This study aimed at examining the effect of using manipulatives in the
mathematical achievement of the first graders at UNRWA schools in
Jerash area in Jordan. The sample of the study consisted of 155 students
representing four sections, who were
divided into two groups: An
experimental group which was taught “numbers from 0-9” subjects using
manipulatives, and a control group which was taught by the traditional
method. After the completion of the study application, an achievement
test was applied and a 2-way ANOVA analysis was used to test the
hypotheses of the study.
The study results revealed that there were statistically significant
differences between the two groups in favor of the experimental group,
which was taught by using manipulatives; whereas there were no
significant differences between students’ marks due to sex or the
interaction between group and sex.
This study aims to investigate the effect of using the sixth learning strategy on the
achievement of the basic tenth grade female students in Mathematics, and on their attitudes
towards it. The study tries to answer the following questions: 1) what
is the effect of using
the sixth learning strategy on the achievement of the basic tenth grade female students in
Mathematics? 2) What is the effect of using the sixth learning strategy on attitudes of the
basic tenth grade female students towards Mathematics?
The sample was consist of (80) students selected purposely, and distributed randomly
into two groups, experimental group (40) students, and control group (40) students, to
achieve the purpose of the study, two instruments were designed, achievement test,
andattitudes scale. Their Validity and Reliability were verified.
Being and Event is the title of the most prominent book of the French philosopher
Alain Badiou, but it’s also a title of an entire philosophical space. Between the two sides of
this title, the philosophy has reorganized all the traditional philosop
hical concepts,
especially the truth and the subject. In this context, Badiou’s philosophy is particularly
affluent, because it returned back to the very beginning of the philosophy, and launched a
discussion with the most eminent philosophical moments in the history of philosophy. In
this article, we represent the outlines of this philosopher’s doctrine, it’s the first
representation of its kind in Arabic, and we discuss the most important topics he put up,
especially the political ones.
The present study aimed at evaluating the styles of the mathematics teachers which
help to develop thinking skills of the sixth grade students at the basic education in Lattakia,
and it also aimed at examining the significance of differences among
the means average of
teachers who practice the encourage methods to thinking skills of students according to
variables of (gender, Experience and the scientific qualification). To achieve this goal, the
descriptive approach was used. And an assessment scale of the teacher's style of
developing thinking was prepared for evolution. After proving its validity and stability
according to the known statistical methods, the scale was applied to a sample of 30
teachers (males and females).
The results were as follows:
- The degree of mathematics teachers concerning their practices of developing
thinking methods of the of the sixth graders at the basic education in Lattakia was (54.2%)
which was represented first by providing the interactive social environment (58.4%), and
second it was represented to (53.6%) for the method of listening to students and respecting
their views whatever they were simple, and third it was represented to (51%) concerning
the teacher' using modern to modern teaching strategies.
- There are no statistical significant differences between the teachers' responses on
the teacher practice scale of developing thinking methods due to the variable of gender,
scientific certificate, and the years of experience.
The two researchers suggested developing of the mathematics guide book of the
sixth grade, and developing programs of preparing and training teachers to improve the
levels of thinking by students such as analysis, synthesis, criticism and weight-bearing
skills, in addition to holding training sessions to in-service teachers in order to activate the
teaching practices methods that encourage developing thinking, and they also suggested
applying similar studies depending on the observation card at different teaching stages by
other subjects teachers.
An attempt has been made to present a brief historical highlight of the role
that mathematics played in the advancement of computer science, and the role
of the latter in the enrichment of mathematical sciences and the solution of
well-known problems that posed a challenge for centuries. This interaction has
been a motive that contributed to the advancement of both branches of
knowledge.
The research aim to know the impact of using puzzles in the
development of critical thinking with pupils in the fourth grade
basic In mathematics, to achieve this goal, The researcher set up
(22) Puzzles mystery spread over seven lessons are(Angle
s,
Rectangle and square, Surroundings of rectangle and square,
Rectangle and square area, Height and distance, Mass, Capacity),
The research sample consisted of (61) male and female students
from the School of Abdul Karim Al Ragab, Divided into
experimental group numbered (30) pupils have been taught by
mathematical puzzles, And a control group numbered (31) pupils
have been taught in the traditional way, The study tool is a test of
critical thinking and test consisted of (24) items, distributed evenly
over the four skills of critical thinking, It follows: The skill of the
possibility of the right solution, interpretation Skill.
