The effects of cooperative learning and traditional learning on the effectiveness and constraining factors of physical fitness teaching under various teaching conditions were studied. Sixty female students in Grades 7–8 were sampled to evaluate their learning of health and physical education (PE) according to the curriculum for Grades 1–9 in Taiwan. The data were quantitatively and qualitatively collected and analyzed. The overall physical fitness of the cooperative learning group exhibited substantial progress between the pretest and posttest, in which the differences in the sit-and-reach and bent-knee sit-up exercises achieved statistical significance. The performance of the cooperative learning group in the bent-knee sit-up and 800 m running exercises far exceeded that of the traditional learning group. Our qualitative data indicated that the number of people grouped before a cooperative learning session, effective administrative support, comprehensive teaching preparation, media reinforcement, constant feedback and introspection regarding cooperative learning strategies, and heterogeneous grouping are constraining factors for teaching PE by using cooperative learning strategies. Cooperative learning is considered an effective route for attaining physical fitness among students. PE teachers should consider providing extrinsic motivation for developing learning effectiveness.

Cooperative Learning Strategies (CLS) for Students Focused Teaching (SFT), known as 'students-centered learning' (SCL), is the acknowledged pedagogical strategy. This research article is based on an experiment in an EFL class and analyses various fundamental aspects of CLS concentrating on the classroom barriers, diagnosis of students' linguistic problems and the results of the adopted strategies. During eight weeks of teaching instructions, three tests of integrated Reading and Writing skills were conducted in Level-3/4 classes in Preparatory Years Program with intervals. The students were given treatment through two different methodologies viz., Cooperative Learning Strategy and Traditional Learning Strategy (TLS) in two different groups. It was hypothesized that CLS would motivate them to participate in the classroom activities. Major research findings are that to achieve teaching objectives successfully, motivated and trained teachers are required to handle the students who do not cooperate in the CLS implementation process. The study also found out other pedagogical problems in the process of implementation by comparing CLS and TLS. The comparative analysis of the experimental and the controlled groups revealed that there was no significant impact of CLS on adult EFL learners. The study discusses the factors for the lack of CLS impact on the EFL learners and gives recommendations.

The rapid development of information has the potential to spread negative content such as hoax news, hate speech, or issues of radicalism and intolerance. In this case, critical reading skills are needed. By reading critically, readers can become more objective, able to sort and not easily swayed. However, the learning implementation of critical reading is not easy, especially coupled with the students' low reading interest and ability, especially towards English reading texts. This narrative review aims to examine cooperative learning strategies in critical reading of English texts through Team Game Tournament (TGT) and Jenga. The method used is literature study by examining various sources from journal articles in various databases, proceedings, and official websites on critical reading, cooperative learning, TGT, and Jenga games. The selected data is then reduced, classified, analyzed, and concluded. The results of literature search show that in critical reading students not only understand the content of the text but also analyze and evaluate the text they read. In this case, cooperative learning facilitates students to critically exchange ideas about the insights, ideas, and points of view they get from the text. TGT, as a form of cooperative technique, has advantages of making students work together to try to improve critical reading scores quickly and accurately in groups. In practice, Jenga which is believed to have the superiority of cooperative, communicative, and effective aspects can be used by modifying and adding questions related to critical reading so that students try to understand and analyze the text accurately. Seeing the advantages of TGT as a cooperative learning strategy and the benefits of the Jenga in critical reading, the integration between the two can facilitate three important aspects, namely critical, fast and accurate so that it has the potential to develop students' critical reading skill in reading English text.Keywords: critical reading, cooperative learning, team game tournament (TGT), jenga

This study aimed to investigate what language learning strategies were frequently used by English as a foreign language undergraduates at a public university in Bangkok, Thailand and the significant differences in the use of language learning strategies based on individual differences, including gender and self-rated English proficiency. The research was conducted with 392 Thai undergraduates through administering a quantitative method. Instruments for the study included a demographic questionnaire and Oxford’s Strategy Inventory for Language Learning. The findings revealed that research participants reported a low-to-medium use of language learning strategy. The strategies most used by learners were compensation strategies while the least were cognitive strategies. Regarding gender differences, female participants used the all six strategy categories more than did the male counterparts. The results also demonstrated that participants with different English proficiency employed learning strategies at different levels with a statistical significance at .05 in almost six strategies, except affective strategies. Research participants who were good at English most used metacognitive while social strategies were most used by participants with less English proficiency.

This study is intended to examine efforts to improve student learning outcomes using the STAD type cooperative strategy given the low absorption of students in learning as well as one method for teachers to improve student learning outcomes in schools. Cooperative learning strategies are one way to strive for student activities in learning so that they are involved cognitively and psychomotor in them. But the extent to which this cooperative learning strategy contributes to student learning success compared to the expository strategy needs to be empirically proven. The research method that will be used is Classroom Action Research (CAR)which aims to improve the learning process. The results of this study indicate that learning using cooperative strategies gradually increases from cycle I, II and III with the final percentage score of 88.39. While the implementation of PAI learning using cooperative strategy media also went well, in this case there was an increase in teacher activity during the learning process from cycle I to cycle II, and cycle III. The acquisition of PAI learning achievement increases along with the improvement of learning planning, implementation of learning, and the implementation of evaluation of learning using cooperative strategies.
