All Cooperative and Collaborative Learning Theorists

Cooperative and Collaborative Learning Theorists groups researcher-practitioners who developed a specific structure for students to work together, in pairs or small groups, as their central contribution. Belongs here: David W. Johnson and Roger T. Johnson, brothers who co-directed the University of Minnesota's Cooperative Learning Center; and Jonathan Bergmann and Aaron Sams, the Colorado chemistry teachers who co-developed the flipped classroom model, which restructures class time for peer and teacher-guided collaborative work. Does not belong here: a theorist of individual cognition, grouped under Learning and Cognitive Theorists, and a curriculum designer whose method is not built specifically around peer collaboration, grouped under Curriculum and Instructional Design Theorists.
