Active and cooperative learning: tips and tricks (part I)

Information about the value of active and cooperative learning for students does not typically provide hints for making it work in the classroom. This and subsequent articles in this series will discuss tips and tricks that help to make classroom activities successful. This first article gives a brief background on active and cooperative learning. The background for dramas or kinesthetic learning activities that get students to physically act out a concept or algorithm are also discussed along with some example activities of this type.
