Learning through cooperation in forming Chemistry specific competences

Abstract

Cooperative learning is a technique, designed to invest deeply in collaboration between students, thus cultivating relationships of mutual respect and constructive interaction. Cooperative learning methodology presents methods, procedures and rules for distributing active tasks to students, so that they can help each other in learning. However, this is no longer enough to intuitively or verbally facilitate some information. In order for the students to record and internalize the information, which will later be faithfully reproduced, cognitive and social interactions are necessary, through which learning/studying will provide the possibility of obtaining a learning result, thus stimulating the formation of specific chemistry skills
