The Development of Online Lessons Using Cooperative Learning with Think-Pair- Share Techniques in Technology (Computing Science) Subjects for Grade 8 Students

Abstract

The purposes of this research as follows: 1) To develop the online lessons using cooperative learning with think-pair-share techniques in Computing Science subjects for Grade 8 students, 2) to evaluate the quality of the online lessons using cooperative learning with think-pair-share techniques in Computing Science subjects for grade 8 students, 3) to determine the efficiency of the online lessons using cooperative learning with think-pair-share techniques in Computing Science subjects for Grade 8 students, 4) to compare the learning achievement of the students before and after learning with the online lessons using cooperative learning with think-pair-share techniques in Computing Science subjects for Grade 8 students, and 5) to determine the satisfaction of the students towards the online lessons using cooperative learning with thinkpair- share techniques in Computing Science subjects for Grade 8 students. The sample group used in this research were the 40 students of grade 8 students at Rachineeburana School using purposive sampling technique. The instruments used in this research were the online lessons in Computing Science subjects, the assessment form of the content, the assessment form of the techniques and methodology, the learning achievement test, and the assessment form of the students’ satisfaction. The data were analyzed using mean, standard deviation, and dependent t–test. The research findings showed that: 1) The online lessons using cooperative learning with think-pairshare techniques in Computing Science subjects included 3 units; communication technology, computational concepts, and responsible use of information technology, 2) the opinions of the content experts and the technique and methodology experts on the online lessons using cooperative learning with think-pair-share techniques in Computing Science subjects stated that the appropriateness was at the highest level, 3) the efficiency of the online lessons using cooperative learning with think-pair-share techniques in Computing Science subjects was at the level of 94.75/83.42 which was higher than the criteria of 80/80, 4) the students learning with the online lessons using cooperative learning with think-pair-share techniques in Computing Science subjects had the post-test scores which was statistically significantly higher than the pre-test scores at the level of .05, and 5) the students' satisfaction towards the online lessons using cooperative learning with think-pair-share techniques in Computing Science subjects was at the highest level.
