Cooperative Learning and Ability Grouping: An Issue of Choice.
Mills, Carol J.; Durden, William G.
Gifted Child Quarterly, v36 n1 p11-16 Win 1992
This article reviews the literature on cooperative learning and ability grouping for gifted students and concludes that grouping, in and of itself, does not affect achievement and that grouping decisions need to be based on educational choices according to students' individual needs. Schools are encouraged to provide both ability grouping and cooperative learning opportunities. (DB)
