Cooperative Learning and Peace Studies
Jacobs, George M.
Online Submission, Paper presented at the Institute for Peace Curriculum Colloquium (University of Hawai'i, Honolulu, HI, Mar 1989)
The goal of this paper is to advocate that cooperative learning be a key, but not the only, methodology used in peace education. Two reasons will be put forward to support this view. First, research has shown that cooperative learning promotes positive educational outcomes generally. Second, cooperative learning is harmonious with peace education because both seek to help students recognize that we all depend on each other to succeed. Cooperative learning helps students translate this recognition into action by providing opportunities to learn and practice collaboration.
