This power point presentation is all about learning is inherently social and goals for education.

2. Learning is Inherently Social
As Jeff Golub points out, “Collaborative learning has as its main
feature a structure that allows for student talk: students are supposed to
talk with each other....and it is in this talking that much of the learning
occurs.” (Golub, 1988) Collaborative learning produces intellectual
synergy of many minds coming to bear on a problem, and the social
stimulation of mutual engagement in a common endeavor. This mutual
exploration, meaning-making, and feedback often leads to better
understanding on the part of students, and to the creation of new
understandings for all of us.

on the Conditions of Excellence in
Higher Education, 1984).
