Its effectiveness has been documented through numerous research studies. It is commonly</p><p>accepted that cooperative learning is the best alternative for all pupils because it calls for</p><p>active interaction between pupils of diverse abilities and backgrounds and produces more positive</p><p>pupil outcomes in academic achievement, social behavior, and affective development. However, many</p><p>English primary school teachers in Malaysia still find it difficult to incorporate this system of</p><p>instructional method in their classroom. This study featured an activity oriented brainstorming</p><p>technique to find out if CL will improve the performance and motivation of pupils in descriptive</p><p>writing. The pupils' performances and motivation were assessed through pre-tests, post-tests,</p><p>brainstorming observation checklist and questionnaire. The study showed that pupils who were</p><p>thought descriptive writing using CL showed significant improvement in post test scores. The</p><p>significant achievement of the pupils was contributed by the high usage of Kagan's 5 elements of CL</p><p>and also the DOVE brainstorming guidelines. The study also showed that CL motivates the pupils. In</p><p>ensuring that the use of CL is effective in teaching the pupils, educators must train the pupils in</p><p>CL skills. The study recommended that the Kagan's five CL elements and also the DOVE brainstorming</p><p>guidelines are used for enhancing the interaction of pupils to effectively implement CL.</p><p></p> 2010 thesis https://ir.upsi.edu.my/detailsg.php?det=11665 https://ir.upsi.edu.my/detailsg.php?det=11665 text eng N/A openAccess Masters Perpustakaan Tuanku Bainun Fakulti Bahasa dan Komunikasi N/A
