Grouping learners in cooperative learning can help interaction and discussion among learners.However two main problems must be settled so as to group learners. The first is how to build the learner model, which describes the attributes of learners. The second is which technique would be appropriate for learners grouping according to the selected learner model. This paper aims to propose a novel cooperative learning approach using a multiple-intelligence based learners grouping technique. This contribution is three folds: (1) a conceptual model of learners' intelligence, (2) a pre-learning process that aims at: (a) acquiring knowledge of individual learners' intelligence according to the conceptual model of learners' intelligence; (b) grouping the learners into balanced groups based on this intelligence; and (c) calculating knowledge of collective intelligence, useful for cooperative learning during the learning process, and (3) a framework architecture, in order to support the new cooperative learning approach and demonstrate its feasibility. ß

“…Young Ju, Bain, and McCallum (2007) found that with explicit instructions of divergent thinking training on third culture children, they did improve originality and fluency in terms of ISSN 1948-5468 2012 www.macrothink.org/jsr problem-solving tasks. Through the implementation of curriculum that stresses active learning, exploration, self-evaluation, problem finding, and problem solving, Maker, Jo, and Muammar (2008) uncovered the students" performance of creative thinking increased within three consecutive years. In similar fashion, Ramey and Piper (1974) also found open classroom settings are favorable to development of creative thinking, compared to traditional classroom settings.…”

This article examines the theoretical underpinnings of critical thinking and creative thinking in order to encourage educators to include two key thinking skills in their daily classrooms. It draws purposefully and selectively from research evidence and theory across the fields of education, psychology, and professional development to draw attention to the assentation that more structured and theoretically informed teachings of critical and creative thinking in education could be useful to student learning. First, definitions of critical and creative thinking are discussed. Then, some studies with the focus of critical and creative thinking are reviewed. Finally, some suggestions for the implementation of two thinking styles in the classrooms are provided.
