Cooperative Learning Study In Junnior English Teaching

English teaching has achieved a lot during the process of competence oriented education reform. However, many problems still remain to be resolved. The principal issue is that the creativity of the students hasn't been brought into full play. The demerits of the traditional teaching are still working.

During the process of the development of the cooperative learning, there occurs a trend that it will melt with other relative teaching theories. Through the further study of cooperative learning theory and constructivism theory, we find that these two theories are complementary to each other. Constructivism emphasizes that the students cannot gain knowledge simply from the teachers or other people but by making a construction of knowledge based on what they have owned. Constructivism also stresses on the influences made by the interactions among the students. It believes that learning is a process of constructing meaning, which is realised by the cooperative activities of people under certain circumstances.

That's why the teaching form of cooperative learning can help us carry out the constructivism teaching method.In this paper, the present English class teaching has been analysed, then the...
