The purpose of this study were to develop cooperative learning lesson plan for middle school home economics class and to identify the effect of cooperative learning on students self-esteem. The content of lesson was chosen from the food and nutrition section of home economics textbooks for middle school. The main structure of the lesson plan stems from 『Lesson Plan Guide of Structuring Cooperative Learning：Lesson Plan for Teachers』 by D. Johnson. R. Johnson and E. Holubec. Various kinds of references, including media, reading materials, cooperative group activity reports and cooperative group activity checking lists were newly developed according to the content of lesson. Eight hour lesson plans were developed and applied to 2nd grade middle school students and pre-test and post-test were taken to test the effect of Johnson s cooperative learning method on students self-esteem. Students at a Middle School located in Seoul were divided into two groups, the three classes as experimental group and the other three classes as control group. The data were analyzed by ANCOVA using SPSS/WIN program. As a result, the hypothesis that the degree of self-esteem of the experimental group is higher than that of control group was adopted (p<.OO1). Among the sub-factors of self-esteem, the global self-esteem and the social-peer self-esteem scores of the experimental group were higher than that of the control group(p<.OO1 each), but the school-academic self-esteem score was not different (p>.05) According to the post-experiment free-style report, student as a dynamic subject could get initiatives and interests in home economics class more effectively by cooperative learning. Therefore, it could be said that cooperative learning has positive effect on the promotion of students self-esteem, and is considered to be a good teaching method of home economics subject.
