It’s All About Engagement!Five Basic Elements of Cooperative Learning
• Positive Interdependence• Face-To-Face Interaction• Individual Accountability• Social Skills• Group Processing
Positive Interdependence promotes a cooperative and caring learning community in which
students work together, are supportive, and encourage each other to learn and succeed.
Some ways to create interdependence include:
• Assigning different necessary roles to each student (Sage-N-Scribe)• Assigning different access to materials to each student (Pair
Projects in which one has the scissors and another the glue)• Providing different essential information to each student (Jigsaw
Problem Solving)• Limiting the time so that no one person can complete the task
alone (Brainstorming)• Increasing the task difficulty so no one person can complete the
task alone (Team Project requiring coordination of efforts)• Designing tasks with cumulative contributions (RoundRobin
Storytelling: Each teammate in turn adds a sentence to the team story)
• Having students teach each other (Telephone, Partners, Jigsaw)Kagan, S. The Two Dimensions of Positive Interdependence. San Clemente, CA: Kagan Publishing. Kagan Online Magazine, Fall 2007. www.KaganOnline.com
