Abstract

This book marks the first time that information has been collected on how cooperative learning is conceptualized and implemented within teacher education programs. The cases selected for inclusion are not a random sample. Indeed, each program represents significant, longstanding commitment by faculty to the importance of this instructional strategy. A study of these cases has yielded important new knowledge. We are now significantly smarter than we were at the inception of the project about what can be accomplished and how teacher educators have brought about a measure of success. But the programs and research described in this book have also illuminated many challenges for teacher educators and helped us to identify areas of necessary future exploration and research.
