  • Abstract
    In the current study, Johnson and Johnson´s Learning Together approach (1987) is employed for its emphasis on group learning instead of competition. The Learning Together approach involves a more collaborative model in which students are directed to coordinate their efforts toward task completion with less emphasis on competition. The exploratory study investigates the learners´ perceptions and attitudes toward the cooperative approach.
