CITW stands for cooperative instruction that works. I recently participated in a group to make a lesson plan that promoted cooperative learning and instruction that will work. We designed a science lesson where the students were put in groups to develop a class presentation about plants. My job was to design how the project would be cooperative. In the project, the students worked in cooperative groups where each student was given a role. They could help each other out, but mostly, these roles were individual. When everyone had their part done, they would come together to create an online presentation, using an online presentation site, and give the presentation together to the class to share their knowledge. Students in the group will learn from each other, and they will instruct the class to learn from them!
I will be able to use the concept of CITW in the future because I believe in cooperative learning. It is another alternative to simply lecturing. CITW is flipping the classroom with an aspect of student roles and responsibilities. I will simply be a resource to my students, but it is up to them to get the work finished. Everything about CITW is a learning experience.
