WHAT IS JIGSAW?
• The jigsaw technique is a method of organizing classroom activity
that makes students dependent on each other to succeed. It breaks
classes into groups that each assemble a piece of an assignment and
synthesize their work when finished. It was designed by social
psychologist Elliot Aronson to help weaken racial cliques in forcibly
integrated schools. A study by John Hattie found that the jigsaw
method benefits students' learning.
ADVANTAGES:

• Improve students’ motivation.


• Increase the enjoyment of the learning experience.
• Increasing positive educational outcomes.
• Most teachers find Jigsaw easy to learn.
• It can be used for another subject.
DISADVANTAGES:

• Require some time to prepare students to learn how to


work in groups.
• Require some time to make groups that each group has
heterogeneity in their member ability, and
• Teacher should make special preparation for teaching
in the class.
10 STEPS OF JIGSAW
1. Appoint a leader for each home group.
2. Divide the day’s lesson into five to six segments.
3. Divide students into five to six-person home groups. Members should be diverse in terms of gender, ability and ethnicity (if applicable).
4. Assign each student in the home group to learn one segment.
5. Give students enough time to comprehend and master their assigned segment.
6. Form temporary expert groups by instructing students with the same segments to sit together. Give them enough time to discuss the main
points, clarify questions and rehearse the presentations they will make to their home group.
7. After the given time, bring students back to their home groups.
8. Ask each member to present his or her segment to the group. The leader should encourage the flow of discussion and the asking of question.
9. The teacher should roam around the classroom and observe the process. Make appropriate interventions for groups experiencing difficulties.
10. At the end of the session, give a quiz to assess student learning .
How Jigsaw is used in Elementary Social
Instruction?
• The Jigsaw strategy asks a group of students to become
“experts” on a specific text or body of knowledge and
then share that material with another group of students.
This strategy offers a way to help students understand
and retain information while they develop their
collaboration.

1. Is Jigsaw a cooperative learning?
2. Does studying Jigsaw will help you as a student?
3. Do we need to follow the following steps in implementing this strategy?

5. Does Jigsaw instill a sense of ownership in learning?
ASSIGNMENT:

• In your previous group, share your understanding


or learnings about the discussion and create a
question answerable by Yes or No to be answered
by different members of the group. After that
everyone will share their different experiences
into the class next meeting.
