I am teaching science and english in junior high school and I have read several studies about STAD cooperative learning model. However I wanted to have an indepth and comprehensive knowledge on how to implement this strategy in the philippine settings in my teaching the science concepts.
To implement this strategy in teaching science concepts in a Philippine setting, it may be helpful to begin by identifying the specific learning goals and objectives you hope to achieve through this approach. You could also consider the unique needs and cultural perspectives of your students, and how the STAD model could be adapted to address these factors. Once you have a clear understanding of your instructional goals and the needs of your students, you could begin to plan and design STAD activities and assignments that align with these objectives. This might involve developing lesson plans and assessments that allow students to work collaboratively and build off each other's ideas, while also providing individual feedback and support. It is also important to promote an inclusive and supportive classroom environment that fosters constructive dialogue and mutual respect among students. This can be achieved through strategies such as establishing clear expectations for behavior and participation, providing meaningful feedback and praise, and encouraging students to assist each other as they work towards common goals.
You can recommend literature and research on the Student Teams Achievement Division (STAD) cooperative learning technique for teaching junior high school science. Here are some sites you might find useful:
