This document provides a critical review of Maher's article "What Really Happens in Cohorts". The review examines Maher's methodology, credibility, and findings. It finds Maher's study to be lacking in its use of only interviews and observations for data collection. The review also notes Maher provided little information about herself as the researcher. However, it acknowledges Maher's conclusions about the benefits and challenges of cohort learning are supported by other research studies on the topic.
