Join our study groups!Tips for Cooperative Learning
The dynamics of each study group may vary according to the personalities and customs of its members. However, there are a number of guidelines that should be followed to avoid problems and be able to learn together in ways that benefit each member.
• Mutual respect: it is critical that you respect each other’s points of view and do not challenge anyone for having different study strategies than yours. It is enriching to give your opinion and make suggestions, but always in a polite, friendly and tactful way.
• Ask questions… but also contribute!: one of the most beneficial aspects of cooperative learning is that you can consult all the questions you have and solve your doubts at the moment. However, communication and input must be two-way; you must also be willing to try to solve the problems of others and perform valuable interventions during the learning process.
• Do not comment on things outside the topic: if a study group is made for a particular exam or subject that is what you should focus on in the group, you should study for the exam. Discussing non-study subjects can lead to distractions in cooperative learning and the loss of concentration of the group members. However if you become friends with people on GoConqr you can send them private messages to discuss topics that are not study related.
