. Hi Klest. As always you have done a great job. Yes it is true that group work helps a lot to overcome and avoid discrimination between pupils , and that it helps pupils that have some isolation problems to be involved with others. Besides, when pupils cooperate they seem to have more fun and to learn more and better. Way to go! Thanks😜

  6. Hello Klesta. I really liked your work and how you handled the topic. I like the fact that you mentioned that working in a group reduces competition between individuals and increases activity between them. In this way each of us is activated and feels the same with everyone because they are not a little shy and can rarely activate themselves. Very good work and success in other tasks!
