This concept paper aims to discuss the effectiveness of cooperative learning on low proficiency students in the classroom. Cooperative learning is a teaching strategy based on cooperation and mutual assistance in groups to achieve an academic goal. This concept paper exposes cooperative learning issues to provide a clear picture of the problems that students face in mastering their learning. The characteristics and principles of cooperative learning are discussed to assist teachers to implement cooperative learning in the classroom. In addition, past studies related to this approach are also discussed and the relationship between the cooperative learning approach and Vygotsky's theory of social constructivism is also explained. The implications of the implementation of cooperative learning approach on poor student achievement are examined and explained based on previous relevant studies. This concept paper is expected to inform teachers in improving their teaching methods in creating a meaningful learning environment and assist students in improving their achievement.
