õpperühma
Õpperühm refers to a learning group or study group. It is a common term in educational settings, particularly in Estonia, to describe a group of students who are learning together. These groups can be formed for various purposes, such as a class, a specific course, or a project. The size of an õpperühm can vary, from a small informal gathering to a larger formal class. The primary function of an õpperühm is to facilitate learning through collaboration, discussion, and mutual support among its members. Students in an õpperühm often share common learning objectives and work towards achieving them collectively. This collaborative environment can enhance understanding, provide different perspectives, and improve problem-solving skills. The concept of an õpperühm emphasizes the social aspect of learning, where interaction and shared experiences contribute significantly to the educational process. In some contexts, an õpperühm might also refer to a group undergoing vocational training or professional development. The term is broadly applicable to any structured or semi-structured group engaged in educational activities.
