| Summary: | The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of cooperative learning on academic achievement motivation and anxiety. The design of research was experimental design with pre-test and post-test with control group. From district 5, by cluster sampling, two sixth grade from two different girl’s schools were selected as the experimental group (N = 40) and the control group (N = 40). In pre-test both groups completed the Spence Children's Anxiety Scale (2003) and Hermans Academic Achievement Questioner (1970). Then, in the experimental group, all courses were provided with cooperative learning method for two months. While control group was taught in the traditional way. After two months both groups completed the Spence Children's Anxiety Scale (2003) and Hermans Academic Achievement Questioner (1970). By using analysis of covariance, the results showed that cooperative learning reduced students’ anxiety and increased academic achievement motivation (p<0/001). The implication for using collaborative learning by teachers in the classrooms to reduce anxiety and increase academic achievement motivation was also discussed. |
