Cover Story: Even though cooperative learning studies have been conducted in all areas of the curriculum, few studies have investigated whether there are similar effects for students across several curriculum areas or age groups via professional learning and development (PLD) opportunities. In this study, we illustrated how research on cooperative learning can be translated into practice through our PLD work in one large school in New Zealand. We found that, by the end of the school year, students reported experiencing more cooperative learning opportunities in their classes. Teachers reported change in their practice and noted positive shifts in student engagement. Overall, our study showed that PLD opportunities can contribute to the successful implementation of cooperative learning. View this paper
