Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the use of cooperative learning method, Student Teams-Achievement Divisions-DAL (STAD), as compared to traditional learning methods in landscape painting among form four Muar High School students. A total of 35 students from two classes of Grade 4 were involved in the study. 15 students of 4 Jauhari were assigned as the control group while 15 students from 4 Smart became the experimental group. The experimental group was treated with STAD model approach while the control group was not given any treatment but to follow the process of teaching as usual. (This quasi-experimental study was used to evaluate the effectiveness of cooperative learning method (STAD) than traditional methods. Student achievement was measured based on the pre-test and post-test). The results obtained from this study indicated that the STAD cooperative method was more effective than the traditional methods of landscape painting coloring skills. Through this study, the comparison clearly showed that there was an improvement in the coloring method in painting landscapes after undergoing the cooperative learning method (STAD) as compared to students following traditional methods. From the findings of this study, I would recommend STAD cooperative learning as one of the appropriate methods and practices in painting learning for Visual Arts Education in schools.
