Co operative Learning in RE, CSPE & SPHE

Target Group: Teachers of RE, CSPE and SPHE
Course Aims: Co operative learning employs the philosophy that individuals must work together to achieve shared goals and to maximize their own and each other’s learning. It is a particularly useful approach to the teaching and learning of R.E. in that it moves away from competitive and individualistic styles of learning, and develops instead the individual’s responsibilities for group learning and vice versa. It fosters positive interdependence in the classroom, individual accountability, interpersonal and small group skills. This course is offered as part of the modular programme of SLSS and will be recognised for credits in the TDC post graduate educational studies diploma conducted through SLSS (see modular courses). It will be of relevance to all teachers of RE both exam and non exam whether or not they are pursuing post graduate studies. Participants attend two evening sessions for this course
