Collaborative learning involves students working in teams to discover information, solve problems, and discuss different conclusions. It focuses on student interaction and doing activities in groups. Some key principles are that students are the primary focus, interaction and hands-on work are important, and real-world problem solving should be incorporated. Examples of collaborative learning activities described are think-pair-share, sending problems to groups to discuss, and forming peer writing groups to build papers together. The document suggests collaborative work in groups can help students understand topics and encourages teachers to try this method.
This document discusses strategies for online teachers to establish an effective teaching presence. It defines teaching presence as consisting of three roles: instructional design and organization, facilitating discourse, and direct instruction. It also notes that merely putting students together online does not facilitate meaningful learning - teachers must use appropriate strategies. While positive teacher behaviors can motivate students, negative behaviors have a greater impact in demotivating students. The document recommends that teachers design courses effectively and clearly, create a functional and stimulating online community, manage time and timing flexibly, and know how to make themselves and others present through modeling, facilitating discussion, providing feedback, and challenging students.
EDUCARNIVAL 2014 at IIT Delhi- Shared leadership explore, empower, excel by ...Eduexcellence
This document discusses the benefits of shared leadership in schools. It argues that traditionally, leadership has been confined to the principal, but shared leadership empowers teachers to take on both formal and informal leadership roles. This can cultivate leadership skills in teachers and provide opportunities for professional growth without having to leave the classroom. When teachers are given leadership responsibilities and authority, it leads to benefits like improved collaboration, accountability, and student outcomes. The document outlines various ways schools can identify potential teacher leaders and create structures to promote shared leadership.
This document discusses the benefits and best practices of group work for students. It provides instructions for a sample group activity where students reconstruct an image after briefly viewing it. Group work allows students to learn from each other, develop social skills, and gain different perspectives. Good group work involves communication, cooperation, listening skills and time management. Teachers should regularly assess students and change group compositions frequently to maximize the benefits of group activities.

The document also provides examples of the inquiry process, including establishing background knowledge, shared reading strategies, small group collaboration, investigating topics, and creating final projects to demonstrate understanding.
The document discusses the benefits of collaboration in learning and the workplace. It promotes deeper knowledge, initiative, creativity, critical thinking, and co-creation of knowledge. Effective collaboration fosters benefits like creativity, efficiency, overcoming monotony, and morale. It also discusses the stages of group development, factors that help or hinder groups, and tips for instructors to ensure successful collaboration in online classrooms.
The document discusses the importance of collaboration for 21st century learners, noting that it helps develop communication, social, and problem-solving skills while simulating real-world work environments. Several aspects of effective collaboration are outlined, including establishing guidelines, sharing knowledge and resources, engaging in student-student interaction, and reflecting on the learning process. Examples of both effective and ineffective professional learning communities are provided to illustrate best practices for collaborative learning.
Collaborative learning involves students working together in groups to maximize their own and each other's learning. It emphasizes interdependence among group members and positive interpersonal interactions. Cooperative learning also involves students working in groups but is more teacher-centered, with the teacher maintaining control of the class. Some key differences between collaborative and cooperative learning include collaborative learning beginning with mutual trust while cooperative learning begins with mutual respect, and collaborative learning involving generating entirely new ideas together versus cooperative learning focusing on sharing ideas. Engaging students in collaborative learning can create a positive classroom atmosphere by developing relationships and problem-solving skills among students. Effective strategies for collaborative learning include helping students understand benefits, guiding them through team-building stages, establishing expectations, and designing conflict
Cooperative learning is a teaching strategy where small teams of students work together on learning activities to improve their understanding of a subject. It originated from philosophers like John Dewey who believed in progressive education to create responsible democratic citizens, and psychologists like Morton Deutsch who saw cooperation as building trust and relationships. Cooperative learning structures provide different roles for students and specialized expertise to promote positive interdependence and accountability. Implementing cooperative learning effectively involves forming heterogeneous teams, developing students' teamwork skills, and having groups reflect on their process.
