| Summary |
Teamwork builds cooperation, problem solving, active learning, and responsibility, all of which are increasingly important in both the classroom and the workplace. "Using Student Teams in the Classroom" is a helpful guide for all faculty who want to actively engage students with both the material and one another by using teamwork. The examples in this book are drawn from a wide variety of fields, including architecture, biology, ceramics, engineering, and English. The range of imaginative teaching strategies -- all of which include students working in groups -- is evidence of the wealth of ways in which cooperative learning can be incorporated in college classrooms. The authors bring together diverse examples and interesting applications and combine them with a solid explanation of some of the caveats of cooperative learning and deep respect for the ways in which such pedagogical changes will challenge long-held beliefs and practices. -- From publisher's description. |
