Abstract

One of the pre-requisites for IISMAVO 2022 (Indonesian International Student Mobility Awards for Vocational Students) mobility grants for Indonesia Vocational Higher Education (VHE) students is having minimum TOEIC scores of 560 or equivalent. However, only a small number of State Polytechnic of Bengkalis students had the required TOEIC score and were qualified to enroll in the program. Moreover, students in language department, English study programs, for example, still struggle to achieve the minimum score required by the program. The majority of students' levels of English proficiency were at elementary and lower intermediate. The research tried to improve students’ TOEIC score through cooperative learning in “Sekolah TOEIC” program. The classroom action research was conducted in two cycles treatment. The results found that students’ TOEIC scores increased significantly after the treatment. The pretest average score was 442, then it increased to be 562,6 in the cycle 1 and slightly decline 560,4 in cycle 2 and became 583,4 in the post test at the end of the program. It means that using Cooperative Learning in “Sekolah TOEIC” program could improve the students’ TOEIC score.
