Background and aim: The aim of the current research is to investigate the effect of cooperative learning on academic involvement and communication with school in the experimental science course of sixth grade students in Arak city.
Research Methods: The current research method is quasi-experimental and its design is of pre-test-post-test type with a control group. The study population included all the sixth grade students of the Endurance School in Arak city, and the study sample was 30 students who were studied in two groups (15 people in the control group; 15 people in the experimental group). In order to collect the data of the current research, Rio's academic engagement questionnaire (2013) and Panaghi et al.'s school relationship questionnaire (2019) were used.
Results: The findings of the research indicated that teaching in a cooperative manner is effective on academic involvement and communication with the school in the experimental science course of the sixth grade students of Arak city. This means that the use of cooperative education can lead to an increase in students' academic engagement and also improve their relationship with the school.
Discussion: By orienting classrooms toward collaborative learning, we can strengthen the connection with the school and academic engagement among students, thereby improving the quality of learning.
