The Effect of Learning Together Technique of Cooperative Learning Method on Students’ Mathematics Achievement and Cooperative Study Skills

İlhan Varank,Gürkan Kuzucuoğlu.




Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of cooperative learning method on fifth grade students’ mathematics achievement and whether there is difference between male and female students in terms of cooperative study skills. The participants of the study were two fifth grade classes including a total of 68 students (37 male and 31 female). While students in the control group were taught math operations with natural numbers by classical direct instruction, students in the experimental group were taught the same subject by learning together technique of cooperative learning method. Although experimental group students’ average post test achievement score was higher than control group students’ average score, this difference was not significant. In the mean time, there was no significant difference between female and male students’ cooperative study skills.

Key words: cooperative learning method, learning together technique, mathematics teaching, elementary education.
