Abstract
This study investigated the effects of cooperative group composition based on student ability and learning acountability on achievement during computer-based instruction. A total of 94 Form Two female students from an urban school were chosen as high ability and low ability students on the basis of their Form One final examination· and UPSR ·mathematics results. These students were then randomly assigned to heterogeneous or homogeneous dyads. Dyads were designated as having either group or individual accountability for mastery of lesson content. The dyads were given a session on cooperative training to facilitate intragroup cooperation and interaction. Cooperative dyads completed lessons and activities on translation, reflection and rotation as stated in the transformation geometry syllabus for Form Two KBSM mathematics. Quizes were given at the end of each subtopic to be answered individually by the individual accountability dyads and in a cooperative manner by the group accontability dyads. After completing the lessons, students completed a posttest. There was no significant difference in the achievement of students for heterogeneous and homogeneous groups. Low-ability students have better achievement in heterogeneous then in homogeneous XV ·~ .. r .i -_,:- ' :. groups. There was no significant difference in the achievement of high-ability students in both the heterogenous and homogeneous groups. However the mean scores of highability students in homogeneous groups were slightly better than those in the heterogeneous groups. There was no significance difference in acievement between students in the individual accountability and group accountability cooperative groups.
