From the Web

1. Eliot Aronson is one of the originators of one of CL’s best-known techniques: Jigsaw. Several years ago, he launched a website on Jigsaw and other areas of his work: http://www.jigsaw.org. Recently, that site was updated. There’s even a link to a JigsawHelper website.
    

2. CL goes with all areas of education, including Physical Education. For ideas on this, Sports4Kids offers an entire book that can be read on the web: http://www.sports4kids.org/PDFs/SportsGamesCGT.PDF. The book has a section on cooperative games mostly for elementary/primary. The book’s title is Sports and Games/Class Game Time Handbook.
    
3. Two other newsletters on CL and related matters are also available online. The most recent issue of the Cooperative Learning Center’s newsletter (http://www.co-operation.org/#newsletters) features articles on cooperation and building democracy, democratic decision making & controversy, and ending isolation and alienation. Kagan Publications and Professional Development offers an electronic magazine at  http://www.kaganonline.com/Newsletter/index.html. The most recent issue contains articles on optimizing engagement, activating various intelligences, using technology to support cooperation, and linking CL and block scheduling.
