@llydwll Couldn't agree more. This mentally in education needs to end.

Cooperative learning is about learning how to learn and becoming innovative, we need to work together to succeed in an information education and economy. This is not socialism and it hopefully avoids some of the greed and selfishness of extreme individualism. The fact is we are all members of a society (must be evil because it has the first four letters of socialism! you hilbillies!). Avoid myopia and look at countries that have far better education outcomes - Finland, Australia. Have Fun!

How about LEARNING? Isn't that the main reason for being in school...? Instead of finding some quotes that support a theory, maybe you should actually evaluate it. ;)

Collaborative learning that is well managed can be a very effective method. I thought the video was well made.

Behind the pretty colors and the pretty music lies a sinister undercurrent - socialism. Can its handmaiden - national socialism - lie far behind?

John Dewey was teaching all this 100 years ago. Problem is, he was using these techniques to prepare kids for soclalism. Second problem is, this thing tends to take over. So school is all about the group, not at all about the person. Using some cooperative learning makes sense. But making it into a dogma seems destructive.

You got that right - I think these ideas were popular in Nazi Germany.

have you noticed that all of the kids in that vid was black ? i only watched it upto 0:40

Good video but group work with kids must be closed observed because in some case it makes things worst. But I liked your vieo.

true, cooperative learning aids to the learning. But its not all so good as portrayed. The children are the worst bullies too. It needs careful application and grouping. Many a times, the weakest child may be harmed the most.

Good job with the music and images. I am a teacher and will use this video to motivate other teachers to incorporate cooperative learning regulary

[millschapman]

Great work! We need more videos to promote the benefits of cooperative learning. I realize it took a lot of time to prepare this. CL can be used in int'l conflict resolution too, an untapped link. Check out 1for2 dot org . :)
