This research adopts experiment research method with random samples from 144 students of squash elective course of Chun Chou Institute of Technology. The students are classified into "high ability", "high and low ability" and "low ability" levels by the pretest. By the results of the pretest, the students are pointed two sets (experiment set and control set) in random way. After the first week pretest, there are 16 weeks for the curriculum teaching. At the end of the course, all students individually completed a motivation questionnaire. The posttest starts on the 18th week. There are several results showed below. The technical ability of back-hand strike shows significantly progress for both sets. Shown in the posttest, the experiment set has the better than control set on the factors, such as " steps", " position" and "swing"...etc. therefore the experiment set approves much better than the control set on technical skills. Besides, the different teaching strategies combined with different levels interact well. By the simple main effect, the "high and low ability" level shows much better progress of learning technical skills than the other two levels ("high ability" and "low ability"). In the control set, the "high ability" level are considered has better progress of learning technical skills than the other two levels ("high and low ability" and "low ability"). In the meantime, under different teaching strategies, the experiment set with "high and low ability" level has significant achievement compared with the control set. However, "high ability" and "low ability" levels do not have the difference on the progress of learning technical skills. This research also performance in motivation, the mastery learning under the cooperation learning theory compared the single mastery learning theory is considered having more positive effect especially in "learning target", "intrinsic value", "self efficacy", "achievement motivation" and "expectancy for success". It is also showed there is no significantly difference for improving anxious. Finally, this research finds, after carrying out by the teaching of mastery learning under the cooperation learning theory, be a valid path towards promoting the achievement and motivation.
