Cooperative learning has been used in many areas of education the last 50 years. It is the specific instructional use of small groups of students working together to maximize learning. Recently, several scholars have recommended that cooperative learning should be used more in higher education and many professors are now using cooperative learning. Leaders in technology education have stated that cooperative learning is an important strategy for technology education.

520 $a Cooperative learning has been used in many areas of education the last 50 years. It is the specific instructional use of small groups of students working together to maximize learning. Recently, several scholars have recommended that cooperative learning should be used more in higher education and many professors are now using cooperative learning. Leaders in technology education have stated that cooperative learning is an important strategy for technology education.
520 $a Fifteen reviews and meta-analyses of over 1,000 research studies regarding cooperative learning at all age levels and in all subjects were reviewed for this study. The results indicated that cooperative learning increased academic performance, enhanced interpersonal relationships, and improved self-esteem. The average effect size was .74 for all age groups and .61 for students in higher education. The results were theoretically and practically significant.
520 $a To determine the level of awareness, training, and use of cooperative learning in technology education, a questionnaire was administered to 155 professors of technology education. The 1997--98 Industrial Teacher Education directory was used to identify the professors. An 83% response rate provided data to analyze.
520 $a The data from this survey provided evidence that there was a lack of training in cooperative learning methods among technology education professors. Most technology education professors (n = 83 or 72%) did not have any training and many that had been trained had only limited training. The data also indicated that increased training is associated with increased use of cooperative learning. The effect size (.49) was practically significant and educationally significant.
520 $a The findings indicated that a large gap exists between actual use and the level of use recommended by research and theory. Just over one day a month was the average use for the 83 (72%) technology education professors who used cooperative learning. Theory and research recommend 12 to 14 days a month. There was little evidence that years of teaching were associated with awareness, training, or use of cooperative learning.
