jigsaw classroom technique  

Definición

  • The jigsaw classroom technique restructures traditional classrooms to engineer reductions in tensions between groups of students and to improve academic performance. It is the clearest and most potent operationalization of the contact hypothesis, which itself is social psychology's preeminent theoretical perspective on reducing intergroup hostilities.
