This book brings together a range of international studies to
support the implementation of cooperative group work in the
classroom. In spite of extensive research into the benefits of this
approach, in many countries, it is not widely used, largely due to
a lack of understanding of how to put this into practice in the
classroom. Starting from an exploration of the theoretical
perspectives that underpin this pedagogy, the challenges for
including pupils with special educational needs and related status
issues of pupils are explored. Amongst the themes explored are how
creative approaches, such as Storyline, support engagement
particularly for second language learning; how working with young
children using cooperative group work can develop writing skills;
and how teachers can work together in an effective, collaborative,
and sustained manner in a professional learning community. The
final chapter provides a vivid example of one teacher's personal
journal to develop her understanding of the power of cooperation in
creating bridges to meaningful learning for all learners. This book
was originally published as a special issue of Education 3-13.
