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.

Description
Explore the differences between cooperative learning and problem-based learning. Learn how students work together in small groups to enhance their own and each others' learning in cooperative learning, and how problem-based learning focuses on solving real-world problems to acquire knowledge.
