Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The jigsaw classroom was designed to create a cooperative learning environment where students work together to achieve a common goal, known as a superordinate goal. This helps to break down barriers between different groups of students and promote cooperation rather than competition. The goal is for each individual student to become an expert in one part of the material and then share their knowledge with their group to complete the whole puzzle. This process provides individuating information for the student to assimilate, but does not create status inequalities or promote competition.
