Real Reading is Fun and Fundamental

Description

Research strongly suggests that when group activities are organized in line with cooperative learning principles, multiple benefits accrue. These include increased learning, improved attitude toward school, deeper thinking, greater liking of other ethnic groups, and higher self-esteem. This practically-oriented course utilizes the internet to explain cooperative learning principles and techniques and explore their application to participants’ own teaching contexts. You will read selections from the text, watch a video online on the topic, explore relevant web resources, consider how to deal with difficulties that may arise in using cooperative learning, and do lesson planning. All assignments are submitted electronically and as they are performed.
