Klein, James D.; And Others
Contemporary Educational Psychology, v19 n1 p24-32 Jan 1994
The effects of individual versus cooperative learning and type of reward (points for completion or performance, or none) were studied with 126 undergraduate education majors. Subjects working alone performed better on the posttest and expressed more continuing motivation. Reward type did not affect performance or motivation. (SLD)
