Abstract
This thesis reports a contrastive study of Cooperative Learning (CL) in Foreign Language Learning Environment. Firstly, the author conducts different teaching methods to Natural Group and Experimental Group respectively. After a period of teaching, a questionnaire is presented to these two groups. Then a comparison between these two results generalized from the questionnaire is made. Secondly, the author designs a testing on the study circumstance between natural group and experimental group. The purpose is to attest the better effect achieved by CL in English Classroom Teaching. It does reveal that 80.71% Second Language Learners (SLL) think the normal atmosphere in CL classroom is more relaxing, enjoyable and beneficial. Simultaneously, learners in cooperative group tend to be more confident and autonomous than those in natural group. Besides, these SLL who have received CL instruction can perform better than those who have not received CL instruction in their academic achievements.

摘 要
本文記述了在外語課堂學習中合作學習的對比性研究。首先，作者對自然組和實驗組這兩個小組實施了不同的教學方法，透過1段時間的教學之後，作者在傳統組和試驗組做了1個問卷調查，然後，將兩者得出的結果作比較。第2，問卷調查後對於這兩個小組的學習情況進行了測試，目的是爲了測試合作學習對試驗組在外語學習環境下的效果。從問卷調查的結果來看，顯示錶明有80.71%的`2語學習者認爲合作課堂的正常氣氛視爲輕鬆和愉悅的，並從中獲益頗多。與此同時，在合作學習中的學習者比自然小組的更有興趣，更自信，更自覺。同時，接受了合作學習指導的2語學習者在學習成績上比那些沒有接受指導的學習者有更大進步。
