Collaboration in Learning and Teaching Statistics (2008, background): “Cooperative activity among faculty should be as carefully structured as is cooperative interactions among students in classrooms ( Johnson et al., 1991b ).”
The impact of cooperative learning on student engagement: Results from an intervention (2013, background): “…have demonstrated that cooperative learning structures are related to higher academic achievement than competitive and individualistic structures (Dansereau and Johnson, 1994; Johnson et al., 1998, 2000, 2007; Johnson and Johnson, 1989; Roseth et al., 2008; Slavin, 1996; Springer et al., 1999).”
Cooperation and the Use of Technology (2007, background): “Cooperative base groups are long-term, heterogeneous cooperative learning groups with stable membership (D. W. Johnson et al., 1998b; D. W. Johnson, Johnson, & Smith, 1998).”
Pedagogies of Engagement: Classroom‐Based Practices (2005, background): “2 More recently, Millis and Cottell [39] adapted Kagan’s cooperative learning structures for higher education faculty, and Johnson, Johnson, and Smith began adapting the conceptual cooperative learning model to higher education [40–42].”
Examining pre-service teacher competence in lesson planning pertaining to collaborative learning (2012, background): “…taken into account during instructional planning as well: planning the use of time during the lesson, or a clear and complete instruction from the teacher in order to avoid many whole-class interventions to clarify the expectations (Johnson et al. 1991, Jacobs et al. 2002, Gillies and Boyle 2010).”
Collaborative Learning and Critical Thinking: Testing the Link (2017, background): “For example, having students learn collaboratively is positively associated with academic achievement (Johnson, Johnson, & Smith, 1998; Springer, Stanne, & Donovan, 1999); positive attitudes toward and persistence in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics courses (Bowen, 2000); psychologi”
The Intellectual Development of Science and Engineering Students. Part 2: Teaching to Promote Growth (2004, methodology): “A cooperative learning (CL) model formulated by David and Roger Johnson and applied to engineering education by Karl Smith [34] is particularly suitable for addressing the learning needs of students across the spectrum of levels of intellectual development.”
A Survey of Principles Instructors: Why Lecture Prevails (2014, background): “…outcomes increased by 0.53- 0.64 standard deviations when students worked together in collaborative learning;a and if, in addition, the students were not competing with each other for grades, then academic achievement increased by an average of 0.88 standard deviations (Johnson et al., 1998a,b).”
Fidelity of Implementation of Research‐Based Instructional Strategies (RBIS) in Engineering Science Courses (2013, background): “In an updated study, Johnson, Johnson, and Smith (1998b) found similar results when they examined 168 studies between 1924 and 1997.”
