Collaborative Learning
Group 6 Team Candelaria Presentation
What is Collaborative Learning?
 It is the educational approach of using
groups to enhance learning through working
together. Groups of two or more learners
work together to solve problems, complete
tasks, or learn new concepts.
Collaborative Learning
 This approach actively engages learners to
process and synthesize information and
concepts, rather than using rote
memorization of facts and figures.
Collaborative Learning
 It is a learning style that encourages
teamwork and social interaction. When
students or colleagues work together in
collaborative groups, they can ask each
other questions, share ideas and give
feedback to direct their own learning.
Collaborative Learning
Examples of collaborative learning teams:
• Study groups
• Project groups
• Problem-solving or puzzle groups
• Writing groups
Examples of collaborative learning teams:
• Discussion groups
• Debate or Socratic circle groups
• Peer editing groups
• Role-playing groups
11 benefits of collaborative learning:
1. Improves problem-solving skills
Collaborative learning projects often require groups to complete a task or
solve a problem. The group must discuss and analyze different ideas to find
the best solution. Working through a problem or an assignment as a group
can help students develop their own problem-solving skills or aid
professionals in discovering new ways to handle different types of situations
at work.
11 benefits of collaborative learning:
2. Encourages social interaction
Collaborative learning requires students to interact as a team using eye
contact, verbal communication and social cues. Members of
various personality types learn to share and listen by working toward a
common goal. Throughout this process, learners practice and develop social
skills such as active listening, empathy and respect. Social skills can help
people form and maintain strong personal and professional relationships.
11 benefits of collaborative learning:
3. Promotes diversity
Collaborative learning often brings together people of various backgrounds,
beliefs, education levels and ages. In the process of determining a solution,
participants get to hear a variety of possible explanations from people with
different opinions and perspectives. Team members might present new ideas
and perspectives that are unique to their culture or upbringing. As a result,
collaborative learning can encourage open-mindedness and acceptance in
the workplace.
11 benefits of collaborative learning:
4. Improves communication skills
Collaborative learning depends on communicating effectively to complete a
task. Participants use their verbal communication skills to share ideas,
explain concepts and provide clear and concise feedback. Learners might
also have the opportunity to improve written communication skills if the
assignment involves tasks such as group writing or peer editing.
11 benefits of collaborative learning:
5. Inspires creativity
Combining different views and ideas can result in creative solutions to
collaborative learning assignments. One individual's idea or suggestion might
inspire a new and creative idea from their team members. Collaborative
learning encourages this type of creative thinking because many ideas and
viewpoints often help team members discover an effective solution to a
problem.
11 benefits of collaborative learning:
6. Creates trust
Collaborative learning groups work together to reach their goal, relying on
each other for success. Thus, they need to learn to trust each other. Students
who build trust in collaborative teams can form a more cohesive classroom
bond knowing they support each other's learning. In a professional situation,
this trust can transfer to future workplace interactions, which could lead to
increased productivity and morale.
11 benefits of collaborative learning:
7. Improves confidence
When working as a group, team members help support each other as they
move toward a common goal. Collaborative learning can benefit individuals
who are introverted because a supportive group atmosphere can help them
build confidence. Team members can encourage more reticent members to
share their opinions and contribute to discussions. As a result, more
introverted team members realize their value to the group.
11 benefits of collaborative learning:
8. Encourages engagement
Successful collaborative learning requires all participants to get actively
involved in accomplishing a team's goals. Collaborative tasks encourage
passive individuals to be more engaged in the project or discussion because
the team expects their input. People who are engaged in their work are often
more productive and have a more positive attitude while students who
become more involved in their own learning often show higher achievement.
11 benefits of collaborative learning:
9. Allows people to have fun
Learning as a group is often more enjoyable and less tedious than reading
training materials, listening to a lecture or watching an instructional video
alone. Many collaborative projects even involve fun tasks, such as solving
puzzles, role-playing situations and playing games. During collaborative
learning exercises, teams often feel more comfortable, relaxed and able to
laugh when you've encouraged discussion. When learning experiences
become fun, students and professionals are more likely to remember
important content. They are often eager to learn more in the future.
11 benefits of collaborative learning:
10. Develops critical-thinking skills
Collaborative learning can encourage participants to think at a higher level. In
collaborative projects, learners analyze and discuss information to come to
solve a problem or complete a task. Because these groups require team
members to explain their ideas and interpret and assess the ideas of others,
students and professionals can improve their critical-thinking skills through
collaborative tasks. Critical thinking is important for resolving conflicts,
brainstorming strategies, creating content and evaluating ideas and results.
11 benefits of collaborative learning:
11. Builds relationships
Collaborative learning can create new friendships and strengthen existing
relationships. It often brings together individuals who would not have met or
worked with each other under normal circumstances. As team members
spend time working on a collaborative learning project together, they get to
know each other better. This can lead to positive personal and professional
relationships and higher morale. If a supervisor or teacher is participating in
or leading the collaborative learning effort, it can help that individual
understand their learners better and strengthen mentor relationships.
Tips for implementing collaborative learning:
Start with a clear goal.
Before you outline a collaborative teaching experience, consider the most
important tasks you want the session to accomplish. Use a learning goal to
guide your instructional plans and determine how collaboration can help
learners achieve that objective.
Tips for implementing collaborative learning:
Share specific expectations.
