Here are a couple ideas for how to implement cooperative learning in the classroom:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Using Jigsaw, students can learn about the different periodic trends, what drives them, and how to recognize them. Then, the students get back into their groups and present their specific trend either through a lecture, pictures\/visuals, or any other way that get&#8217;s their point across<\/li>\n<li>Using Guided Reciprocal Learning, propose a mystery! Allow the students to break up into teams and try to solve the mystery using concepts they have learned in the past (but don&#8217;t give them the answer I guess)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/1.cdn.edl.io\/1X6KfbVD6bPd7QHoHPDz6o0oMHKsSZV16cjnGT1bpuouwS56.jpg?ssl=1\" alt=\"Image result for cooperative learning\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>But What&#8217;s the Merit?<\/h3>\n<p>Cooperative learning isn&#8217;t just an excuse for students to sit there and socialize (although they will do that, watch out), but it really does help them learn. It builds team work, responsibility, and enhances cognitive development. It also helps with building social skills among your students, which is important not only in the younger grades, but in the higher ones as well. So why don&#8217;t you Stop. Cooperate and Listen?<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Cooperative learning is more than just group work!
