The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of Jigsaw-I model of cooperative learning (CL) on achievement of basic science process skills of 8th graders while working in science laboratory. An experimental study using randomized pretest posttest control group design was conducted. Sixty four male students were randomly selected from two intact 8th grade classes, 32 students from each class. Each group of thirty two students was further randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. Experimental group performed the experiments in science laboratory by using Jigsaw-I (JI) whereas control group performed the same experiments through traditional group work (TGW). “Basic Science Process Skills Laboratory Achievement-Tests (BSPSLAT-I & II)”were used as pre and post- tests to collect the data. The data was analyzed through independent sample t-test and ANOVA. The results showed significantly higher achievement of basic science process skills in favor of Jigsaw-I as compared to traditional group work. Moreover Jigsaw-I proved to be a better science laboratory technique both for low and medium achievers to gain basic science process skills. This study has implications for elementary science teachers to apply Jigsaw-I while science laboratory work for students’ higher achievement in basic science process skills

Abstract Collaborative studies at the University of Iowa and the National Center for Voice and Speech aim to help the voices of teachers. Investigators study how cells and tissues respond to vibration doses simulating typical vocalization patterns of teachers. A commercially manufactured instrument is uniquely modified to support cell and tissue growth, to subject tissues to vocalization-like forces, and to measure viscoelastic properties of tissues. Through this basic science approach, steps toward safety limits for vocalization and habilitating rest periods for professional voice users will be achieved.
