Effect of the Jigsaw-Based Cooperative Learning Method on Student Performance in the General Certificate of Education Advanced-Level Psychology: An Exploratory Brunei Case Study

Abstract

<p class="apa">The mixed-methods study investigated the effect of the jigsaw cooperative learning method on student performance in psychology and their views towards it. Experimental data were obtained via pre-and-post tests and an open-ended questionnaire from 16 conveniently selected students at one Sixth Form College in Brunei. Moreover, the participants reported that they enjoyed using the Jigsaw method and performed significantly better after the intervention. A large-scale research involving a bigger sample and more schools is recommended to confirm findings from the present study.</p>
