I have had the opportunity
to teach in several
innovative public schools.
My research focus has been the development and dissemination of cooperative
learning techniques for the classroom throughout the U.S., Canada, and in
several other countries. I am the author of numerous articles and book chapters
and co-author with my brother David of several books, including Learning
Together and Alone, Circles of Learning, and Active Learning: Cooperation in the
College Classroom.
See "Working cooperatively: proof
that students who work together, learn together."
