What I would like to know is, does cooperative learning strategy bring about positive attitude
towards mathematics hence improving learner’s performance on the subject. Am interested on
this, because pupils in a classroom situation react differently when asked to work in groups or
pairs. Some pupils show excitement and interest while others become frustrated. Then the
question is does this strategy develop a positive self-efficacy on the subject or not.
Data will be collected by using observation of classroom, learner interviews, questionnaires and
learner’s work (classwork, homework and tests).The population will be high school learners
from a grade 8 math class. Learners from the class will be selected by means of purposive
sampling to be observed, given questionnaire and interviewed.
