Lesson Plans

Cooperative Learning Lessons for the ClassroomThe Cooperative Instructional strategies that follow were created by FCCJ faculty during Foundations and Advanced training sessions in the 1998-1999 academic year and from 2003-4.These lessons are from both liberal arts and the applied arts. They demonstrate how learning situations can be structured cooperatively so that students are inspired to work together to achieve shared goals, thus maximizing each other’s learning. These instructional strategies highlight the professor’s role in structuring a cooperative lesson: making pre-instructional decisions, orchestrating the academic task, monitoring the lesson and assessing the results Each lesson plan contains the five basic elements of cooperative learning: Positive interdependence, Individual accountability, Promote Interaction, Teamwork Skills, and Group Processing. Specific Implementation NOTES are provided when possible.
