  • Effect of Jigsaw I Technique on Achievement in Written Expression Skill
    Kuram ve Uygulamada Eğitim Bilimleri • Educational Sciences: Theory & Practice - 11(2) • Spring • 911-917 ©2011 Eğitim Danışmanlığı ve Araştırmaları İletişim Hizmetleri Tic. Ltd. Şti. Effect of Jigsaw I Technique on Achievement in Written Expression Skill Sedat MADENa Cumhuriyet University Abstract This study aims to compare the effects of Jigsaw I technique from the cooperative learning methods and tradi- tional teaching method on academic achievement and retrieval of Turkish teacher candidates in the matter of written expression. The sample of the study consists of 70 students studying at the Department of Turkish te- aching in the academic year of 2009-2010. One of the classes was randomly specified as control group (N=34) to which traditional teaching method was applied while the other as test group to which the Jigsaw technique (N=36) was applied. The study was predicated on “Non-equal control group pattern”. Learning styles of the gro- ups were determined by the Kolb Learning Style Inventory (LSI). Data about their academic success were col- lected through Success Test for Written Expression (STWE) applied as pre-test and post-test and views of stu- dents about Jigsaw I technique were collected through a form questioning students’ views (SVF). Then, the re- sults obtained from them were analyzed. It was observed as a result of statistical analyses that there was not a significant variation in favor of the test group in terms of academic success and stability between the test group and the control group in teaching the written expression subject. It was also determined according to the results obtained from the study that the students stated positive views for the Jigsaw I technique.

  • Chapter I Introduction
    COOPERATIVE LEARNING METHODS FOR GROUP PIANO: THE DEVELOPMENT OF A TEACHING GUIDE A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE DOCTOR OF ARTS BY JUDIE N. MEULINK DISSERTATION ADVISORS: DR. JOHN W. SCHEIB & DR. LORI E. RHODEN BALL STATE UNIVERSITY MUNCIE, IN DECEMBER 2011 ii Abstract This inquiry explored cooperative learning theory and methodology in the context of teaching functional keyboard skills in undergraduate collegiate group piano classes. The purpose was to create a teaching guide to be used in the teaching and learning of harmonization, transposition, improvisation, sight-reading, accompanying, playing by ear, and technique. The guide was created using established cooperative learning methods and was intended to be used in conjunction with other resources common to collegiate group piano classes. The majority of cooperative learning material pertains to non-music subjects; of those resources that relate to music, there are almost no available published sources that incorporate cooperative learning into the group piano curriculum. Teachers of collegiate group piano classes may wish to use this guide to introduce cooperative learning methodology in their teaching situations. iii Acknowledgments The author would like to thank the members of her committee who proved to be invaluable sources of knowledge and encouragement throughout this project. Thank you, Dr. Scheib, for providing the big picture and also the detailed review necessary for a project such as this, even in the midst of your increasingly demanding schedule. Thank you, Dr. Gerrity, for stepping in at the ―last minute‖ as a replacement committee member and for adding additional guidance in the cohesiveness of the project.

    A RESOURCE GUIDE FOR BEGINNING COLLEGE INSTRUCTORS by Laura Shannon A project submitted to the Faculty of Education in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Education Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada April, 2017 © Copyright, 2017, Laura Shannon ii ABSTRACT The number of part-time instructors hired into the college sector is rapidly increasing (Landrum, 2009). In 2003, 43% of those teaching in the college sector were part-time employees (Landrum, 2009). In 2011, the number of part-time college instructors increased to 51% (Edmonds, 2015). Today, over half of the college student population are taught by part-time instructors (Basen, 2014). Colleges across Canada rely heavily upon part-time instructors to fulfill the responsibilities of teaching and guiding students toward success. However, the credentials needed to teach at most colleges in Ontario require a minimum of a graduate degree at the master’s level. Yet, unlike primary and secondary school teachers, there is no formal teacher training for higher education educators during their graduate studies education (Cahn, 2015). Consequently, beginning college instructors may not be fully prepared to enter into the college classroom without receiving prior foundational pedagogical content knowledge information. Given the increase in part-time college instructors being hired to teach at the college sector, it is essential that students attending postsecondary institutions across Canada receive optimal learning experiences taught by instructors who have developed a reputation of excellence in teaching. These optimal experiences will not only further the development of our future learners, but also benefit society at large. The evidence-based resource guide in this project has been created for beginning college instructors to use as a tool to help foster their readiness prior to entering into the college classroom.

