Konsep pembelajaran pendidikan agama Islam semestinya tidak hanya terjebak pada pola pembelajaran konvensional, tetapi implementasi pembelajaran harus diarahkan pada kegiatan yang lebih kreatif dan berbasis pada aspek keaktifan siswa secara menyeluruh. Dalam konteks ini, seyogyannya para guru dapat menginisiasi desain pembelajaran dengan menekankan penggunaan metode cooperative learning agar dapat memfasilitasi kebutuhan belajar siswa yang berorientasi pada pembentukan kecakapan humanis siswa dalam proses pembelajaran antara lain; saling bergantung secara positif (Positif Interdependence), tanggung jawab individu (Individual Accountability ) perkumpulan heterogen (Heterogeneous Grouping ), kemahiran sosial (Social Skills), termasuk interaksi Bersemuka (Face- to-face Interaction). Dengan demikian, penggunaan metode cooperative learning dapat menyajikan peluang bagi siswa dari berbagai latar belakang dan kondisi saling ketergantungan yang positif dalam menangani tugas akademik di tingkat satuan pendidikan.

Makalah ini merupakan hasil dari kajian literatur tentang model pembelajaran <em>Cooperative Problem Solving</em> (CPS) yang dapat meningkatkan kemampuan pemecahan masalah siswa pada mata pelajaran fisika. Kemampuan pemecahan masalah merupakan salah satu karakter yang diharapkan dimiliki oleh siswa dalam menghadapi masalah di kehidupan bermasyarakat. Dengan diberlakukannya Masyarakat Ekonomi ASEAN (MEA) di Indonesia, menjadi peluang dan sekaligus tantangan bagi kita. MEA yang menganut sistem bebas melakukan perdagangan di negara-negara ASEAN ini menuntut kita untuk lebih kreatif dan inovatif dalam memecahkan masalah yang dihadapi. Pendidikan menjadi pilar utama untuk menghasilkan insan yang dapat bertahan dengan segala hantaman permasalahan hidup. Oleh karenanya, diperlukan suatu upaya untuk melatihkan kemampuan pemecahan masalah sejak dini yaitu sejak berada di bangku sekolah. Salah satu upaya yang dapat dilakukan adalah dengan melatihkan kemampuan masalah itu melalui strategi pembelajaran CPS. Terdapat lima tahap strategi problem solving menurut Heller &amp; Heller (2010) yaitu memahami permasalahan, mengubah permasalahan sehari-hari ke konsep fisika, merencanakan solusi, menggunakan solusi, dan mengevaluasi solusi. Dengan kondisi sekolah di Indonesia yang memiliki kelas dengan rombongan belajar yang besar, maka dapat menggunakan teknik pembelajaran berkelompok (<em>cooperative learning</em>). Telah banyak penelitian yang mengungkapkan bahwa pembelajaran kooperatif dapat memotivasi siswa dalam belajar. Menurut Johnson &amp; Smith dalam Heller (2010), di dalam pembelajaran kooperatif terdapat unsur-unsur pengembangan pribadi yaitu keterkaitan yang positif (<em>Possitive interdepence</em>), interaksi antarmuka (<em>Face-to-face promotive interaction</em>), tanggung jawab individu (<em>Individual Accountability</em>/<em>Personal Responsibility</em>), dan keterampilan berkolaborasi (<em>Collaborative Skill</em>).

Although a large number of research evidence speak out in favor of cooperative learning, its effectiveness in teaching does not depend only on teacher?s and students? enthusiasm and willingness to work in such a manner. Creating cooperative situations in learning demands a serious preparation and engagement on the part of teacher who is structuring various aspects of work in the classroom. Although there exist a large number of models and techniques of cooperative learning, which vary in the way in which students work together, in the structure of learning tasks as well as in the degree to which cooperative efforts of students are coupled with competition among groups, some elements should be present in the structure of conditions irrespective of the type of group work in question. Potential effects of cooperation are not likely to emerge unless teachers apply five basic elements of cooperative structure: 1. structuring of the learning task and students? positive interdependence, 2. individual responsibility, 3. upgrading of "face to face" interaction, 4. training of students? social skills, and 5. evaluation of group processes. The paper discusses various strategies for establishing the mentioned elements and concrete examples for teaching practice are provided, which should be of assistance to teachers for as much successful cooperative learning application as possible in work with children.

In this study I examined students’ perceptions of the way cooperative learning (CL) was used in their classroom setting. CL involves five key elements: positive interdependence (PI), face-to-face promotive interaction (FF), individual accountability (IA), interpersonal and small group skills (IS), and group processing (GP). For this study, first-year university students from three classes participated in informal CL (semistructured), formal CL (structured), and teacher-led instruction. At the end of the research period, students’ perceptions of these were rated. Analyses showed that for PI and IS, the mean score of the formal CL class was significantly higher than the teacher-led instruction class, but that there were no significant differences between FF, IA, and GP for these two groups. Student perceptions of the informal CL class did not show any significant difference when compared to the formal CL class nor the teacher-led instruction class for any of the five key elements. 本研究は、協同学習(CL)の5つの基本要素について、学生の認識を調べたものである。5つの基本要素とは、互恵的な相互依存(PI)、対面的で促進的な相互交渉(FF)、個人としての責任(IA)、社会的スキルや小グループ運営スキル(IS)、そしてグループの改善手続き(GP)である。本研究では、3つのクラスの大学1年生が、其々インフォーマルな協同学習、フォーマルな協同学習、そして、教員主導の学習を体験した後、協同学習の5つの基本要素の重要度を評価した。分析の結果、フォーマルな協同学習を経験した学生のPIとISの平均値は共に、教員主導の学習を体験した学生のものよりも、有意に高いことが示された。FF、IA、GPについては、この2つのクラス間に有意な差は見られなかった。また、協同学習の5つの基本要素は、インフォーマルな協同学習とフォーマルな協同学習、インフォーマルな協同学習と教員主導の学習のどちらを比較しても、有意差が認められなかった。

