The purpose of this study is to introduce MPA (Mobile Pedagogical Agent) Into virtual cooperative learning that can support student centred group learning for a practical course like 3D Animation. The study involved 30 students from Cosmopoint, Melaka. They were divided into two groups; one group with MPA and the other group without MPA. To enhance the learning process among the students, this project is built with cooperative learning framework. The students used the MPA during cooperative work and report their experiences through survey at the end of the study. Results of this study provide a useful knowledge in cooperative learning using MPA It also contributes a new framework for implementing virtual cooperative learning.
