Collaborative learning involves students working together in groups to solve problems, complete tasks, or learn new concepts. It actively engages students to process information rather than relying on memorization alone. When students work collaboratively, they can ask each other questions, share ideas, and provide feedback to further their own learning. Some benefits of collaborative learning include improved problem-solving and communication skills, increased engagement and creativity, and stronger relationships and trust among students. Effective implementation requires clear goals, expectations, and monitoring from teachers.
