Synopsis

The study examines the method of cooperative learning in inclusive classroom settings. Its focus lies on helping practices that emerge in response to increased heterogeneity in the classroom. Drawing on case reconstructions from fifth to ninth grade, the study explores how teachers establish forms of group work and how students’ interactions with one another — which can also be understood as ways of negotiating inequality — change over time.