This paper first discusses cooperative learning and provides a rationale for its use in higher education. From the literature, six elements are identified that are considered essential to the success of cooperative learning: positive interdependence, face-to-face verbal interaction, individual accountability, social skills, group processing, and appropriate grouping. Three distinct approaches at the postsecondary level are described in the fields of Medicine, Dentistry and Mathematics, and feedback from faculty and students is reported. The three approaches are presented within the context of the disciplines and are compared across the disciplines with respect to the essential six elements. Finally, the authors share some lessons learned from their research and experience in order to assist faculty who wish to incorporate cooperative learning into their teaching.

PurposeThe aim was to prove the efficacy of the five cooperative learning elements applied in English classrooms and to demonstrate how effective they were to develop social skills in students.Design/methodology/approachThe qualitative approach allowed to analyse the data in order to determine the benefits of using these elements which help students to create a good rapport among them and do more productive activities to retain the knowledge. The instruments were Cooperative Learning Activity Planning Template that included 20 major steps in designing and assessing a cooperative learning activity designed by Susan Johnston. Additionally, rubrics that included the cooperative learning elements: face-to-face (promotive) interaction, positive interdependence, individual accountability, group processing and collaborative skills were necessary to assess students' accomplished tasks.FindingsFurthermore, when students played different roles, they attained their goal and did cooperative tasks more productively. All mentioned above enables Ecuadorian educational institutions to include better teaching methods and provokes consciousness of students' accomplishment towards their goals.Research limitations/implicationsIn the beginning, some constraints were presented; students did not have a clear idea about the main difference between group work and cooperative work. However, once they were aware of cooperative learning elements, they did incorporate them appropriately in each assigned activity which allowed them to obtain better results. Another limitation referred to master students who did not always provide learners with constant monitoring when they were working on cooperative activities; they simply believed that strong students could help the rest in the group if there was any inconvenience with the task, taking this situation for granted.Originality/valueThe originality of this study is reflected in the results obtained in the final product students presented since they used the elements in a more effective way to build social skills and achieve higher grades.

The aim of our study is to find out the attitude of students towards the use of cooperative learning with whiteboarding in an undergraduate introductory Physics course at the Department of Physics and Astronomy of the Faculty of Science of the University of Porto. We used an online survey and face-to-face-classroom observations as a supporting tool to collect data. The survey was based on multiple choice questions titled “Attitude Towards Cooperative Learning with Whiteboarding in Introductory Physics” (ATCLWIP), on a 5-point Likert scale, with the format strongly disagree, disagree, undecided, agree and strongly agree. The ATCLWIP survey was delivered via Moodle platform at the University of Porto and was validated using Cronbach alpha. Positive interdependence, individual accountability, face-to face interaction, interpersonal and small group social skills and group processing were investigated in the survey. About 100 students took part in the survey, from bachelors in Mathematics, Environmental Science and Technology, and Geology. This course combines lectures and problem-solving classes, with students organized in small groups, with one whiteboard per group. Groups make presentations of their whiteboard, discuss and answer instructor’s and peers’ questions. Topics of the course include physical laws underlying mechanics and waves. Given the findings from the statistical analysis of the ATCLWIP survey, it must be highlighted the academic and social skills students achieved from working cooperatively with whiteboarding. Also, on the basis of students’ answers and reflections, we assert that the implementation of this strategy will contribute to increased learning, critical thinking and socialization not only in physics but also across other courses and curricula at the University.

Cooperative learning is a kind of teaching method, which includes students working together in projects. The teacher has to provide a cooperative situation that creates interdependence among the students. It consists of five different elements. These are positive interdependence, individual accountability, face to face interaction, interpersonal- small groups, social skills, and group processing. This study is aimed to investigate the attitudes of university students studying in different departments towards cooperative learning. Thus, the current situation is described with the analysis of the data obtained from the applied scales. The research is descriptive. The group of the research consists of students studying in different departments of Bozok University in Yozgat. For the research, the data collected and processed into the data coding form. Then, statistical analysis was applied to the data transferred to SPSS 24.0 Packet program. There is no statistically significant difference found between genders. There was a statistically significant difference in the attitude scores towards cooperative learning between the ages, the departments, and the grades. Cooperative learning is a more suitable method for students in the classes and develops learners' attitudes. Institutes are encouraged for positive collaboration involvement among students who will be connected in groups within the work environment in the long term.

Although cooperative learning is a well-researched framework with many reports on its effective implementation in education, successful cooperative learning practice remains elusive in the classroom. The literature suggests certain elements of cooperative learning are key, but few studies have addressed their importance with respect to the dynamics of the learning activity and differences in individual learners’ attitudes. The objective of this study is to examine (1) whether learners’ perception of cooperative learning changes throughout a project, and (2) how differently individual learners perceive their activities with reference to the five elements (i.e. positive interdependence; face-to-face promotive interaction; individual accountability; social skills; group processing), and thereby to explore measures for successful implementation of cooperative learning. Analyses of a questionnaire survey and weekly journal entries revealed that there were dynamic changes in learners’ perception of cooperative learning in accordance with the shifts in phases of the project. The results also showed that there were significant differences in individual learners’ perceptions and that their engagement in cooperative learning could be affected by certain factors that were not weighed by the five elements. The results of this study can provide hints for better pedagogical interventions for teachers introducing cooperative learning into the classroom.
