We wish to thank Katalin Forray R., Ildikó Bárdossy, Szilvia Makai, Terézia Radics Szerencsés, Csaba Pintér and the teachers and students having participated our courses and university seminars, heaving learned together with us, for their valuable advice on this book.

If pedagogy is art, then for the educator co-operative learning is like language for the poet, a paintbrush for the artist, a chisel and hammer for the sculptor: a tool for the free, autonomous and pure practice of the art. Co-operative learning reveals the secrets of learning together and sharing knowledge, and its practice makes a master in the same way as poets are born by language, as the paintbrush leads the artist’s hand, as the chisel reveals a masterpiece from the rock.

If pedagogy is art, then in co-operative learning, we educators partake in the playful creative freedom as much as slave-like diligence.

And if pedagogy is not art, then it is time for us to make it an art while learning together!
