Integrating Cooperative Learning into Organizational Behavior Lessons

Abstract

This study sought to investigate student diversities in terms of learning styles and academic competence, and the extent to which
students change as regards participation, interaction and achievement through Cooperative Learning activities embracing their diversities.
77 first-year students from the two Organizational Behavior (OB) classes, one treated as the experimental group (EG) and the other as
the control group (CG), at the School of Business Administration of the International University (IU), a member university of Vietnam
National University of Ho Chi Minh City (VNU-HCMC) were invited to participate in the study. The findings substantiated that
Vietnamese learners are open to change and teachers should create effective activities for learners to immerse themselves in talking
cooperatively instead of talking individualistically in the classrooms.
