Questions and Answers

What is the main difference between cooperative learning and typical group work?

  • Typical group work requires competition among group members.
  • Cooperative learning involves individual work only.
  • Cooperative learning requires interdependence among group members. (correct)
  • Typical group work focuses on real-world problems.

How does Problem-based learning (PBL) differ from Inquiry-based learning (IBL)?

  • PBL focuses on theoretical problems, while IBL emphasizes practical scenarios.
  • PBL provides students with real-world problems, while IBL does not. (correct)
  • PBL emphasizes passive acquisition of knowledge, while IBL focuses on active learning.
  • IBL requires collaboration among students, while PBL does not.

In Constructivism, how do learners acquire knowledge?

  • By actively constructing their own understanding based on experiences. (correct)
  • By memorizing information provided by teachers.
  • Through rote learning techniques.
  • By competing with other learners to gain knowledge.

Study Notes

Cooperative Learning

  • Students work together in small groups to maximize their own and each other's learning.
  • Cooperative learning requires interdependence among group members to solve a problem or complete an assignment.

Problem-Based Learning (PBL)

  • Learners acquire knowledge by devising a solution to a problem.
  • PBL activities provide students with real-world problems that require collaboration to devise a solution.
  • Through PBL, learners acquire communication and collaboration skills in addition to knowledge.

Constructivism in Education

  • Constructivism is the theory that learners construct knowledge rather than passively taking in information.
  • People build their own representations and incorporate new information into their pre-existing knowledge (schemas) through experience and reflection.
  • Constructivism emphasizes that learners actively construct their own knowledge.
