Cooperative learning is a successful teaching strategy in

which small teams use a variety of learning activities to

improve their understanding of a subject. Cooperative

learning incorporates everyone, non- discriminatory of level.

Each member of a team is responsible for not only learn-ing

what is taught, but also for helping their teammates learn!

In turn, a glorious atmosphere of achievement is created.

Students work through the assignment until all group

members successfully understand and complete it.

The smaller the size of the group, the greater the individual accountability may be. • Giving an individual test to each student. • Randomly examining students orally by calling on one student to present his or her group's work to the teacher (in the presence of the group) or to the entire class.

Cooperative learning is a wonderful way in which students are individually and group motivated. Cooperative learning activities are a sure way for students to give and receive ideas and work together towards a mutual goal. Achievement of these goals accounts for a positive atmosphere and the willingness to encourage. By working hard together, each small effort plays a role in creating something much larger and quite beautiful.
