| Popis: | This article is based on a quasi experimental research, comparing the effects of the storytelling method and the conventional method on the interest, motivation and achievement of Year Five Chineese Primary School pupils in Malaysia. The objective of the study was to investigate whether the use of the storytelling method helped to enhance the interest, motivation and achievement of pupils in Moral Education. The sample of the study consisted of 110 Year Five pupils from two schools. The sample was divided into two groups, the Experimental Group and the Control Group. The Experimental group was taught using the story telling method and the Control group was taught using the conventional method. The study was conducted over a period of eight weeks. A set of questionnaires was used to gauge the pupils’ interest and motivation before and after the experiment. The ANCOVA test was used to analyse the data obtained from the post test and the questionaire. The findings of this research indicate that the utilization of the storytelling method significantly enhanced the interest, motivation and achievement of the pupils in the Experimental Group in Moral Education compared with the pupils in the Control Group who were taught using the conventional method. |
