Kagan Co-operative Learning Strategy

Kagan Co-operative Strategies 

Kagan co-operative learning offers powerful alternative for teaching interaction. These structures are instructional strategies designed to promote cooperation and communication in classroom,boost students confidence and retain their interest in classroom interaction.Kagan strategies that I have used in classrooms are as follows:

1     1.Think pair and share:-  It is a collaborative learning strategy where students work together to solve a problem or answer a question about an assigned reading.I had used this strategy to take the revision in the class for STD VII 

1     2.Rally Robin: - It is a co-operative learning strategy where students in a pair are given question with multiple answers and time is given to think. Partner: 1 shares the answer orally once he finishes partner: 2 shares his answer. Students rally the topic till teacher say time. I used this strategy to discuss on use of nuclear energy for productive use.
