Cooperative Learning as an Inclusion Strategy: A Closer Look.
O'Connor, Rollanda E.; Jenkins, Joseph R.
Exceptionality, v6 n1 p29-51 1996
Observation of 22 children with mild disabilities (grades 3-6) over 2 years in cooperative learning inclusive settings indicated that only 40% of the students successfully participated in cooperative groups. Differences among classroom practices (for example, selection of partners, teacher monitoring, and establishment of a cooperative ethic) were related to successful cooperative learning experiences.
