Co-operative Learning

Co-operative Learning within the EAZ

The Education Action Zone, in partnership with the University of Hull have designed the basis of a programme to develop Co-operative Learning in both primary and secondary schools within the NLC. It is this programme that will form the basis of the NLC training, implementation, research and development programmes over the next three years.

Although there is a great deal of research and many proponents of co-operative learning around the world the NLC has decided to use the work undertaken in New Zealand schools as the basis for their own programme.

We would like to gratefully acknowledge the research and work of Don Brown and Charlotte Thompson in New Zealand, but also wish to thank them most of all for their inspiration and infectious enthusiasm.
