Group learning involves students working together in small groups on common tasks, with shared goals and interdependence. It encourages active learning and increases academic performance by promoting literacy, language skills, and teacher effectiveness, while computers can foster positive social behaviors and serve as a natural vehicle for cooperative learning when students work together in groups with advice and mutual help. Effective cooperative learning involves mixed-ability teams, positive interdependence, teaching social skills, and ensuring individual accountability.
