Cooperative games is the sum of all the achievements that a team have in common to reach an end, such as the achievement of each of the members, since the achievement and success of a member is the success and achievement of the entire equipment, that is; The participants that compose it do not compete with each other, but rather support each other whether they win or lose, they do so as a group or team.
These games are promoting participation, empathy, coordination, communication, trust, companionship with each other.
Cooperative games are usually fun, they promote union and when they win, everyone feels victorious, creating a high level of acceptance and union among the members making them share ideas, values and delegating actions and responsibilities, they are responsible for the results from the beginning of the game. game until it's over, perseverance is the key to support from team members.
In cooperative play, a traditional or competitive game can be modified to encourage collaboration between the participants since it is the only and necessary way to conclude it; the imagination, reflection and reasoning of the group are compromised if the union and camaraderie are not applied and when the expected result is reached, the gratification is good.
The secret is participation by playing with others and not against others, communicating, being part of the group, knowing one's own abilities and those of others and developing attitudes, accepting the challenges, the responsibilities that each one has along with the solution. Conflicts, by trusting in oneself and the support that are given, increases values and appreciation both personally and towards others, reducing discouragement, low self-esteem and fear of failure.
We can summarize that games in general have become an important tool in the new ways of teaching where tolerance is one of the most important values to apply from a young age, building from a base of zero appropriate behaviors in childhood, the Specialist, writer, psychologist and sports teacher Terry Orlick says that the basis of his training is that games teach the union of playing with others with mutual help and not against others as a fundamental basis of growth.
