This paper focuses on the implementation of cooperative learning into the education process of mathematics-oriented courses for engineering students. It introduces the cooperative learning strategy and presents our experiences with this form of active learning in real university environments.
The redesign of the educational process based on cooperative learning involves the systematic integration of diverse activities aimed at enhancing the comprehension of mathematical concepts and increasing student engagement during face-to-face teaching to strengthen teamwork skills.
The conclusion of the paper addresses student feedback. This feedback was collected through questionnaire surveys, structured interviews with students, and teacher observations of student interactions during face-to-face teaching. Based on the collected data, recommendations are formulated for effective implementation of cooperative learning strategies into the university educational process, oriented to the current generation of students.
