BACKGROUND
Welcome to my post, in the previous discussion I have discussed about : UNDERSTANDING COOPERATIVE LEARNING, BASIC CONCEPT OF COOPERATIVE LEARNING, CHARACTERISTICS OF COOPERATIVE LEARNING, ELEMENTS OF COOPERATIVE LEARNING MODELS, COOPERATIVE LEARNING OBJECTIVES. Before I discuss further, I will rewrite the foreword of the past post. Cooperative learning arises because of the development in the existing learning system. Cooperative learning replaces individual learning systems. Where teachers continue to provide information (teacher as center) and learners just listen. Cooperative learning has the support of Vygotsky the figure of constructivism theory. Read More
In this post I will discuss about : DIFFERENCES OF COOPERATIVE LEARNING WITH TRADITIONAL LEARNING, BENEFITS OF USE OF COOPERATIVE LEARNING. To improve the quality of this article, I really expect criticism and suggestions from friends.

DISCUSSION
DIFFERENCES OF COOPERATIVE LEARNING WITH TRADITIONAL LEARNING
Cooperative Learning Group |
Traditional Learning Group |
| Individual accountability measures the mastery of the subject matter of each group member. Groups are given feedback on the learning outcomes of their members so that they can know who needs help and who can provide assistance. | Individual accountability is often overlooked so that tasks are often encouraged by one group member, while the other group members only 'nice meals alone' on the success of their friend who was a 'contractor'. |
| The existence of positive interdependence, help each other and give each other motivation so there promotive interaction. | Teachers often allow students who dominate the group or rely on a group. |
| Heterogeneous learning groups, whether in academic ability, gender, race, ethnicity, etc. so that they can know who needs help and who can provide assistance. | Study groups are usually homogeneous. |
| Group leaders are elected democratically or rotate to provide leadership experiences for group members. | Group leaders are often determined by teachers or groups to be allowed to choose their leaders in their own way. |
| Social skills needed in mutual work such as leadership, communication skills, trusting others and managing conflicts are directly taught. | Social skills are often not taught directly. |
| While cooperative learning is ongoing, teachers continue to monitor through observation and intervene in case of problems in cooperation among group members. | Monitoring through observation and intervention is often done by the teacher at the time of group learning is in progress. |
| Teachers look directly at the group process that occurs within the learning groups. | Teachers often do not pay attention to group processes that occur in learning groups. |
| Emphasis is not only on task completion but also on interpersonal relationships (interpersonal relationships of mutual respect). | Emphasis is often only on task completion. |

CONCLUSION
Every thing must have advantages and disadvantages as well as cooperative learning. Cooperative learning teaches how to work together in solving a problem in groups through discussions with other friends who have different views and thoughts, through which each member will have a broader view of sharing knowledge, experience and skills so that through all the group can complete the task given through shared thinking that is considered true and good. But because of the diversity can also lead to disputes and contradictions due to the existence of different thoughts so that in the process takes a long time so that the opposition does not happen required the cohesiveness among members.
