    DESCRIPTIVE
    Cooperative Learning is a group of strategies that allow students to learn
    together with their peers. Its basic form includes the teacher dividing a
    content topic intro three of four parts and giving each part to different
    students in a group. They, then, have to learn their part, and afterwards,
    share with their peers. Ultimately, they have to write a summary or answer
    questions about the whole topic. In order to be successful in a cooperative
    learning task, students need to develop some specific skills, which are going
    to be detailed in the next paragraph.

    - Children have more space in their memory capacity


    - Motivation
    - Curiosity
    - Less chance of fossilyzed errors
    - Easier pronunciation articulation
    - Long-life learning if they continue to put it into practice
    - Oportunity of learning same contents in different cultural perpectives 

    INTRODUCTION
    - Children have more space in their memory capacity
    - Motivation
    - Curiosity

    BENEFITS
    - Less chance of fossilized errors
    - Easier pronunciation articulation
    - Long-life learning if they continue to put it into practice
    - Opportunity of learning same contents in different cultural
    perpectives 

    DRAWBACKS
    - If the children do not use it in real contexts they might forget within
    time.

    Children have more memory capacity and this helps language learning. Also, they tend
    to be more motivated to discover new language. This has a potential positive aspect in
    their long-life language learning. Besides that, as their muscles are still in development,
    they might articulate better the sounds of the new language which leads to less chances
    of fossilization of wrongs patters of grammar and pronunciation.

    Reflect on whether these articles make you re-evaluate the legacy of famous explorers, such as
    Cook, with a short post on this in this week’s discussion forum

    Brazil was once "discovered" by Pedro Alvarez Cabral. During lots of year, we "celebrated" this
    discovery. However, with the increase of information sharing through internet, most people
    could change their idea of how the encounters between Portuguese explorers and the
    indigenous people in Brazil really was. The same, I think, occurred to people's perception on
    how Cook behaved when he met the aboriginal people. The articles show points of views
    based on new research accounts, what might affect those who believed that Cook was such a
    pacificist explorer. Famous explorers have always a hidden side story that is often left out in
    uncritical texts. I think humans in general tend to feel superior when they find something new.
    And, for my fear, this might happen when we find out other kinds of life outside the Earth. No
    one guarantees that we have learned with our mistakes or with other explorers'.

    I had never heard about this Irish people's feeling towards Bono before this lesson. However, I
    have recently visited Ireland and, during a night out with friends who happened to be teachers,
    I overheard so many conversations and most of them were about other teachers. It seemed
    odd at first but then I realized it was very similar to Brazil, when we, teachers, gather together.
    We talk about other people's lives and often in a bad way. backing to my friends in Ireland,
    some of them were most angry at some of their colleagues who had gotten better positions in
    the school board group. In Brazil, at least, where I live, people often feel angry at people - who
    are at the same job level as their own - who get higher positions. I saw some relationship in
    these aspects.

    Now, reading and listening about Bono's situation, it seems to me Irish people take this
    "begrudgery" to a higher level. In Brazil, we tend to respect and like most of artists and icons.
    However, people from poor communities, such as slams and those who sing songs belonging to
    the "funk" music style, tend to have their talents minimized and often "begrudged" by the so-
    called culturally elevated people. To finish, I can see many similarities in terms of this envy
    people feel about others. And I believe it may be true in some countries as well.

    I totally agree with you, and the closest word I could find was "recalque" which is pretty
    characteristic of our culture.

    positive: applauds, proves,

    negative: confuses, alleges, speculates

    neutral: says, affirms, reports, maintains,

    1.Ugwu (2015) interestingly states that musicians rely on the law to protect their musical
    compositions.

    2.The view that patchwriting constitutes plagiarism is rightly argued by Howard (1992). (Use
    the passive voice.)

    3.In Ugwu (2015), Fakler allegedly suggests that no musical work is completely original.

    4.Bailey and Challen (2015) correctly explain that the difference between paraphrasing and
    patchwriting might be confusing for some students.

    5.Ugwu (2015) correctly says that musicians rely on the law to protect their musical
    compositions. (I agree with his statement.)

    6.In Ugwu (2015), Fakler mistakenly claims that no musical work is completely original. (I
    disagree with his argument.)

    7.In Ugwu (2015), Fakler interestingly concludes by explaining we are all standing on the
    shoulders of giants. (I think his idea is interesting.)
