Effective Group Work:  Beyond Cooperative Learning Focus of this session
Cooperative learning involves group work   But not all group work involves Cooperative learning. Remember
Some of the main characters    David and Roger Johnson (Researcher) five basic elements   Robert Slavin (Researcher) complex structures - TAI, STAD   Elizabeth Cohen (Researcher) complex instruction   Shlomo Sharan (Researcher) group investigation   Jeanne Gibbs TRIBES   Spencer Kagan less complex structures
Johnsons Five Basic Elements   individual accountability   promoting face to face interaction   teaching collaborative skills   processing academic and collaborative objectives   applying one or more of the 9 types of  positive interdependence
Johnsons 9 types of Positive Interdependence   Goal (must be clear)   Resource   Incentive   Role   Sequence   Identity   Outside Force   Environmental   Simulation
Johnsons Creative Controversy or  Academic Controversy One of the most complex small-group structures Steps: 1. Select an issue for the controversy 2. Students are placed in groups of 4 or 6 (5 is fine) 3. Students letter off A1, A2, (A3) / B1, B2 (B3) 4. Plan arguments 5. Present arguments 6. Plan rebuttal 7. Present rebuttal 8. Flip sides and repeat steps 4 to 7 9. Round Robin re group consensus 10. Groups share, class discussion
A consideration  Cooperative learning is not an instructional strategy; rather, it is a way of thinking that supports students working in peer-mediated groups. It represents one of three approaches to classroom work.  The other two are having students working individually or competitively. These three possibilities (cooperative, individual and competitive) represent the science of teaching. The art of teaching is deciding which of the three (or combinations of the three) are the most powerful in increasing the life chances and learning chances of students.
Possibilities Is it possible for what we know about brain research, multiple intelligences, the Johnsons 5 basic elements,  how to frame questions, safety, accountability,  fish bone diagram, place mat, one stay rest stay, checking for understanding, round robin, numbered heads, inductive thinking, Blooms taxonomy etc., to be integrated in say a 45 minute opportunity to learn?
How complex is simplicity ? Take Think Pair Share for example -- two students taking time to first think, then share with each other, then to share with the class -- what are all the things a teacher should consider if Think Pair Share is going to be effective?
What the university students said  Is there an odd or even number of students? Who will work with the odd person? Who works with the student no one wants to work with? Will boys sit beside girls? If so, will they talk? Can they actively listen? Can they paraphrase? Can the teacher frame questions effectively? How much wait time will the students get? Can the teacher play with a taxonomy of thinking? Can you respond to students responses: a no response, incorrect response, partially correct, a guess, a  convoluted response,  or a correct response?
Dimensions of Cooperative Learning Different Needs - eg Structures Planning -  eg Basic Elements Safety - eg Tribes
There are about 300  small  group structures  How many can  you identify in one minute?
Structures  simple to more complex   numbered heads (Kagan)   think pair share (Lyman)   three person interview (Kagan)   teams games tournament (de Vries)   jigsaw (Aronson)   academic controversy (Johnsons)   group investigation (Thelan)
How are all the things in this bowl the same?   Multiple Intelligence   Learning Styles Literature   Child Development Literature   Motivation Research   Students  at Risk Literature   Research on students with Autism   Research on gender and literacy
How are these different from the previous grouping?   Mind Mapping   Concept Attainment   Jigsaw   Group Investigation   Reading Recovery   Concept Mapping   Academic Controversy
  Mind Mapping   Concept Attainment   Jigsaw   Group Investigation   Reading Recovery   Concept Mapping   Academic Controversy   Multiple Intelligence   Learning Styles Literature   Child Development Literature   Motivation Research   Students  at Risk Literature   Research on students with Autism   Research on gender and literacy What is their relationship?
