Class system using the cooperative learning technique to improve speaking skill

Abstract

This research aims to improve the speaking skills of English language learners using a class system, which is oriented to implement cooperative learning. It is defended in the quantitative paradigm with non-experimental design, using theoretical methods such as hypothetical deductive, synthetic analytical and systemic. And empirical methods such as non-participant observation and pedagogical testing. This study focuses on cooperative learning, which through students collaborating in organised groups, fosters positive interactions and joint construction of knowledge. It is essential that teachers structure their classes well in order to avoid discrimination and promote cooperation. Therefore, the proposal is defined and the class system is applied to test the effectiveness of cooperative learning in improving students’ speaking skills.
