The purpose of this study was inquiring The Impact of the Problem Solving Strategy on Acquiring Technology Concepts in the Computer Science of Ninth Grade Students in Jordan. To achieve goals of this study, a test has been developed to observe the Technology Concepts. The researcher adopted a quasi-experimental approach in which the experimental group consisting of (30) students was taught in accordance with Problem Solving Strategy. At the same time, the controlled group consisting of (30 students) was taught in the traditional way. The tests and the motive measuring was applied prior and post- teaching on both groups. The Analysis of Covariance results (ANCOVA) indicated a significant difference at (α≤0.05) between the two groups, which is attributed to the Problem Solving Strategy, in developing the Acquiring Concepts in Computer Science, of Computer Science Education Course for the experimental group. The results also indicated variation in the performance of (the experimental group) students in the posttest of the Problem Solving Strategy (in developing the Technology Concepts. The study recommended introducing the Problem Solving Strategy in the teaching of Computer Science Education Course, and conducting other similar studies in different educational stages.

AbstractThis article reports on a case study that aims to help students develop mechanistic reasoning through constructing a model based stop-motion animation of a physical phenomenon. Mechanistic reasoning is a valuable thinking strategy for students in trying to make sense of scientific phenomena. Ten ninth-grade students used stop-motion software to create an animation of projectile motion. Retrospective think-aloud interviews were conducted to investigate how the construction of a stop-motion animation induced the students’ mechanistic reasoning. Mechanistic reasoning did occur while the students engaged in creating the animation, in particular chunking and sequencing. Moreover, all students eventually exhibited mechanistic reasoning including abstract concepts, e.g., not directly observable agents. Students who reached the highest level of mechanistic reasoning, i.e., chaining, demonstrated deeper conceptual understanding of content.

Effect Of Age

Life event stressors were rated by 60 sixth grade students from their personal points-of-view and by two adult samples ( ns = 11 and 17) on the basis of how they believed a typical 12- to 14-yr.-old today would rate events. Ratings of adults and sixth grade youth indicated strong congruence and were significantly different from the rating relationship previously reported between adults and ninth grade students. Adults' familiarity with youth strengthened but did not significantly improve congruence of ratings.

This research was designed to find out and analyze of the collaborative learning application in reading material at ninth grade of SMPN 7 Kinali Pasaman Barat. This research conducted due to several problems found in the field which were students make a fuss when working in groups, students do not listen to given the assignment by the teacher. It can be seen that there were students who work on group assignments that care and others were just busy talking with others. This research was done in order to answer the research question “What were the role of student and what were the role of teacher in collaborative learning at the ninth grade of SMPN 7 Kinali Pasaman Barat?” This research was a qualitative research using collaborative learning strategy. The purpose of this research was to find out and analyze the collaborative learning applicationin reading material at the ninth grade of SMPN 7 KinaliPasaman Barat by analyzing the teacher’s and students’ role in the collaborative learning. The researcher used interview and observation as the instrument of the research. The interview was directed to both students and teacher, which for the students contained 12 questions and for the teacher contained 7 questions. The researcher took 2 classes namely IX1 and IX2 as the observation object.                    Based on the finding from interview and observation of the collaborative learning in SMPN 7 Kinali Pasaman Barat, it was found that the teacher already fulfilled her role in the collaborative learning effectively, in the other hand the students still lack of the role as the cheer leader. They still laughed at their friends mistake. Besides that, the other roles that the students supposed to have were already done effectively. As the conclusion, the collaborative learning in SMPN 7 Kinali Pasaman Barat was good since the students and the teacher were doing their role effectively

This study aimed at examining the effect of Instructional software for earth and environmental subject on Increasing achievements of ninth grade students at king Abdullah the II for excellence school in Irbid. In order to achieve the objective of the study، The researcher adopted the experimental method، and prepared instructional software and achievement test، the subjects of the study consisted of (53) ninth basic graders، (27) males، (26) female. The subjects were randomly distributed into two groups، (26) of them in the experimental group taught by the instructional software، and (27) in the control group taught by the conventional method. The results of the study indicated that there were statistical significant differences at the level (α = 0.05) due to the teaching method، the mean value for control group is (20.44)، while the mean value for experimental group is (23.19)، in the favor of the experimental group subjects taught by the instructional software، and there were no statistical significant differences due to the gender or to the interaction between the gender and teaching method. The study suggested a number of recommendation and implications in order to increase students achievement in earth & environmental subjects and all curriculums.

Washback refers to influences of testing on teaching and learning. In Thailand and Indonesia, washback of the Ordinary National Educational Test (O-NET) and Ujian Nasional (UN) inevitably occurs on teaching and learning in classrooms at every level. This present study aims to explore and compare the washback effects of the O-NET and UN on English language learning as perceived by Thai and Indonesian ninth-grade students. It is a multi-case study (Thailand case and Indonesia case) by using triangulation design as the research design. The questionnaires concerning washback effects of national exams on English language learning were distributed to 200 ninth-graders in the two cases. In addition, six students from each case were interviewed. The results reveal that in both cases, the participants focus to learn on contents and skills that were likely to appear in the national exams. The participants learned English harder to perform well in the tests rather than to improve their English ability. Moreover, the students had high anxiety during the test preparations and feared for low O-NET and UN scores. The results of the study contribute to future washback study and improvement of English language teaching and learning at ninth-grade in Thailand and Indonesia.

The study aimed to investigate the effect of a strategy based on multiple intelligences in developing reading comprehension skills in Arabic language for ninth grade students compared to the usual method. The sample of the study, which was chosen randomly, consisted of (75) students divided into two groups, an experimental group totaling (38) students, and a control group totaling (37) students from the ninth grade students from Abdullah II School for Excellence in the Directorate of Education in Aqaba Governorate for the academic year 2020/ 2021. To achieve the goal of the study, the researcher designed the study tools, which are: a list of reading comprehension skills, the educational program, and a test of reading comprehension skills. The results showed a statistically significant difference at the level (α = 0.05) between the two groups in favor of the experimental group that was studied using the multiple intelligences strategy. The study recommended employing a strategy based on multiple intelligences in teaching reading to primary school students.
