Cooperative learning has been shown to be a highly beneficial teaching methodology for student learning and motivation. It also has huge benefits for teaching, although there is still a widespread lack of knowledge on how to implement this highly structured series of techniques. In this study, teacher motivation was tested under the 3 × 2 achievement goal model to see how it relates to the application of CL in the classroom using sequential generalized estimating equation models. This theoretical model had not previously been applied to teacher motivation, and these teachers, from different educational stages and different schools, had received specific training in CL and had been monitored for one year. The results showed a high orientation towards self–approach goals, with the influence of having received such training, having more experience in applying CL and it being facilitated at the primary education stage. The implications of these results are discussed, as various facilitating factors for the use of CL in the classroom can be found.

El objetivo del estudio fue analizar la eficacia de diferentes estrategias de intervención del ejercicio físico y relacionarlas con la percepción de la calidad de vida relacionada con la salud (CVRS) en adultos mayores sedentarios. Participaron 100 sujetos, con edades comprendidas entre los 60 y 70 años, que fueron divididos aleatoriamente en cuatro grupos: control, recomendación, prescripción y monitorización. La intervención de ejercicio físico tuvo una duración de 6 meses. Para la valoración de la CVRS se utilizó el cuestionario SF-36. Los grupos monitorización y prescripción obtuvieron los mayores valores en todos los dominios en el análisis intragrupos. La función física y la salud general y mental obtienen los mayores valores significativos entre grupos (p<.05). Entre los grupos prescripción y monitorización no existen diferencias significativas en ninguna dimensión. Sin embargo el grupo de monitorización obtuvo valores superiores en salud mental, no siendo así en salud física. PALABRAS CLAVE: tercera edad, ejercicio físico, intervención, calidad de vida. ABSTRACT The aim of the study was to analyze the effectiveness of different intervention strategies of exercise and relate the perception of quality of life related to health (HRQOL) in sedentary older adults. It involved 100 subjects, aged between 60 and 70, who were randomly divided into four groups: control, recommend, prescribe and monitor. The exercise intervention lasted 6 months. The SF-36 questionnaire was used for the assessment of HRQOL. The monitoring and prescription groups had higher values in all domains in the intragroup analysis. Physical function and health and mental health obtain the highest significant values between groups (p <.05). There are no significant differences at all in any domain among prescription and monitoring groups. However, the monitoring group obtained higher values in mental health, but were not in physical health. KEY WORDS: Quality of life related to health, elderly, sedentary, exercise prescription at home and monitored.
