  • What makes cooperative learning different from most instructional methods is that it is based on social interdependence theory and the related research. Social interdependence theory provides educators with a conceptual framework for understanding how cooperative learning may be (a) most fruitfully structured, (b) adapted to a wide variety of instructional situations, and (c) applied to a wide range of issues (such as achievement, ethnic integration, and prevention of drug abuse).
  • There are at least three general theoretical perspectives that have guided research on cooperation--cognitive-developmental, behavioral, and social interdependence. The cognitive developmental perspective is largely based on the theories of Piaget and Vygotsky. The work of Piaget and related theorists is based on the premise that when individuals co-operate on the environment, socio-cognitive conflict occurs that creates cognitive disequilibrium, which in turn stimulates perspective-taking ability and cognitive development. The work of Vygotsky and related theorists is based on the premise that knowledge is social, constructed from cooperative efforts to learn, understand, and solve problems.

  • the essence of a group is the interdependence among members (created by common goals)
  • drive for goal accomplishment that motivates cooperative and competitive behavior.
  • ocial interdependence exists when individuals share common goals and each individual's outcomes are affected by the actions of the others (Deutsch, 1949, 1962; Johnson & Johnson, 1989). It may be differentiated from social dependence (i.e., the outcomes of one person are affected by the actions of a second person but not vice versa) and social independence (i.e., individuals' outcomes are unaffected by each other's actions). There are two types of social interdependence: cooperative and competitive. The absence of social interdependence and dependence results in individualistic efforts.
  • 1. Working together cooperatively to accomplish shared learning goals. When a situation is structured cooperatively, individuals' goal achievements are positively correlated;
  • 2. Working against each other to achieve a goal that only one or a few can attain. When a situation is structured competitively, individuals work against each other to achieve a goal that only one or a few can attain.
  • 3. Working by oneself to accomplish goals unrelated to the goals of others. When a situation is structured individualistically, there is no correlation among participants' goal attainments.

    Good source for information on collaborative grouping. Johnson and Johnson make an argument for collaborative learning so strong one would hesitate not to build group activities into a course curriculum
