The concept of cooperation is exceptionally complex, yet it underlies academic and social success. Unfortunately, many students with social learning challenges struggle to understand and demonstrate cooperation in the many contexts in which it is called for. This course will introduce several wonderful YouTube videos in which characters demonstrate various forms of cooperation, accompanied by structured activities to support students in talking about the characters and then about themselves. The presenter will introduce activities to build cooperative abilities and visual supports to make the learning more effective. You will walk away with ideas you can immediately use.
