掌握写作技巧是至关重要的，不仅对学生，而且对每个人都是如此。近年来，随着世界范围内的教育学趋势，合作学习的使用变得越来越流行。它已经从以教师为中心转变为以学生为中心。在写作教学中认可的方法之一就是合作学习的应用。本研究调查了合作学习对提高吉隆坡一所中学九年级学生写作能力的效果。本研究采用准实验设计，以叙事性散文的前测和后测为工具。通过描述性统计和推论统计对数据进行了进一步分析。学生的写作从词汇、组织、语法准确性和机械性这五个方面进行了评分。研究结果表明，学生在课堂上使用合作学习后，写作成绩从测试前到测试后均有不同程度的提高。结果表明，合作学习对提高该校学生的写作水平有积极的作用，并在文章中进行了讨论。
The mastery of the writing skills is crucial, not only among the school children, but also to everyone. The use of Cooperative Learning (hereafter, CL) has become increasingly popular in recent years as pedagogy trends worldwide. It has shifted from teacher-centred to learner-centred methods. Among the methods endorsed in teaching writing is the application of CL. This research investigated the effects of CL to improve the writing skill of ninth grade students in a middle school in Kuala Lumpur. This research used the quasi experimental design, with pre-test and posttest of the narrative essays as the instruments. The data were further analysed by employing descriptive and inferential statistics. The students’ writing were scored on the five writing components, they are vocabulary, organization, grammatical accuracy and mechanics. The results showed that the students had increased in their writing scores from the pre-test to the post test after the application of CL in the class. Subsequently, the results indicate positive effects of CL in improving the writing skill of students at the school, and they are also discussed in the paper.