As you introduce the goals of a collaborative learning session, explain to
students exactly what you expect each team to accomplish. Set up rules for
interacting as a team and completing any assigned content.
Tips for implementing collaborative learning:
Monitor groups.
As learners engage in collaborative tasks and discussions, move around the
room to observe each group. Ask guiding questions if a team gets off-task or
offer encouragement when teams work together effectively to accomplish
their goals.
Tips for implementing collaborative learning:
Provide time to reflect
Reflecting on the collaborative process can enhance learning and help team
members improve their skills in future sessions. Provide learners with enough
time to discuss their thoughts on the collaborative process together, then give
everyone the chance to reflect individually through a writing assignment or
feedback survey.
The individual benefits of collaborative learning:
1. Turns learning into a truly active process
The learner must organize their thoughts, present a cohesive argument to
demonstrate their point, defend that point to their peers, and convince others
that their argument is correct.
The individual benefits of collaborative learning:
2. Promotes learning from others viewpoints
Studies show that when a person is exposed to diverse viewpoints,
especially from people with varied backgrounds, they learn more.
The individual benefits of collaborative learning:
3. Teaches how to think critically and quickly
The learner must quickly synthesize responses and, if they find that their
argument is lacking, adjust their ideas on the fly. Individuals learn how to
think critically and quickly, while intaking new information and adjusting their
own viewpoint as new ideas are introduced.
The individual benefits of collaborative learning:
4. Promotes listening to criticism and advice
The learner will also listen to others talking through their ideas, offering their
thoughts for or against their peers’ arguments. This dynamic approach
means that learners gain a more full understanding of the topic, as they have
to consider it from all angles.
The individual benefits of collaborative learning:
5. Develops public speaking and active listening skills
Individuals learn to speak well in front of an audience of their peers, to listen
actively, to challenge ideas and build a framework of ideas in conjunction with
others.
The individual benefits of collaborative learning:
6. Improves cooperation
When given a specific goal, learners are more likely to engage in thoughtful
discussion with each other, improving both their understanding of the subject
and their esteem for each other.
Assessment for Learning
What is Assessment for Learning?
 Assessment for learning (AFL), also known as
formative assessment, refers to any assessment
activity that guides learning. Unlike summative
assessment which evaluates pupil knowledge and
achievement after a period of learning is
complete, assessment for learning involves
evaluating small content areas as part of the
ongoing learning process.
Assessment for Learning
 AFL is a cyclical approach to teaching and
learning used by both teachers and students to
help learners fulfil their potential. The information
created through AFL notifies both learners and
teachers where students are in their learning. This
then informs the teaching practice so that
educators know how to amend their approach
accordingly – to support students in getting where
they need to be.
Assessment for Learning
 Improved relationships between teachers and
students
 Improved attainment and achievement.
 Improved confidence, resilience, and self-esteem
amongst learners.
The Benefits of AFL
 Improved classroom culture and teaching and
learning environments.
 Improved productivity and sense of motivation.
 Improved metacognitive talk in the classroom.
The Benefits of AFL
 A teacher’s role is to plan and manage the
assessment. One aspect of their role is to
make accurate and productive use of
assessment. They then use their findings to
inform next steps, both their own and the pupils’.
This reactionary approach to teaching and
learning keeps students at the heart of the
process.
Why is the Role of the
Teacher Important in AFL?
 In order for AFL to be successful, teachers must
first create the right social, emotional, and
classroom environments. Students need to feel
safe, valued, and respected before they will feel
empowered enough to engage in meaningful
assessment opportunities.
Why is the Role of the
Teacher Important in AFL?
 Similarly, the way in which teachers communicate with
students helps to lay a strong foundation for effective AFL.
For example, if students are told that they are wrong or
incorrect constantly, then their self-efficacy will be affected.
Language like this, when used continually, will only cause
students to disengage. Instead, teachers can address
misconceptions in learning as opportunities for students to
thrive and excel.
Why is the Role of the
Teacher Important in AFL?
 To boost self-esteem and levels of motivation in
the classroom, teachers can ask students to focus
on their improvement rather than level of
attainment.
Why is the Role of the
Teacher Important in AFL?
How to Use Assessment for Learning Strategies in the Classroom:
1 – Round the Room Questioning
Teachers can circulate around the room asking individual or
group questions. Doing so helps them to immediately address any
misconceptions or gaps in students’ learning. Feedback provided
should directly inform students what they need to do next to get to
where they need to be.
How to Use Assessment for Learning Strategies in the Classroom:
2 – Whole-Class Questioning
Whole-class questioning is an excellent way for teachers to
determine if all learners have understood the learning intentions.
The best whole-class questions have both a correct and an
incorrect answer, and thinking time should be given before
students are expected to show their answer. Teachers can then
easily scan the room to assess student understanding.
How to Use Assessment for Learning Strategies in the Classroom:
3 – Peer and Self-Assessment
Peer learning and self-assessment can only be successful if
everyone has a universal understanding of the learning
outcome. Peer learning and assessment relies on close
interactions between two or more students, so it is even more
successful if the social and emotional setting is right. Pupils take
responsibility for their own learning and are given the tools to help
them evaluate their success.
Assessment for learning helps us to
steer our learners back on track, with
the ultimate goal of helping them to be
the best they can be, and to achieve the
best possible outcomes.