Group PowerPoint presentation on Successful Collaboration and Team Dynamics that analyzes the value of team collaboration as a Masters of Education student in the School of Teacher Education at the University of Phoenix.
This document discusses strategies for promoting critical thinking in teaching. It advocates for cooperative and collaborative learning approaches over traditional lecture-based methods. Some key points:
- Cooperative learning is effective when students rely on each other through positive interdependence and individual accountability. Face-to-face interaction and collaborative skills are important.
- Classroom debates and discussions encourage independent and dynamic thought by having students critically analyze conflicting information. Different types of debates structure interaction.
- Both teacher and student questions are valuable for learning, with teachers aiming for deeper understanding and students seeking clarity. Formative and summative assessments evaluate individual and group work. Performance-based assessments clearly define scoring criteria.
Working in groups for student projects can be frustrating, however, understanding the skills and roles needed for a successful group engagement can make a difference!
The document discusses various strategies for motivating students and staff in educational settings. It explores how intrinsic motivation can be developed through giving students choices, social interaction, ensuring they feel accountable, incorporating creativity, enabling success, and providing appropriate challenges and feedback. Modeling enthusiasm and regularly praising authentic efforts are also presented as important factors for motivation. The discussion suggests motivation is best supported through a cooperative approach where leadership is shared and staff work together on a common vision.
This document discusses perceptions of group work among faculty and students. It begins with an introduction to teamwork and defining perceptions. It then explores the differences between groups and teams, and reviews faculty and student perceptions of the challenges and benefits of group work. Recommendations are provided for faculty on how to structure group work positively. The document also discusses tools that can be used to facilitate online group work and provides resources on the topic.

Editor's Notes
Dr. Sperling stated “ that creating collaborative learning environments in which working adults can share the practical knowledge that comes from their life and work experience”. He also states that teams can provided a sense of community and support that is invaluable in helping working adults cope with the challenge of balancing school with other life demands.
We are going to be the new teachers of the future leaders of this country. We as educators have to work together to make sure the students are getting the best education they deserve.
If by talking to somebody else they can help me be a better teacher, then so be it. We put things aside to better somebody else.
According to the article Introduction to teams, “teams are a way to undertake continuous improvement design to increase productivity” If we can get people to work together to make a job more efficient then the employee will be happier about their job.
By empowering teams the article Introduction to Teams states that quality of work becomes better because workers have a say, where they did not before.
Working together as a team can help get rid of negative social environments. Introduction to Teams states ”Teams may also provide employees with social rewards like friendships, self-esteem, and a feeling of control” We all like to feel a part of something bigger and that we helped create that.
The beginning founder of UOP believed so much in teams that he based a whole university on it. I believe that we have ample examples and learning opportunities throughout this program to be successful.
We are being taught each and every week how to develop as better leaders. This has motivated me to soak and absorb as much as we can to help those we are teaching.
Speaker notes: Whenever working in Learning Teams, there will be some conflict, but conflict should not always be seen as a bad thing. There are two types of conflict presented here. First, we have Constructive Conflict. When conflict is constructive team members remain focused on the issues. They do not allow the disagreements to take them off task. Team members discuss the differences in a respectful tone and keep their minds open to others’ ideas. Extra support is given when needed, and all team members cooperate to accomplish goals set by the team. In the end there is a commitment to resolving any conflicts so that the team can move forward smoothly.
The second type of conflict addressed in this slide is destructive conflict. The characteristics of destructive conflict begin with personal attacks. When ego begins to play a role in the conflict and the conflict moves into the realm of affective conflict. Affective conflict occurs when team members personality differences, different communication styles, and emotions get involved (University of Phoenix, n.d.). Destructive conflict continues with insults and defensiveness. Team members may be unwilling to compromise and begin to compete for power or position in the group. Often this leads to conflict avoidance rather than resolution. This type of conflict brings productivity to a screeching halt.
