- In the previous lesson, student-centered classroom was
emphasized. In connection, this lesson deals with cooperative learning.
Cooperative or collaborative learning is learning by small groups of students
who work together in a common learning task. By this, there are five elements
needed. These are: a common goal, interdependence Interaction, individual
accountability and social skills. Cooperative learning really enhances personal
and social development among students of all ages. Going back to the computer, researchers
have made studies on the learning interaction between the student and the
computer. It has been said that computer may foster student learning in
isolation that hinders the development of the student's social skills.
E
- I have experience doing a computer work with a partner. We
have a common goal, and that is to make a ppt presentation for our report. By
that, I can see evidently that there is really a cooperative learning among students
when working with a computer. Same also when we do this to our students. Actually,
there are a lot we can get out of working with a computer. If we want our
students to be collaborative and cooperative we might as well let them have
computer works.
R
- Cooperative and collaborative learning can foster skills
and attitudes certainly on the society. School, as a home and teachers as
parents should really impart something to their students. Letting the students
work together would be as well healthy in learning something. As what a quote
says "more heads are better than one" and so teachers will just
become facilitators in the classroom and let the students do hands-on learning
or the so-called experiential learning.
A
- To have a healthy learning environment the teacher must
let his/her students be in groups or in pairs. Learning is very broad, learning
couldn't be achieve in a snap and it is very better to have a cooperative
relationships between students of the same classrooms. So teachers! This is a very
big challenge to let our students explore and experience hands-on learning with
the use of computers.
