(PEER REVIEW)THE STUDENTS TEAMS-ACHIEVEMENT DIVISIONS: ENHANCING VISUAL AND AUDITORY EFL LEARNERS’ WRITING SKILLS

This experimental study discusses the most effectiveness of learning English writing using the Student Teams-Achievement Divisions (STAD) and Lecture-Based Learning method. Two methods of learning are applied in two classes of second-year students and they are given writing test over one semester. The first class is tutored by the Student Teams-Achievement Divisions and the second class by the lecture-based learning. A great number of eighty students are classified into visual and auditory learning styles based on the questionnaires to be filled in. The results in the statistical analysis provide important insights into the learning achievement of both visual and auditory learners which are modeled by the Student Teams-Achievement Divisions. Using STAD method, they have accomplished considerably higher scores on academic writing achievement than the students who are treated by lecture-based teaching. So it brings the positive effect and association with the students’ learning styles.
