Abstract

This study examined the effectiveness of implementing cooperative learning strategies in teaching Mathematics to the grade six students. Quantitative data was gathered through pretest and posttest, and qualitative data was gathered through open-ended interviews. The quantitative data was then analyzed using paired sample t-test and the qualitative data was analyzed using thematic analysis. The data analysis showed a significant improvement in students’ post-test scores (M=14.5) compared to the pre-test scores (M=7.1). Similarly, analysis of open-ended interview data revealed that the students possess positive mindset towards the use of cooperative learning strategies in learning mathematics. The students preferred cooperative teaching learning strategies over the traditional teaching methods. Therefore, the study recommends all Mathematics teachers to use cooperative teaching learning approaches to enhance students’ performance.
