Based on Spencer Kagan's work, this step-by-step guide presents 24 cooperative learning techniques proven to build people skills and "construct meaning" for social studies students.
Showing how to turn traditional classes into lively interactive forums, lessons are supported by subject-based narratives, charts, activities, evaluation strategies, and ready-to-use handouts. For example, “Creative Controversy” asks students to consider whether or not Columbus was a great man. Handouts provide “Guidelines for a Good Argument,” and activities include role plays for Columbus’s children and Taino Indians.