Quasi experimental research design was employed for the study. The sample for study comprised one hundred and fifteen SS II Science students from three intact classes randomly selected from three public coeducation schools in Katsina North Senatorial District of Katsina State, Nigeria. Two instruments were used for data collection namely; Students’ Interest in Science and rating scale (SISRAS) and Science Students’ Achievement Test (SSAT). SISRAS contained 20 items designed to determine students’ interest in Science. The reliability of SISRAS was determined using Cronbach Alpha and the coefficient obtained was 0.77 while Kuder- Richardson formula 21 (K-R21) was used to determine the reliability of SSAT and the reliability coefficient was found to be 0.80 implying that the instruments were reliable enough for the study. Mean and standard deviation were used to answer the research questions while Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) was used to test the research hypotheses at 0.05 alpha level of significance.

  • A Jigsaw Cooperative Learning Trial on Optical Graduate Course
    Let us complete the puzzle together: A Jigsaw Cooperative Learning Trial on Optical Graduate Course Ya Zhou*, Yao Hu, Shanshan Wang, Yuejin Zhao, Liquan Dong, Yong Song Beijing Key Lab. for Precision Optoelectronic Measurement Instrument and Technology, School of Optics and Photonics, Beijing Institute of Technology, Beijing 100081, China ABSTRACT Traditional lectures do hardly satisfy or benefit all of graduate students because of their diversity background, which might lead to inactive in the class, especially when the courses are professionally concentrated. Jigsaw cooperative learning (JCL), a student-centered learning method which engages all students and is beneficial in facilitating relationship-building, might be an alternative solution. A trial was made in an optical course “Optical Interferometric Measurement (OIM)”. However, the first trial we made is hardly counted as success. After thorough analysis on all factors that might cause the frustration, a new course plan is formed detailed. In this paper, we would like share our trials made in the course, both the unsuccessful one and the one work in progress. Keywords: Jigsaw cooperative learning; Student-centered learning; Graduate course 1. INTRODUCTION The most challenging part of preparing courses for graduate students might be the diversity background of the students. After at least four years’ undergraduate study, the graduate students have already formed their own study or think mode which definitely differ in thousands of ways since they are from different universities

The study explored the socio-cultural background of Cebuano cooperation as reflected in the communal practices of the tagay, alayon, yayong, tambayayong, and unong (TAYTU); the process of localized cooperative learning strategies contextualized in the TAYTU; designing lesson exemplars in the TAYTU way. This qualitative study used a directive content analysis design using relevant research findings and initial codes that serve as bases of future projections, as a form of trend studies in CL strategies. The exploratory design was used to provide visualization of TAYTU exemplars. FGDs were conducted among the 60 research participants: alayon farmers (20), tambayayong fishermen (20) and male-drinkers (20), using enumeration sampling and inclusion criteria to establish the socio-cultural background of the study. The indigenous identities of the Cebuano cultural practices bridge a potential exploration of the localized and contextualized CL strategies in realizing the noble aim of malasakit in the Philippines’ AmBisyon Natin 2040. Catharsis in tagay; togetherness and unity of command in alayon; sensibility and sensitivity in yayong; sharing of extreme emotions in tambayayong; and intimacy and solidarity in unong featured a socio-cultural background necessitated in the crafting of the TAYTU Models of CL Teaching exemplars.
