The impact of Active Learning in the achievement and acquisition of some life skills in biology and health education cours (Quasi-experimental study of the fourth grade Pupils of a primary school in Jableh)


Abstract in English

This research aims at identifying the impacts of Active learning on the achievement and acquisition of the fourth grade students in Subject science and health education, and their acquisition of some life skills : It formed the research sample consisted of (138) pupils distributors into two groups: the first trial included (77) male and female pupils, and the second control group included (61) male and female pupils,.
