| Abstract | This study explores aspects of the hypothesis that communication in cooperative learning groups mediates effects of cooperative learning. The study develops a taxonomy of the cooperative communications of groups of predominantly Anglo and Hispanic elementary school students attending a public school where teachers were being trained to implement the cooperative learning methodologies of "Finding Out/Descubrimiento" (FO/D) and "Learning Together" (LT). Cooperative group size ranged from two to six students. A total of 29 third- through sixth-grade groups in 7 different classes were observed. Three of the seven classes were engaged in FO/D science lessons; the other four followed the LT format. During each observation, 5 minutes were spent recording communication in each group, and 5 minutes were spent filling out a group evaluation form. Seven categories of communication were identified: (1) social/emotional; (2) procedural supply; (3) information supply; (4) noncategorizable; (5) information request; (6) procedural demand; and (7) procedural request. Discussion of findings focuses on social/emotional communication, supply and demand, informational versus procedural communication, and teacher/student communication. Extensive concluding discussion explores six questions derived from the hypothesis that different types of individual contributions have different values in the interdependent learning situation.
