Abstract

This study reports the effects of instruction of elementary students in a complex package of social and academic skills designed for use in cooperative groups while studying important information in inclusive general education classes. Twenty-five teachers and 519 fourth and fifth graders, including 45 students with learning disabilities (LD), participated. A pretest/posttest control-group design with random assignment was used to determine the effects of the instructional program. Data were analyzed for students with LD, all students with exceptionalities, and average-achieving (AA) students. Results indicated that experimental students’ scores on study-group performance, study-card creation, and tests of social and academic knowledge were significantly higher than control students’ scores. Furthermore, the number of prosocial behaviors and teamwork behaviors significantly increased for all subgroups of experimental students during study-group tasks, including students with LD and students with exceptionalities. Also, the number of antisocial behaviors significantly decreased for students with LD and students with exceptionalities.

包容性小学合作学习策略教学的社会和学术效应

本研究报告了小学生在学习全纳通识教育课程重要信息时，在合作小组中使用复杂的社会和学术技能包的教学效果。25名教师和519名四、五年级学生，其中包括45名学习障碍(LD)学生。采用随机分配的前测/后测控制组设计来确定教学程序的效果。对LD学生、所有异常学生和平均成绩(AA)学生的数据进行分析。结果表明，实验组学生的小组学习成绩、学习卡制作成绩、社会知识和学术知识测试成绩均显著高于对照组学生。此外，在学习小组任务中，实验学生的亲社会行为和团队合作行为的数量显著增加，包括弱智学生和异常学生。此外，障碍学生和异常学生的反社会行为数量也显著减少。
