Types of work in learning
Searching the web I could find many definitions about different types of work in learning, some scientific, other philosophical, pedagogical, and some psychological definitions. Must confess that most of them are quite interesting definitions, as for example in:
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning#Simple_non-associative_learning” which mentions that “Learning is a change in behavior based on previous experience”. But based on the study we are doing, and also based in Morten Flate Paulsen’s work:
“http://www.slideshare.net/MortenFP/cooperative-freedom-as-a-guiding-star-for-online-education”, I will concentrate myself in the slide number nine that mentions three types of learning:
* Individual learning: which provides much individual flexibility but little learning community;
* Collaborative learning: which provides much individual flexibility and access to a learning community;
* Cooperative learning: which requires participation in a learning community, but limits individual flexibility.
Analyzing the pros and cons of each one what can we say?
In my opinion the three different types of learning can be important in different steps of learning, but no doubt that in all schools there must be a big change. We have to consider the third type, cooperative learning, as the most important change we have to make in the traditional schools. We cannot stop the general feeling that "Unity is Strength" or Unity is Power or Unity is Knowledge.
We are realizing that together we can make better and more and that feeling is bigger than the feeling of flexibility.

What I understand is that cooperative learning can provide individual freedom and participation in a global group of work. In my point of view the biggest challenge in a short term will be a general “negotiation” to increase the flexibility in the cooperative learning, but, no doubt, this is the best way at this moment to make possible a successful learning.
