Numerous studies have supported the effectiveness of STAD, TGT, and CIRC
Overall, research has shown that CL typically produces higher levels of academic
achievement, improved interpersonal relationships among students, and greater personal
and social development (e.g., increased self-esteem and feelings of self-worth) than either
competitive or individualistic instructional conditions
In regards to academic achievement, the use of CL seems to result in more higher level
reasoning, more frequent generation of new ideas and solutions, and greater transfer of what
is learned within one situation to another
