Cooperative learning fosters students engagement in the learning process

الملخص EN

Student engagement in the learning process, or engaged learning time, is a key behavior that refers to the amount of time students devote to learning in a classroom.

Even though a teacher may be task oriented, providing maximum content coverage, the students may be disengaged.

This means they are not actively thinking about, working with, or using what is being presented.

Such disengagements prevent learning in the classroom.

One way of engaging the students to the learning process is cooperative learning that motivates all the learners to participate to the courses actively.

This study examines how cooperative learning engages and motivates the diverse students in reading classes of English Preparatory School of Ishik University to the learning environment.

It can be concluded that students’ participation in the learning process positively correlates with the lesson delivery that arouse their motivation and attraction.
