Resumen
El principal objetivo de esta investigación es determinar la im-portancia del contenido de aprendizaje y el papel de los conocimientos previos de los alumnos para la formación de los grupos de aprendizaje cooperativo. La investigación se desarrolló en tres aulas de matemáticas de un centro de Educación Secundaria y la muestra estaba formada por 72 alumnos de 3º curso de ESO. Los resultados vienen a demostrar la exis-tencia de una correlación negativa entre el parámetro de igualdad (coopera-ción, colaboración y tutoría) y la mayor o menor proximidad cognitiva exis-tente entre los conocimientos previos de los alumnos y la estructura de los contenidos de aprendizaje
