Collaborative Learning
Collaborative learning is a situation in which two or more people learn or attempt to learn something together. Unlike individual learning, people engaged in collaborative learning capitalize on one another's resources and skills (asking one another for information, evaluating one another's ideas, monitoring one another's work).
Collaborative Learning
Classes, where appropriate, sit in groups of 4 of mixed abilities. Lessons are designed and delivered using collaborative learning structures which enable all students to be actively involved in a variety of tasks that will challenge them. Students are expected to work positively with each other, supporting their face or shoulder partners, to foster a climate for learning where everybody can achieve. There are numerous collaborative learning structures that are specifically designed to extend learning so that students achieve above their potential and give them opportunities to lead on learning within each subject.
