The aim of this study is to determine the effect of using computer simulation on students’ performance in teaching and learning physical science, particularly the electrical Ohm’s law. A sample of 182 students classified into two groups–experimental (92) and control (90)–from two middle schools in Meknes city (one in the rural area and the other urban area) was the subject of a pretest and posttest evaluation. The outcomes of the administered test to both groups of students, control and experimental, were compared and analyzed using Student’s t-test and the Mann–Whitney U test with Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). The results obtained suggest that the experimental group register the best performances after the posttest than the control group ( p < 0.05 ). While no difference, in terms of performance, was signed according to gender in the experimental group ( p > 0.05 ), the urban students were more successful than the rural ones, with and without the use of simulations. In this respect, this study recommended using and practicing simulation software to improve and develop the performance of middle school students.

The objective of this research is to find out the effect of Jigsaw technique on reading comprehension at grade ten of SMA 4 Negeri Pematangsiantar. The research used descriptive quantitative research design by applying Quasi-Experimental design. In conducting this design, the subjects of the research were divided into two groups: experimental group and control group. The treatment is introduced only to the experimental subject. The experimental group is treated by using Jigsaw technique while the control group is treated without Jigsaw technique. The subject of this research was the grade ten students (X PMIA 4 and X PMIA 5) in SMA Negeri 4 Pematangsiantar. The researcher used mobile phone as instrument which recorded video teacher and students activity during teaching and learning process in the class. The result of the research showed that in significance degree of 5%, the value of t-observe > t-table that was (5.55 > 1.669). It could be said that t-observe was higher than t-table. So, the null hypothesis is rejected while the alternative hypothesis is accepted. In other words it can be concluded that the application of Jigsaw teaching technique significantly affects the students’ ability in reading comprehension of recount text at grade ten of SMA Negeri 4 Pematangsiantar.

Smartboards, which are now widely used in the teaching and learning process in Saudi Arabia, have turned the traditional environments of the classrooms, especially the EFL classrooms to be more interesting and encouraging. Literature reviews suggest that Saudi students usually lack motivation for studying English as a foreign language. This study tends to investigate the impact of Smartboards on preparatory year EFL learners motivation at a Saudi university. Two intact groups were selected, in which one was termed as experimental and the second as control group. The experimental group was taught using the Smartboard while the control group was taught with the traditional whiteboard, pen and book method. The treatment was given for seven weeks. A questionnaire was administered to both the groups at the beginning and the end of the study. The data was analysed using the SPSS and the results showed that there was significant difference between the experimental and control groups in terms of motivation.

Purpose: There is need to focus on extensive use of technology in teaching and learning process, since the teachers are provided with well-organized WebQuests that are beneficial for developing effective teaching skills. The study aims to investigate the extent of the effects of WebQuests on the teaching skills and performance of pre-service teachers of English at the College of Education of King Khalid University. Methodology: The study sample, which included 35 students of the general diploma in English, were divided into two groups: experimental and control. The members of the control group were supervised in the traditional way during their teaching practice, and the members of the experimental group were given WebQuests so that they could surf the internet under the guidance of their supervisor and find the information they needed about teaching skills. The teaching performance of the teachers of both groups was assessed via a teaching performance observation form. The data collected through classroom observation was analyzed using SPSS. The differences between the teachers of both the groups in terms of the teaching skills were calculated using Mann-Whitney U test. Findings: Statistically significant differences were found in the rank means of the participants of the control and the experimental groups regarding their lesson planning and teaching skills. The results were favorable for the teachers of the experimental group; however, no significant difference was found between the scores of the experimental and the control groups in terms of lesson evaluation skills. Originality: The use of WebQuests significantly enhances the teaching skills of the students of the general diploma in English.

This research aims to know the influence of guided inquiry learning with flash based Invertebramedia on the learning outcome of senior high school students. The research was done in SMA N 1 Pamotan using Quasi Experimental Design. The sample of the study was X MIPA 1 class (experimental group) and X MIPA 2 class (control group) which was taken by purposive sampling technique. The results showed that there were increasing of cognitive’s learning outcome of the experiment group was 80% and control group was 34.2%. There was a significant difference in the average of cognitive learning outcomes of the experimental group and control group. Analysis of affective and psychomotor aspects showed that learning outcome the experimental group higher that the control group. So, the activity of students during learning process was enchancement. The average of the student’s questionnaire responses after joining the learning was 84.9% in good criteria. The teacher and the students also gave good responses on the implementation of the learning in general. The conclusion of the research is the application of guided inquiry learning with Invertebramedia based on flash influence on high school student’s learning outcomes.
