In our classes often ask students to work together with the assumption that they know how. So when it comes to teens, and teachers must face numerous obstacles irritating noise, clutter, distractions, loss of time, low yields and uneven distribution of tasks. The "good students" apply and the others take advantage of their work, creating negative feelings of frustration and injustice.
With adults there are other limitations: some are "calling the shots", others say nothing or take few initiatives.
Students not born knowing how to work together but they can learn in class if classroom open classroom space to do so.
From this perspective, cooperative learning is a great help. Special attention is given to the teaching of social skills needed for teamwork is really a team effort.
The first step is simple. Is to start by explicit enumeration of so-called skills or social skills, as we see in the following document. Students know what to do to make your group work and little by little, through continuous practice - are developing cooperative competition. Once you have experienced the practice of social skills Most students prefer to work in a positive atmosphere in which they feel good, respect and support than otherwise.
With the deck of cards each student can select their skills according to need or want to develop at a given time. When mastered, can keep the card in the deck. Ideally, at the end of the course each student should have the entire deck, but we know that the important thing is not to reach a nonexistent ideal progresses but in reality that is ours, knowing what we are and what we want.
