3 Semester Hours of Graduate Credit

Course Overview

Featuring Dr. William Glaser and Dr. Roger Johnson, this course is based on Dr. Glasser’s Choice Theory that state that our behavior is guided by a set of basic needs. One classroom approach that meets students’ basic need is cooperative learning. You will see how cooperative learning and other classroom strategies will lead your students to quality work.

In this course, you will learn how:

• Create lessons that involve students.
• Best utilize cooperative teaching techniques.
• Help students set goals to work harder.
• Help students solve group and classroom problems that affect their learning.

Forcing students to learn doesn't work; gaining their cooperation does.
