learning experiences in
primary school.
Introduction
Schools are being encouraged to adopt pedagogical practices that promote
the active involvement of students in learning (Tapscott 1999). One practice
that has received widespread coverage over the past two decades is cooperative,
small-group learning. Interest in co-operative learning has
developed as schools have become more aware of the academic and social
benefits that accrue to students from working together and helping each
other. Academic benefits have included enhanced achievements in reading
comprehension and vocabulary development, written expression, mathematics
understanding and comprehension, and conceptual development in
science (Calderon et al. 1998; Howe et al. 1995; Shachar and Sharan 1994;
Whicker et al. 1997). Enhanced learning has also occurred when students
work in computer-mediated collaborative groups on a range of different
topics and subject matter (Zammuner 1995). Furthermore, children with
diverse learning and adjustment needs have gained from their participation
in co-operative learning (Gillies and Ashman 2000; Ragan 1993).
Other benefits include more time on task, increased motivation and
perseverance with tasks, and improved communication skills (Hunt et al.
1994). In short, achievements have covered a range of subject and curriculum
areas and included parallel changes in behaviours, attitudes and
interactions.

Introdução
A escola vem sendo estimulada a adotar práticas pedagógicas que geram o envolvimento ativo dos alunos no aprendizado (Tapscott 1999). Uma das práticas que recebeu ampla cobertura ao longo das últimas duas décadas é a de aprendizado cooperativo em pequenos grupos. O interesse no aprendizado cooperativo se desenvolveu a partir do momento que os colégios se tornaram mais conscientes dos benefícios sociais e acadêmicos que resultam aos alunos quando eles trabalham juntos e ajudam uns aos outros. Os benefícios acadêmicos incluem o aperfeiçoamento na compreensão de leituras, no aumento de vocabulário e expressões escritas, raciocínio lógico e matemático, e um avanço conceitual em ciências (Calderon et al. 1998; Howe et al. 1995; Shachar e Sharan 1994; Whicker et al. 1997). O aprendizado foi aprimorado também quando os alunos trabalharam em grupos colaborativos mediados por um computador em uma gama de diferentes tópicos e assuntos (Zammuner 1995). Além disso, crianças com aprendizado diversificado e necessidades específicas progrediram através de sua participação no aprendizado cooperativo (Gillies e Ashman 2000; Ragan 1993). Outros benefícios compreendem mais tempo para tarefas, motivação apurada, perseverança nas atividades, e capacidade de comunicação melhorada (Hunt et al. 1994). Em suma, essas conquistas garantem a variedade de assuntos, grades curriculares e inclui mudanças paralelas no comportamento, atitude e interação dos alunos.
