A. Well, it depends on what are you doing. For example, if you are doing an individual assignment, it is necessary to do it on your one. If you have to do some group work, of course, it is essential to do it with another person.

Generally, I believe that cooperation is a great skill, that requires to do some activities with different people which teach us how successfully work in a team. In today’s highly competitive environment, it is essential to do something with another person, cooperate and work or even play in a team. At the end of the day it will increase the value of both.

At school children start to learn their general skills, which they will apply in the future and one of the most important skills is cooperation and work in a team.

A. It could be literature, foreign language where children can talk to each other and have a dialog. Also, it could be physical activity subjects as well. Group assignment could be given almost in all subjects including literature, History, Physics, Chemistry, Arts ect.

Q. How could businesses work together with schools or universities?
A. Businesses, schools or universities can cooperate together and help each other. For example, at school teachers can observe the achievement of different students and can recommend to the businesses if they are looking for an employee. Universities and businesses can be helpful to each other in the same way. Most students are looking for a job, while many companies are looking for right employees. They can cooperate and help each other through, for example, organizing job opportunity events.

Q. How could wealthy countries help poor countries?
A. I think there are different ways to help. One of them is to organize special organization that will help to some poor country. The employees and volunteers of this organization will assist local people by donating clothes, organizing free lunches, dinners for people who need help. Also, I think, it might be medical support. Wealthy country can send medicine to the poor countries. The wealthy countries can provide basic needs like education, treatment and shelter for the people of poor countries. They can take many infrastructure improvement related projects. They can provide research facilities and can open trade facilities to help the poor countries as well.
