Description

A model developed by the author in which learners act as a united unit in a team context, constructively reconciling their actions while each participant is responsible for his/her own part of the work. It defines seven functions of integrative collaboration (learning, socio-cultural, communicative, self-realisation, diagnostic, correction, motivating) and didactic principles including learners' cognitive activation, learning process intensification, learning material flexibility and the reflection principle. The article developed and experimentally verified the model for teaching Building Constructions at Riga Construction College.
