Abstract

The aim of this research was to determine the effectiveness of project-based learning and student teams- achievement divisions (STAD) co-operative learning on Web programming competency. A quasi-experimental, non-equivalent control group design was adopted for the research. The data were collected using sampling techniques in the form of tests and documentation. A t-test was used to show the improvement of students' ability in project-based learning and STAD co-operative learning. The comparison of the average gain or improvement scores for students' knowledge and skills shows that project-based learning achieved better results than did the STAD co-operative learning in improving students' competency in Web programming. © 2017 WIETE.
