Following the four basic principles and the Seven Keys for Success of Kagan, you can conduct a CL practice to understand how interconnected the structures and team building are.
Dr. Spencer Kagan and his colleagues have developed Kagan Cooperative Learning, a leading approach to cooperative learning. Central to the Kagan approach are simple, but powerful cooperative learning instructional strategies called Kagan Structures such as: Numbered Heads Together, Timed Pair Share, RallyRobin, and Quiz-Quiz-Trade. Kagan Structures are used worldwide at all grades to boost student engagement and learning.
