PROMOTING FIVE KEY COMPONENTS OF SUCCESSFUL COOPERATIVE LEARNING AMONG ENGLISH DEPARTMENT STUDENTS AT SKIP KRISTEN WAMENA

Abstract

There are many ways to help students learn, and one approach is to group them into teams, which is known as cooperative learning. This method ensures that every student in the group can learn, contribute, and receive help academically. To determine whether English students at STKIP Kristen Wamena comprehend and utilize cooperative learning, this research will use qualitative methods, such as interviewing students about their cooperative learning experiences. The goal is to identify any challenges they face and how teachers can effectively implement the five cooperative learning components in their teaching. The responses from the students will serve as a benchmark and guide for teachers to implement cooperative learning successfully in the classroom.
