Teaching Learning

Education today needs to be responsive to the diverse needs of our learners in order to make them globally competent. Innovative initiatives need to be brought into the present education system in order to meet the growing demands of our society. Our education system does not function in isolation with our society and so, along with academic aspects, the social aspects of learning too, have to be focussed on. This is possible with quality teaching strategies being introduced in our teaching learning process and one such strategy promoting the same is Cooperative Learning. Cooperative learning involves students working together in small groups to accomplish shared goals. It is widely recognized as a teaching strategy that promotes socialization and learning among students from kindergarten through college and across different subjects and science is no exception. Science enables pupils to be involved in group work where they have the opportunity to share ideas and cooperate with each other in collaborative practical activity. What is needed today is a new wave of educated students ready for modern scientific research, teaching and technological development. With students of diverse abilities and differing rates of learning in our classrooms, it is, therefore, essential for the teacher to have the knowledge of how students learn science and how best to teach. The present study was taken up in this context to find out the effectiveness of cooperative learning strategy in science teaching.

The rapid development of information has the potential to spread negative content such as hoax news, hate speech, or issues of radicalism and intolerance. In this case, critical reading skills are needed. By reading critically, readers can become more objective, able to sort and not easily swayed. However, the learning implementation of critical reading is not easy, especially coupled with the students' low reading interest and ability, especially towards English reading texts. This narrative review aims to examine cooperative learning strategies in critical reading of English texts through Team Game Tournament (TGT) and Jenga. The method used is literature study by examining various sources from journal articles in various databases, proceedings, and official websites on critical reading, cooperative learning, TGT, and Jenga games. The selected data is then reduced, classified, analyzed, and concluded. The results of literature search show that in critical reading students not only understand the content of the text but also analyze and evaluate the text they read. In this case, cooperative learning facilitates students to critically exchange ideas about the insights, ideas, and points of view they get from the text. TGT, as a form of cooperative technique, has advantages of making students work together to try to improve critical reading scores quickly and accurately in groups. In practice, Jenga which is believed to have the superiority of cooperative, communicative, and effective aspects can be used by modifying and adding questions related to critical reading so that students try to understand and analyze the text accurately. Seeing the advantages of TGT as a cooperative learning strategy and the benefits of the Jenga in critical reading, the integration between the two can facilitate three important aspects, namely critical, fast and accurate so that it has the potential to develop students' critical reading skill in reading English text.Keywords: critical reading, cooperative learning, team game tournament (TGT), jenga

This study was conducted to determine whether or not the jigsaw approach as a cooperative learning strategy can significantly improve the problem solving skills in physics of the First Year Pharmacy students of the University of the Immaculate Conception for School Year 2011-2012. The researchers used the quasi-experimental design and purposively chose one class with forty students to compose the experimental group and another class of the same size to form the control group. The students from the experimental group were supervised through the jigsaw approach for three weeks as they studied Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion. The test scores from the 50-multiple choice-item Physics Questionnaire (α = 0.90) were the data used in the study. Frequency count, percentage, mean, standard deviation, and t-test were the statistical tools employed in the analyses of the data. Findings of the study revealed that the problem solving skills in physics of the Pharmacy students were significantly improved by the jigsaw approach. The researchers also employed a focus group discussion for the triangulation of the method which validated that students who were subjected to jigsaw approach became more proficient, responsible, facilitative, and approachable as learners. The students felt that they needed to study not only for themselves but also for their group mates.
