Both quantitative and qualitative methods were enhanced to collect data in the forms of a quasi-experimental design. Two involved classes including 71 tenth graders (n=71) at a senior high school in Mekong Delta were randomly assigned as the experimental group and the control group. While writing tests are administered to measure paragraph writing performance of the participants before and after the intervention, questionnaires and interviews are executed to obtain quantitative data of their attitudes towards the Jigsaw technique.
