Abstract

Students benefit from a collaborative learning situation by taking greater responsibility for their education, broadening their perspectives, and improving their skills in academic and social interactions.

Librarians who employ collaborative learning techniques in their bibliographic instruction sessions may benefit from a better understanding of current research and theoretical discussions, much of which is taking place in composition studies. Collaborative learning and a social constructionist theory of knowledge should prompt us to reexamine our teaching methods as well as out associations with other faculty.
