dc.description.abstract	The purpose of this action research study was to analyze and explore the impact cooperative learning groups would have on students’ communication skills and confidence with speaking in front of others in an 8th-grade math classroom. For three weeks, students worked in cooperative learning groups completing various tasks that required communication amongst group members. During these activities, the teacher collected data and supported the cooperative learning groups by reminding them of group expectations as well as prompting them with questions when they did not know what to say or do. At the end of the intervention, the data revealed that cooperative learning groups had worked effectively to improve students’ communication skills as well as their confidence with speaking in front of others in an 8th-grade math classroom.	en_US
