Cooperative Learning is a relationship in a group of students that requires
positive interdependence (a sense of sink or swim together), individual
accountability (each of us has to contribute and learn), interpersonal
skills (communication, trust, leadership, decision making, and conflict
resolution), face-to-face promotive interaction, and processing (reflecting
on how well the team is functioning and how to function even better).