Speaker notes: There are a few lessons to be learned as we figure out how to approach conflict resolution. In this model we see the four R’s of conflict resolution: reasons, reactions, results, and resolution. First, we learn to identify the reason for the conflict. Is the conflict substantive, revolving around the content bring put forth, or is it procedural, surrounding the process the team will use to accomplish the goal? The conflict could also be affective or involving personality issues(University of Phoenix, n.d.). Next, we have to consider how the group is reacting to the conflict. Is the reaction constructive or destructive? Third, what are the results of the conflict? Are the consequences so grave that they will stop group productivity? Last, what method will the team use to resolve the conflict? At the end of day, conflicts will arise when working with a team, but the end result should be a more cohesive and productive team.
Speaker Notes: This quote from The Development of a Comprehensive and Coherent Theory of Learning shows that each person cannot be placed into a certain type of learning, nor should be expected to be as such. When working in a group, there is bound to be a conflict in learning styles. Each person has been working mainly on their own their entire school career. Some students being confident, working people who are set in their ways. Being put into a group setting forces us to be looked at and critiqued in a exposing way. Students are face to see their flaws in their work, and have to discuss with others how to improve. This allows for growth and learning in a different way than just being told what to think by an instructor. By discussing opinions, and helping each other work on a project helps teach patience, understanding of differences, and how to talk to peers respectfully.
Speaker Notes: Listed here are the different types of learning styles given by each of my team mates in Group B. Some of us have similar learning styles, others different. We are all adults of varying age, and live in different parts of the United States. We each are unique people, and thus learn in unique ways. We mostly agree that we like some kind of communication and “hands-on” experience. Hands-on is difficult to achieve when working in a strictly online course. But, this is forcing us to break outside our comfort zone and begin to learn in a different way. This is an important lesson for us in how we will teach and think about groups as teachers ourselves.
Speaker notes: One of the key components to creating a successful Learning Team is communication. Open, positive communication can help any Learning Team to move quickly and efficiently through the tasks set before them. There are several skills that are crucial in communicating in a team setting that will promote productivity and cause things to move along smoothly. The first skill we want to take a look at is open mindedness. Most of the time when we think about working in teams, negative feelings come quickly, but if we are going to create a successful Learning Team, we have to turn that thinking around. This change comes when we approach the situation with an open mind. Instead of assuming that our team members will subtract from our learning experience, we can come in with the expectation that each team member has something of value to contribute and their support can only help with creating a positive outcome. One of the most important communication skills is active listening. It involves taking notes, asking questions, and repeating what has been said in order to gain clarity (Gluck, n. d.). Active listening ensures that all parties are receiving the same information (Hereford, n. d.). Another communication skill crucial to team success is open communication. When we communicate openly we create an environment where team members feel safe to share their ideas without judgment or ridicule (University of Phoenix, n. d.). This open exchange of information can give Teams the opportunity to really understand what other team members have to offer.
Speaker notes: There are three more communication skills that I believe are crucial to a successful Learning Team. Next let us talk about giving and receiving feedback. As a team we are expected to give and receive critiques that will make the team efforts successful. There can be no voice that is too small to be heard. Team member count on one another to provide them with information that optimizes their particular contributions to the team. The offering of the slightest suggestion can make the difference between an “A” and a “B”. There can also be no egos that are to big to take an offered suggestion. One of the reasons we work in teams is because it is a vehicle for shared reflection (University of Phoenix, n. d.). This is partly because we have other people to draw from when we don’t have the answers as individuals.
When working in teams, sometimes the productivity will slow down. This could be fatigue or just a plain old lack of motivation. When those times come the team can get a big jolt through one team member sharing a fresh idea or just saying something humorous just to get the river flowing again (University of Phoenix, 2001). Not every moment should be used for joking around because this would get the team off focus, but every now and then a light moment is just what we need.
The last communication skill essential to Learning Team Success is simple, be respectful. Earlier we talked about people communicating openly and freely. This happens easily when there is a respectful tone in all conversations or discussions in the group. When the respect is there a sense of camaraderie and success will also be there (Gluck, n. d.). Whenever we interact in a group or team setting, there is an expectation of mutual respect.
