  7. Literature Review • Morgan (2012) & Wichadee (n.d.) have same framework : 5 basic elements of cooperative learning in their study • Marcus (2009) focuses on the grouping of the students in having cooperative learning activities in the classroom. • heterogeneous groupings have some significant failings : stronger students become frustrated with weaker students • Most of the studies are on mix ability students  same issue of balancing good and weak students

  10. Sampling • Semester 2 students of Diploma in Uitm Pahang(Bel260) • Reading class • 30 students from 1 particular class – mix ability • Low ability students will be spotted by looking at previous grade

  11. Research Instrument • 2 instruments are used : Observation & Interviews • Checklist for observations will be constructed based on the 5 elements of Cooperative learning • Interview is semi-constructed also based on the 5 elements

  12. Data collection • Observations are for the whole class ( during activities) • After analyze the video interviews will be held • Interviews are only for particular low ability students – randomly chosen
