The research conducted was quasi-experimental in nature. It was undertaken in order to determine the effects of cooperative learning strategy in enhancing the vocabulary and reading comprehension skills among the Grade Six pupils of MSU-ILS, A.Y. 2011-2012. Specifically, it sought to find out  the profile of the respondents in terms of age, gender, parents’ occupation, and parents’ monthly income; the significant difference between the pretest and the posttest mean scores of the control   group in vocabulary and reading comprehension skills; the significant difference between the pretest and the posttest mean scores of the experimental group in vocabulary and reading comprehension skills; and the significant difference between the mean gain scores of the respondents of both groups in vocabulary and reading comprehension skills. This research involved seventy-five (75) Grade Six pupils of Mindanao State University-Integrated Laboratory School (MSU-ILS). One group consisting of 37 pupils was identified as the experimental group.  This study was analyzed by the SPSS (Statistical Program for Social Sciences) The data were treated using one-way ANOVA (Analysis of Variance).  The study revealed the following findings: 1) majority of the respondents were aged 13 years old; 2) majority of the respondents are females and few of them are males for both the experimental and the control groups. 3) majority of the parents of the respondents were employees or faculty members; and 4) most of the parents of the respondents were receiving an average level of income (10001-20000). Moreover, the study has a significant difference between the pretest and the posttest mean scores of the experimental group in vocabulary and reading comprehension skills. Statistically, there is also a significant difference between the pretest and posttest mean scores of the control group in vocabulary and reading comprehension skills. Finally, the two groups have the same variance. It means that on the average, the mean gain scores of pupils in both the control and experimental groups are the same. Based on the findings, cooperative learning strategy is effective in teaching vocabulary and reading comprehension skills to the learners, traditional learning strategy is also effective in teaching vocabulary and reading comprehension skills to the learners or effective learning, whichever teaching strategy is used by the teacher the learners need to be participative in high order thinking exercises, such as analysis, synthesis, and evaluation and the cooperative learning strategy and traditional strategy are both effective. There is no single “best” learning strategy to teach vocabulary and comprehension skills to learners and whatever learning strategy is used in the classroom, there is a need to take into account the learners’ current knowledge so that they can work within their zone of proximal development and thus progress will be implied in this study.

In this quasi-experimental study, quantitative findings were examined in terms of how grouping students based on their dominant type of Multiple intelligence and providing different Multiple Intelligence activities that correspond to their intelligence type effect the development of their reading skills. A control group and an experimental group were designed to compare the effectiveness of the Multiple Intelligence teaching activities and tasks on the development of reading skills. A questionnaire was administrated to the 95 undergraduate EFL junior students to identify their dominant type of intelligence at a private university in Iraq. Based on their dominant type of intelligence, different learning centers were established with different activities for each one. After a 16-week experiment period the effects of Multiple Intelligence teaching activities were measured by using pretest, progress tests, achievement exams and a posttest. The results of this study indicated that the experimental group has significantly developed their reading comprehension skills in terms of understanding and visualizing the meaning in the mind. In addition, there were considerable association between Multiple Intelligence teaching activities and students’ motivation to the classes that reinforces classroom management as well.

Based on a mixed method research design, this study aims to investigate the effectiveness of applying scaffolding strategies in enhancing reading comprehension skills of female students at King Abdulaziz University in the city of Jeddah in Saudi Arabia. The participants of the study were thirty-three female students at the preparatory year program (PYP) who were registered at the proficiency level 104 (B1/Threshold level on the Common European Framework of reference for language; CEFR). They were divided into two groups: Seventeen students in the control group and sixteen students in the experimental group. Both groups were exposed to the same reading lessons but with the experimental group exposed to scaffolding strategies. Prior to the treatment, a pretest was administered to both groups. Once the treatment was accomplished, a posttest was administered to investigate the effect of applying scaffolding strategies on developing reading comprehension skills. Furthermore, qualitative data was collected via open-ended questionnaire. The results of the study indicated that there was a statistically significant difference between the pretest and posttest of the experimental group in favor of the posttest. Furthermore, students showed a positive attitude to the scaffolding technique as a motivation factor to their learning. Conclusions and recommendations for further research are given at the end of this study.

The current study's objective examines the effectiveness of using a Think-Aloud strategy in improving Saudi EFL learners' reading comprehension and attitudes towards learning. A quantitative study with a quasi-experimental design was implemented through applying two different instruments: Reading Comprehension Skills Test and Attitude Scale towards learning EFL. The study adopts a pre-post control group design where forty students were randomly assigned to either a control or an experimental group. Students of the experimental group were instructed by using metacognitive Think-Aloud strategy, whereas, the control group received traditional treatment such as skimming and scanning techniques. The findings of the study showed that the attitudes and reading comprehension skills of the experimental group improved significantly as opposed to the control group. The study gives more insight into the importance of applying a Think-Aloud strategy in teaching reading comprehension inside EFL educational context. The study also suggests recommendations for EFL teachers to increase the efficiency of applying this strategy through their teaching procedures.
