The cooperative learning: Understanding and increasing the knowledge of the facilities design without a professor extra effort

Lecturing has been prevailing in higher education. This teaching and learning model hinders the understanding of fundamental concepts in practical courses. The cooperative learning allows an improvement in the student’s achievements, attitudes and persistence. The main goal of this work is to implem...
