The dynamics of the social interaction within the cooperative learning
group are accepted and considered to be one of the aspects that will influence the individual learner's feelings regarding the
group activity. The impact of the groupings on the quality and quantity
of the observable learning within the class is considered. For this study
the cooperative learning groupings were manipulated, considering
aspects of the learner's social relationships uncovered with the use of a
social questionnaire, which the learners completed. These details were
summarised by means of a sociometric table and a sociogram.
This study approaches the topic from two main perspectives. Primarily
observation and naive sketches, from the learners, formed the source of
the data and provided the initial perspective on the area of study. From
the viewpoint provided in this information specific grouping paramaters were applied to later groups of learners, and a survey conducted. / Educational Studies / M. Ed (Socio-Education)