Speaker notes: When establishing a Learning Team there are three phases the team goes through. Those three phases are storming, norming, and performing. A good team charter will help teams push through the storming and norming phases, and get on to the performing stage (University of Phoenix, 2014). The purposes of establishing a good Charter are to, first define the team task. This is the point where each team member gets a clear understanding of the Learning Team’s assignment. This will ensure that team members are all on the same page. Next resources are allocated. When defining the team task each member is given some part of that task to complete. When allocating resources, each team member is given what he needs to complete his part, or told some way to get it. Next, goals are set for the team. We all know that the ultimate goal for any team is to complete it’s task. There may be some small goals set throughout the process that team members must come to an agreement on so that each team member is working on the same phase of task completion as the rest of his team. The team charter also provides a way to document each team members commitment to doing his fare share of the task or assignment. This provides accountability to the other teammates. Making plans is that part of chartering that sets the team up for the duration of the task. In the plan making phase decisions are made about how to proceed with the task completion. Teams also decide together different ways to address team conflict. Teams set ground rules and guidelines, make decisions about time management and deadlines, and the also ensure fair contribution and collaboration (University of Phoenix, 2010). The Learning Team Charter is the team’s pathway to success.
Speaker notes: When we create the team charter, we already know the basic decisions that we make as discussed in the previous slide, but there is a bit more. When we talk about time management that is not only a discussion about deadlines. The team also establishes meeting times. Presenting, discussing, collaborating, assigning, reporting, and deciding are important things that happen in meetings (University of Phoenix, n. d.). The Learning Team Charter also helps the team establish guidelines for resolving conflict. This is not a part of the Charter, but the Learning Team Log helps to keep a clear record of when each team meeting occurs, who was in attendance, and what the team accomplished. This record keeping mechanism reinforces accountability among teammates.
Speaker Notes: Communication is the foundational building block for successful group collaboration. Almost everything that has been read in class has touched in some part on the importance of good communication. Respect is a core aspect for building a welcoming group atmosphere to promote quality work and cooperation amongst team members. Group atmosphere is a concept that conveys the overall impact of all the necessary attributes for a successful and functional team. Good teams are comfortable with proposing new ideas and perspectives with the knowledge that their idea won’t be ridiculed no matter the validity of the idea itself. Good teams are successful because a good atmosphere built on respect and communication can accomplish far more than a team without those components.
Speaker Notes: Conflict resolution is a an important component for successful teams to maintain that success. Conflict can divide a group and splinter the cohesion to make collaboration possible. Conflict resolution is a crucial skill necessary for successful group work. Leadership is another effective component. Effective leaders prevent conflicts from arising and they keep the team focused to get the project or job done in the best way possible. The RAP is a good component for team success. Everyone prepares before each meeting to stay focused and be prepared for the group work for that particular project or day. It is an effective component to ensure that each team member is doing the work they agreed to do by coming to the group ready to work.
Speaker Notes: Here are a few motivational factors. Some of the motivational strategies are pretty straight forward. Boredom can kill productivity almost as quickly as poor team cohesion. While this may not necessarily increase productivity, keeping from becoming bored will help keep productivity. Encouraging creativity helps increase productivity by showing support for new ideas, this also helps maintain good team spirit which promotes productivity through creativity. There are many forms of motivation but they all fall into intrinsic or extrinsic. Intrinsic motivation is more personal, it’s why you want to do something, your personal motivation. Extrinsic is external, it comes from someone else. Extrinsic is more akin to, for example. A cheerleader that cheers on the football team giving them motivation to win.
Speaker Notes: Intrinsic and Extrinsic motivation are two of the main categories of motivation. The best examples of both kinds can be found in sports. This quote is taken from an article in the University Library entitled ‘Successful coaches’ views on motivation and motivational strategies.’ It shows that there is no right or wrong way, no set method of motivating a team. We find the motivation that works for us and we use it, be it an internal motivation to not procrastinate or an external motivation to do your share of the group work and do it well.
