INTRODUCTION
Cooperative learning is based on the social interdependence theories of Kurt Lewin and Morton Deutsch (Deutsch, 1949; Lewin, 1935)
Pioneers in cooperative learning, David and Roger Johnson devoted years of detailed research to clarify the conditions under which cooperative, competitive, increase student achievement, psychological adjustment, selfesteem, and social skills.
The instructional use of small groups so that students work together to maximize their own and each others learning (Johnson et al. 1990)
Cooperative Learning
To cause students to work together for both the individual and common good
Group tasks, usually either mastery or project work Rule behavior is all for one, one for all members help each other
Differences
Cooperative learning groups Positive interdependence Individual accountability Cooperative skill taught directly Shared leadership Responsibility for success of all group members Teacher observation and feedback Equal opportunity for success Group review process and set goals for future
Traditional Learning groups No positive interdependence No individual accountability No cooperative skill instruction Appointed leader Responsibility for ones own contribution Teacher withdraws from groups Uniform standard for success No review or goal setting
Teacher presentation Team work Individual quizzes Determination of team scores Team reward or recognition
Teacher presentation Team work Team versus team competition Scoring Team reward
Proficiency testing of students, team assignment Individual but team-assisted study Individual student quizzes Team scoring Recognition Individuals work, experts plan and give presentation Individual student quizzes Team scoring Recognition
Jigsaw
Cooperative Integrated Reading and Composition (CIRC)
Pairs work and teams work Individual student quizzes Team scoring Recognition
Believe in the importance of getting learners to work together for the individual and common good
Are able to get diverse learners to work cooperatively Are competent presenters and use independent study assignments effectively Are especially effective organizers and coordinators of work Are especially effective diagnosticians and clinicians, i.e., are able to identify and help students and teams having difficulty
When Preparing
Prepare the presentation utilizing elements of a good presentation
When Delivering
Make the presentation utilizing elements of a good presentation Set team goals
When Closing
Remind students of what they learned
Prepare students for work with their team Give the teams the assignment
Team members must not simply share answer but explain how they derived the answer and why they are correct (Simon, 2005)
Team members must stay on task, since time on task is consistently related to students learning
Teaching arrangements that encourage some children to provide assistance and others to receive it appear likely to increase dependency (Biemiller,1993)
Academic achievement Improved self-esteem Active learning Social skills development Peer acceptance and friendship
ROLE PLAYING
DEFINITION : A method for exploring the issues involved in complex social situations. It leads students to understand social behavior and values, their role in social interaction, and ways of solving problems more effectively. Fannie and Goerge Shaftel (1966) formulated roleplaying as a model of teaching. Specifically to help students study their social values and reflect on them. It has been developed to teach science (Barkoff,1993 and Collin,2003) and can be an assessment tool in oral examination in foreign language classes (Hoecherl and Boyce, 1994)
Rasulullah (peace be upon him) also used this method. For example:
A desert Arab came to Gods messenger and asked him about ablution. He demonstrated to him washing each part of his body thrice and then said that was the method of ablution. (Tirmidhi, 2000, Hadith No.157) He had also instructed all his companions as follows: Pray as you have seen me praying (Bukhari, 2000, Hadith Nos. 631, 6008)

Make no distinction between boys and girls in assigning problems. 4. Place equal numbers of girls and boys in small group discussion and cooperative learning group. 5. add to reading lists stories or books about women prominent in the subject area being studied. 6. Providing equal opportunities for boys and girls.

Interest Differences
Each child bring their own interest and motivation to the classroom. As a teacher, we should try to meet the interest of our students. To determine the true interest of the students, teachers must get inside their minds and motivating them to learn. Thats why teacher must be an enthusiastic person and a good motivator.
Teachers must be aware of important ways students vary and consciously take the diversity into account when planning and instructing so that the teachers can teach subject matter successfully.

Group Investigation
John Dewey first developed this idea in his book Democracy and Education back in 1916 Group Investigation is one form of cooperative learning model that emphasizes the participation and activities of students to find their own materials (information) lessons will be learned through the materials available An organizational medium for encouraging and guiding students' involvement in learning
Dewey's Educational Philosophy The goal of education is to develop socially responsible citizens who understand how to work together to solve problems and construct knowledge
Inquiry
Key Elements
Six steps: Groups plan their investigation-the procedures, tasks and goals consistent with the chosen subtopic Groups carry out the investigation as planned in the above step Groups plan their presentation Groups conduct the presentation The teacher and students evaluate the investigation and resulting presentations

Negative Effects
Wastes more time than direct instruction Not learning about other areas of the overall topic Not possessing required research skills Dissatisfaction with lack of cooperation
In Islamic perspective there are 3 kinds of the social family modal's view
Talaqqi Halaqah Usrah
Talaqqi learning is Islamic lesson conducted in a halaqah (small group). It is led by a qualified teacher and guided by a certain book in order to attain a certain spiritual status.
A halaqah is one way of getting to know others but it is also equally important to ensure one is making like-minded friends who are compatible with ones interests, values and mindset.
Usrah is a man and a wife, and relatives. The usrah ties the source of some rights and obligations.
Cooperative learning has different name such as collaborative learning, group discussion, peer group learning etc. It has various names depending on the perspective of who conducts a particular research on it (Ahmad, 2011).
Kagan (1994) defines cooperative learning through four principles: Positive interdependence, individual accountability, equal participation, and simultaneous interaction.
Many studies have been conducted on cooperative learning (Zaheer Ahmad et al,2010).
There is a study on the effects of cooperative learning versus traditional instruction on Perspective Teacher Learning Experience and achievement (Zaheer Ahmad, et al (2010)
The researchers found out from their research that cooperative learning fosters teacher academic achievement as compared to traditional instruction.
The research thereby concluded that the implication of CL is that teacher-educators should be to prefer innovative instructional strategy.
Ervin Staub (1971) conducted a study relating to how role play could be used for childrens learning and how role play could be helpful to children in sharing behaviors. Twin-sister-method was employed whereby one student need a help while another student provided help. He found out that the role play is very useful, significant and related to a measure of learning during role play (boys) and to family size and birth order (girls).
Conclusion
Cooperative Learning (student-team learning) as teaching learners to like and care for one another Teachers who use cooperative learning need to be good presenters, to be insightful in developing worthwhile team assignments, and to be able to monitor teamwork Role playing is the best way to develop the skills of initiative, communication, problem-solving, self-awareness, and working cooperatively in teams Educational success depend on the schools and teachers sensitivity to and respect for equity, defined in terms of diversity in all aspects Group Investigation and Partner Learning as the current model of teaching that are used for encouraging and guiding students' involvement in learning
