Cooperative Learning for Intercultural Classrooms helps both pre-service and in-service teachers to develop a well-researched pedagogy that supports inclusive practice for a globalised world. It provides: an overview of theoretical perspectives that illustrate why cooperative learning is an effective learning strategy; reviews research findings about how cooperative learning supports inclusion; and outlines the strategies and methods that support teachers in putting cooperative learning into practice.
Providing a step-by-step guide to implementing cooperative learning for schools, teachers and teacher educators, this invaluable resource includes:
guidelines for a staged approach to implementation;
case studies of cooperative learning in classrooms from a range of different contexts, including Australia, England, Sweden, Italy, India, Singapore and Hong Kong;
guidance on developing an effective professional development programme for a school;
appendices with valuable information on a range of cooperative learning structures and explanations of the main types of cooperative learning used in classrooms.
