Reviews for Cooperative Learning: Integrating Theory and Practice
Gilles focuses the majority of the book on the relationship in the classroom between the individual teacher and the students. She gives teachers ammunition to overcome resistance to cooperative learning by presenting well-substantiated research on virtually every page of her book showing the benefits of having students study together. -Ted Wohlfarth, PSYCCRITIQUES
