Tribes: A New Way of Learning and Being Together
Sign in to keep track of books you’ve read and want to read.
This book offers a practical framework for teachers who want students to work together well in classroom groups. It explains the theory behind cooperative learning and sets out step-by-step instruction for teaching young people the social skills that group work depends on, such as listening, sharing roles and taking responsibility for their own conduct. Rather than leaving collaboration to chance, the approach treats these behaviours as things that can be taught, practised and reinforced. Educators will find guidance on setting up groups, structuring tasks and helping students reflect on how they cooperate, making the book a useful resource for anyone building a more cooperative classroom.
