collaborative learning in mathematics  

Definition

  • Over the past 2 decades, increases in high school graduation and college entry requirements have pressed schools to teach more advanced mathematics to a broader range of learners. To some educators, this situation seems untenable: How can we simultaneously increase rigor in and access to this notoriously challenging subject? One pedagogical approach that has been shown to increase rigor in and access to mathematics is a form of groupwork known as complex instruction.
