Topic: The impact of cooperative learning on academic achievement and social skills of primary school students.

Synopsis:

Introduction: Cooperative learning is an instructional method that emphasizes group work and encourages students to work together to achieve a common goal. This method has been shown to have a positive impact on academic achievement and social skills in students. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of cooperative learning on the academic achievement and social skills of primary school students.

Methodology: This study will be conducted using a pretest-posttest control group design. The sample will consist of 60 primary school students, aged between 8 and 11 years, who will be randomly assigned to either the experimental or control group. The experimental group will receive instruction using the cooperative learning method, while the control group will receive traditional instruction. The study will be conducted over a period of 12 weeks.

Data Collection: The academic achievement of the students will be measured using a standardized test, while their social skills will be measured using a questionnaire designed for this study. Both measures will be administered before and after the intervention. The data collected will be analyzed using descriptive statistics and inferential statistics.

Tools: The following tools will be used in this study:
