Background/Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of cooperative learning methods on comprehensive thinking ability, interpersonal relationship and communication competence in communication related courses offered to engineering students. Methods/Statistical analysis: This study includes thirty engineering students who were taking a "writing" class, which is a compulsory liberal arts course. The students were divided into six small groups and two Jigsaw classes were conducted during the second half of the semester, from after the midterm exam to before the final exam. Analysis was performed on responses from 28 participants, excluding insincere responses from two participants. Data was analysed using independent t-test. Findings: The effects of cooperative learning can be summarized as follows. First, students' learning motivation was naturally induced by their increased interest and satisfaction. This teaching method induced cooperation through interdependence, thus creating close peer relationships, and encouraged all members to actively participate in the process of solving the task with responsibility. Second, as members acquire the knowledge necessary to solve problems through interactions with other members, they become more focused on class, resulting in increased satisfaction. Ultimately, this student-centered learning attitude improved learning achievement. Third, students developed confidence in verbal expression and presentation skills by engaging in presentation and discussion. Fourth, students were able to broaden their thinking as they shared a variety of information with many people, and thus they acquired the ability to write more substantially and illustratively without difficulty. Improvements/Applications: The significance of the present study lies in identifying significant effects of cooperative learning on students' learning attitude and academic achievement in relation to communication area subjects. © 2019; Primrose Hall Publishing Group.
