Sažetak

Croatian schools have been fostering student’s cooperatives since the 19th century and have until today 300 cooperatives which are part of the Croatian student’s cooperatives association. The main objective of student’s cooperatives activities is not an economic success but rather the granting of a higher number of learning opportunities. A student’s cooperative improves learning and teaching methods and capacitates adolescence students for life in the 21st century. Students acquire and develop outside the classroom some of the main characteristics of an entrepreneur such as innovativeness, diligence, busyness, the readiness for overtaking risk, team work. At the same time students develop a sense for crop maintenance and organic farming. Student’s cooperatives are well documented and very often recommended strategy for the improvement of students’ theoretical, cognitive and social abilities. Cooperatives include strategies that involve students working in teams under minor surveillance or coordination of teachers. According to Article 39, Primary and secondary education Law (Official Gazette of the Republic of Croatia, 87/2008) and the School statute of the Secondary school in Dalj, the school committee has issued a decision for the foundation of the Student’s cooperative Dalya. This facilitated to depict the organisation, teaching methods and social forms as well as working results of a cooperative in a practical way.
