Abstract
There is a continuing interest in the effective use of various instructional strategies, such as computers and cooperative learning
experiences, for improving student achievement in mathematics. Because results from recent international assessments have
indicated that students in Japan tend to score above international averages on mathematics achievement tests, there is considerable
interest in the relationship between classroom practices and mathematics performance in Japan. The purposes of this study were to:
(a) examine how cooperative learning groups were used in a mathematics lesson in Japan, and (b) to examine how computers were
integrated into the lesson. One lesson from the Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) Videotape Classroom
Study was selected because of the manner that computers were integrated into the overall mathematics lesson. Analyses were made
of the classroom context and instructional activities that were used in the lesson. It was found that the application of both strategies
was consistent with recommendations from previous research on the effective use of cooperative learning groups and computer-
based instruction. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
