Book Detail Page

written by Barbara Millis
published by the Stylus Publishing, LLC
This 2012 book discusses the benefits of cooperative learning methods from the perspective of ten different academic disciplines: accounting, chemistry, mathematics, psychology, engineering education, statistics, biology, literature, economics, and geological sciences. Each chapter is authored by an expert in a particular discipline, who argues the merits of using cooperative learning as a key instructional method in higher education. The compilation was assembled and edited by Barbara Millis, director of the Teaching and Learning Center of the University of Texas-San Antonio, who asserts that "cooperative learning offers a systematic, learning-centered approach without putting anyone into a pedagogical strait jacket". She also argues for using highly structured practices to ensure high-quality group work in which all students are held to a high bar of responsibility.
