Q1) Design an experimental study (basic elements,not detailed procedures)that could be used to answer the teachers' research question.
Answer: The researcher would randomly assign students to either the cooperative learning condition or the traditional lecture condition.Thus,the teacher is changing his or her approach and will note the results from the change.In this case,the change or "treatment" is the inclusion of cooperative learning.The traditional lecture group serves as the "control" condition.The researchers' goal is to compare the mathematical achievement scores from students in the cooperative learning condition with scores from students in the traditional lecture condition.If a difference between the two groups exists,then the researcher explores whether or not the difference is more than one might expect by chance (i.e. ,significance testing).

Q1) In your opinion,in what ways can educational systems become more effective without developing moral dilemmas for children?
Answer: Teachers can be very intentional about what they model to their students.Specifically,they need to be careful not to use threats of aggression in order to maintain classroom discipline.They can also model appropriate assertiveness,nonviolent conflict resolution strategies,appropriate self-defense,and the benefits of cooperation.Teachers can design their classroom and learning activities to be based on principles on an ethic of care.For example,the classroom should contain enough of the highly valued toys/books so as not to cause conflicts related to limited resources.Learning activities can be based on group projects that require collaboration.Until children have internalized the moral rules,teachers will want to provide direct instruction regarding how to engage in positive social behaviors and how to avoid aggression,bullying,and the isolation of other students.
