Research Abstract |
This study investigated the effects of cooperative learning on English speaking and writing tasks done by non-English Japanese university majors in terms of their cooperative recognition, English abilities, and attitude and motivation for learning English. The results revealed that Japanese university students in both cooperative and traditional learning groups displayed higher motivation for learning English. In addition, their recognition of “usefulness of cooperation” in the Cooperation Scale significantly increased, but those of the “individual orientation” and “inequity” did not change. However, the students who did the speaking task cultivated better human relation and obtained a higher quality of school life than those who carried out the writing task in the cooperative learning groups.
