The current study aims at investigating the effect of cooperative learning (Jigsaw) on motivation of female students. Department of kindergarten to learn Human biology. This is of be dove through verification of the hypothesis that there is no significant difference at the 0.05 level between the motivation of experiment of group subjects who study according to (Jigsaw) cooperative learning and that of the control group subjects who study traditionally.
The study is limited to female students al the first year-Department of kindergarten college of Education for women university of Baghdad during the academic year 2007-2008.
An experiment of design of partial control and post-test for two groups is used. The experiment groups consists of 38 students and the control group consists of 37. Both groups are taught by the researcher (cell, tissues, Nutrition and digestion, circulation Hormones, Reproduction).
To measure students motivation, a scale is prepared according to scientific procedures.
Validity and reliability are ensured. The scale consists of 40 items. Pearson correlation coefficient and test for two independent sampler are used as statistical procedures.
The results of the study show that motivation of the experiment group students outweighs that of the control group ones to learn biology. Accordingly the null hypothesis is rejected.
Finally, a number of recommend at ions are presented in which the use of jigsaw model of cooperative learning is recommender to be used by university instructors.
A number of injgestions are at so giver one of which is making a comparison between jigsaw model and other ones of cooperative learning in promoting students motivation.

This paper studies the thermal energy storage property for polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) / paraffin wax (WPw) blends. To enhance paraffin wax thermal conductivity, PVOH as a material which high conductivity was employed. A fixed weight of Paraffin wax was dispersed with PVOH heterogeneously at different additive weights ratios of PVOH/Pw (50/50, 67/33, 75/25, and 80/20) wt. ratio respectively. The composite material was prepared using wetted pressing method.
