In his new book, Scott Mandel outlines how educators can design meaningful learning experiences that will address standards and utilise modern-day Co-operative learning, brain research, and the Internet to effectively develop a student's ability to thrive in the twenty-first century's workforce. The co-operative learning techniques put forth in Cooperative Work Groups are designed to emphasize the students' best individual learning styles and integrate the newest technology into the students' work, ensuring their success as individuals working together in groups on long-term projects in today's work society.
