[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cooperative learning is oxymoron. The kid has to be able to do the work independently before he can collaborate on something. It only sounds good at first.[/quote] I may be an outlier, but I don't know any highly successful people who don't learn cooperatively. That is the essense of being a senior executive to me. You work with others to tackle problems that lack simple correct/incorrect answers. You influence the motivation and desires of others to achieve shared goals. Those involved in corporate management, law, government, and politics take this for granted. Even most science/tech types work within the context of a large organizations that require cooperative learning. How many CEOs are the technical expert in their firm? So for me, sending my DC to a school that cares about things like cooperative learning is a way to make sure he doesn't end up stuck in a middle management cubicle.[/quote]
