Minute-by-minute management of pupils and learning outcomes

 

Cooperative Learning is not "group work," but rather defines step-by-step how students interact with materials and each other, to achieve your specific objectives in any subject ...

 

 

 

“Hundreds of studies over more than three decades show a positive correlation between cooperative learning and achievement. Research has been done in every subject, at all grade levels, in all kinds of schools.”

 

- "Putting Cooperative Learning to the Test" by Laurel Shaper Walters Harvard Education Letter

Thank you for your interest. My name is Jakob Werdelin and I am a Danish specialist in the structural approach to Cooperative Learning. As a consultant, I have a proven track record of helping schools and institutions across the UK create effective student-centred classrooms.

 

Cooperative Learning drives attainment, progress and closes achievement gaps and is the most cost-efficient investment of your Pupil Premium according to the Sutton Trust.

 

Of more importance to teachers, it will fuse seamlessly with current lesson plans, materials and other teaching strategies without increasing workload.

 

 

For schools struggling with behaviour issues or a very mixed student body, Cooperative Learning will help to create a positive, inclusive and respectful ethos and facilitate character building and may engage the wider community in socially challenged areas.

 

I work with universities, schools, academies, faith organisations, local authorities and associations: Whatever your situation, courses are always tailored to your unique needs. See our latest example of a bespoke course UK Tertiary in the 21st century to facilitate student-centred learning at university level:

Handle behavior and attainment simultaneously

 

The Skills & Mastery course is tailored for tasks and rote learning, yet the impact on social skills extends beyond the classroom...

 

 

 

 

 

“... enables everyone to contribute, encourages participants to actively listen to each other (...) provided a way to engage in controversy within a safe social environment. The tools are very easy to use.”

 

- Kevin Blogg, teacher & teacher trainer, SACRE, Norfolk County Council, 2014

Use Cooperative Learning to engage your stakeholders

 

A cooperative ethos should not be limited to behaviour and attainment of pupils. Stage guided enquires and organise meetings to engage your stakeholders...

 

 

 

 

“...responding both to the demand of government and community as well as those like myself who see young people on a daily basis trying to understand their world view...”

 

-Garry Swinton, Chaplain of The Grey Coat Hospital and Westminster City School, Healing Fractures II - Beyond Birmingham, March 17, 2015

‘‘‘Use active learning techniques;’’ ‘‘Be responsive in the classroom;’’

‘‘Promote respect for diversity;’’ “Foster critical thinking.”

[How to] respond simultaneously and responsibly to these multiple demands?
