81. >Yahya - Reaching English Language Learners Through Cooperative Learning (I-TESL We present a model of a cooperative learning lesson that allows all levels of ELL In planning cooperative learning, teachers take several roles. http://iteslj.org/Lessons/Yahya-Cooperative.html

The Internet TESL Journal Reaching English Language Learners Through Cooperative Learning Noorchaya Yahya and Kathleen Huie Florida Atlantic University (Boca Raton, Florida, USA) This is a model of a cooperative learning lesson that allows all levels of ELL learners from preproduction to intermediate level to tackle tasks that are appropriate to their language proficiency skills and also that allows each student to take an important part in doing the group's assigned tasks since without each student's expertise, the group's task is incomplete. In planning cooperative learning, teachers take several roles. First, teachers make pre-instructional decisions about grouping students and assigning appropriate tasks. Teachers have to be able to explain both the academic task and the cooperative structure to students and then must monitor and intervene when necessary. Finally, the teacher is also the one who is responsible for evaluating student learning and the effectiveness of each group's work (Cohen, 1998). One fear teachers have about using cooperative learning is that low status students will not participate and/or that high status students will take over the group. Teachers must create groups that are equitable so that all students participate fully and use multiple-ability strategies (Cohen, 1998) if cooperative learning is to work. Teachers also need to convince students of three things: That different intellectual abilities are required in cooperative learning, that no one student has all of the abilities needed, but that each member of the group will have some of the abilities (Cohen, 1998).

84. Collaborative Learning Versus Cooperative Learning His definition provides an unbrella for the work cooperative learning at a wide range of grade levels and at various points in a lesson plan. http://www.city.londonmet.ac.uk/deliberations/collab.learning/panitz2.html

A Definition of Collaborative vs Cooperative Learning Ted Panitz (1996) I have been searching for many years for the Holy Grail of interactive learning, a distinction between collaborative and cooperative learning definitions. I am getting closer to my elusive goal all the time but I am still not completely satisfied with my perception of the two concepts. I believe my confusion arises when I look at processes associated with each concept and see some overlap or inter-concept usage. I will make a humble attempt to clarify this question by presenting my definitions and reviewing those of other authors who have helped clarify my thinking. Collaboration is a philosophy of interaction and personal lifestyle whereas cooperation is a structure of interaction designed to facilitate the accomplishment of an end product or goal. Collaborative learning (CL) is a personal philosophy, not just a classroom technique. In all situations where people come together in groups, it suggests a way of dealing with people which respects and highlights individual group members' abilities and contributions. There is a sharing of authority and acceptance of responsibility among group members for the groups actions. The underlying premise of collaborative learning is based upon consensus building through cooperation by group members, in contrast to competition in which individuals best other group members. CL practitioners apply this philosophy in the classroom, at committee meetings, with community groups, within their families and generally as a way of living with and dealing with other people.

For example, you might select a word processor with built-in graphics for students to write and illustrate a story, using a read-aloud book as a model (Broad, 1991). As we plan this lesson by using computers, you could follow the same lesson-planning format introduced in Chapter 3, but you would also want to be sure that Step 2 includes all of the decisions you must make about assigning students to teams, the size of the teams, the materials needed, and the roles you will use with the groups (Anderson, 1995).

10th Grade Math/English Lesson Plan Topic: Mathematicians and their Contributions Lesson Plan Title: The Life and Works of a Famous Mathematician Rationale and Goals: By working together with their peers, students will practice compromising, listening to others, and sharing their own thoughts, which are important life skills. By seeing how two seemingly different subjects interconnect, students will develop a more holistic view of subject matter and begin making connections on their own. Students will enhance their creativity by writing an original script, and will gain appreciation for math concepts by examining the stories behind them. Behavioral Objectives: Students will: Cognitive: * Recognize the contributions of mathematicians throughout history, and briefly explain their mathematical theories. * Research the life of a mathematician. Affective: * Select an appropriate format to reflect the group's personality. * Connect the mathematician's contributions to his or her own life. Psychomotor: * Write and perform an original script.

Welcome to our Online Courses Department Fall 2004 - course #1 Cooperative Learning in Higher and Adult Education Fall 2004, Course 1 REGISTRATION IS CLOSED Course Overview: This course covers principles and techniques in cooperative learning. In other words, it will assist your understanding of what is involved in helping students learn from each other as one, but certainly not the only, mode of learning. Educators at all levels of education use cooperative learning, although they tailor it to their own level. The emphasis in this particular course on cooperative will be on tailoring cooperative learning for students in higher and adult education. The course is based around the book co-authored by the instructor, A Teacher's Sourcebook on Cooperative Learning . The book has two parts. First is an explanation of eight principles of cooperative learning. Each principle is accompanied by practical suggestions for its implementation. The book’s second part discusses issues and difficulties encountered when implementing cooperative learning and offers responses. The course instructor has taught cooperative learning via distance and face-to-face modes to educators from many different settings (from elementary school to university to the corporate sector) and from many different countries. He has many years experience teaching cooperative learning and is a leader in the field internationally.
