Twenty-five students majoring in English Communication at a junior college participated in this study. The participants completed a short questionnaire at the end of each lesson which sought insight into their satisfaction with cooperative learning and their reflective comments about the lesson. While it is unclear whether cooperative learning has improved their proficiency and comprehension of English, the findings from the questionnaire suggest that cooperative learning heightened the participants motivation and led to a more enjoyable and profitable learning experience.}, pages = {15--20}, title = {Cooperative Learning in the EFL Reading Classroom in Tertiary Education: A Way to Improve the Classroom Climate throughthe Communicative Use of a Questionnaire}, volume = {13}, year = {2014} }
