everything, such as skill, ideas, energy, teamworking sense, and problem solving skill.
On the other side, in collaborative learning, the existing processes such as lecturing, listening and taking notes are not entirely missing. The collaborative
learning process in the classroom, the teachers still have to give explanations, and
students have to listen and take notes.
3. Collaborative Methods
Smith and MacGregor 1992 share that the collaborative method is put based on the assumption about the students through learning process. Those are:
a. Learning is active and constructive
To get the knowledge, the students must be active in learning the material. The students must reconstruct hisher previous knowledge after getting the new
information. Furthermore, the students are expected to create something related to the learning material.
b. Learning depends on the context
The students are involved in solving the material in which the context of material is already known by the students.
c. Every student has hisher own background
Students who have different charateristic in so many things such as characteristic, background, experience, and learning style.
d. Learning is social
In the learning process, there are social interaction for the students to develop meaning.
4. Collaborative Learning Steps
Hosnan 2014 mentions that there are eight steps in doing collaborative learning: First, the students in a group setting goals and divide tasks on their own.
Second, all students in the group reading, discussing, and writing. Third, collaborative group works together to identify, demonstrate, research, analyze and
formulate the answers of task or problem in worksheet or problems found by themselves. Then, after summing up the results of problem solving, each student
writes a full report on their own notebook. Next, the teacher picks one random groups to present the results of group discussions in front of the class. Other groups
observe, observe, compare the results of the presentation, and respond. This activity is carried out for approximately 20-30 minutes. After that, each student of
collaborative group does elaboration, inferention, and revision if necessary to be submitted report later on. Then, the report of each student related to the submitted
assignments are arranged per group of collaborative. At last, all the reports are corrected, commented, marked, given back to the student. Then for the next
meeting, they discuss the reports. PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
