Jigsaw Classroom
The jigsaw classroom is a cooperative learning technique where students from diverse racial and ability backgrounds are placed in small groups. Each member is responsible for learning a specific part of a larger topic and then teaching it to their group members, creating interdependence and a shared goal. This method has been shown to be effective in reducing prejudice within desegregated classrooms.
