Description

Chapter 7 brings together ideas from the book’s previous six chapters in the form of five lessons, with each lesson followed by commentary by this book’s authors and reflection opportunities for you, the readers of this book. We hope you will reflect on such matters as the links between the lessons themselves and the cooperative learning principles; how you might use some of the cooperative learning techniques in the lessons in your own language teaching; and what variations to the lessons you might like to try.
