LEARN Strategy

The LEARN Strategy was designed to enable students to work in teams to learn together. Each step promotes creative cooperation; students think together to generate ideas to help them learn.

Research results indicated that students in the experimental classes performed a significantly higher percentage of study behaviors than comparison students in their cooperative study groups at the end of the school year.

Experimental group pretest scores averaged 18 percent with posttest scores averaging 70 percent. The comparison group pretest score average was 27 percent with the posttest score average 35 percent.
