The study aimed at identifying the effectiveness of teaching science using self-questioning strategy on academic achievement and developing reflective thinking skills. The sample consisted of 100 first grade intermediate female students in Khamis Mushait governorate, Saudi Arabia. The sample was divided into two equal groups: an experimental group studied by self-questioning strategy, and a control group which studied using the conventional  method. Teacher guide and student handbook activities were developed, and validated. Moreover, a science-achievement test and a reflective-thinking test were developed, checked for reliability, and validated. With regard to both instruments, the results showed statistically significant differences at the level of 0.05 in favor of the experimental group.

The research aimed to know The Effect of The Analogies Strategy in The Teaching of Science on Achievement and The Development of Creative Thinking Skills of The First Grade Intermediate Female Students, To achieve the aim of the research, the approach was used experimental; it was chosen as the experimental design for the two experimental and control group with the test after- behind, where the researcher prepared a test in the Achievement and The Creative Thinking Skills, was chosen as a random sample numbered (60) Student, the students of The First Grade Intermediate Female Students in Abha, Asir Province, has been divided into two groups: experimental numbered (30) student, studied using the Analogy strategy, and an officer numbered (30) students, studied using the usual way, it has been applied to the experience during the first semester of the academic year 1436/1437 AH. At the end of the experiment was applied the both two tests on the two groups, has resulted in the search for and no statistically significant differences at the level of results (0.05) between the mean scores of students in the experimental group (which studied using Analogy strategy) and control group (studied using usual) way, in the post application to test the Achievement and testing of Creative thinking skills for the experimental group. Also, it found that the use of Analogy strategy in the teaching of science has had a significant impact on the achievement and Achievement and The Development of Creative Thinking Skills of The First Grade Intermediate Female Students. In the light of the results, the study recommended to ensure that science teachers use the strategy of analogies in teaching because of its impact in achieving the desired goals, and increase the cultural awareness of science teachers about the topic of innovative thinking and the importance of its development among their students, and I also proposed conducting a study of the impact of science education using the analogies strategy on developing other skills of thinking.

This study aims to examine the impact of using some of the skills of the (CoRT) program on the development of critical thinking skills among a sample of talented students in King Abdullah II School of Excellence in Tafila Governorate. The sample consisted of 60 male and female students randomly selected. They were divided into two groups: an experimental group that consisted of 30 students exposed to the acquisition of the skills of the CoRT program and the control group that consisted of 30 students who did not study the program. The Watson Glaser critical thinking test was also applied. The results shows a statistically significant effect, at (α≤ 0.05), in improving the critical thinking skills of the students of the experimental group and shows a statistically significant effect on the test of critical thinking skills due to the variable of educational level and for the favor of the ninth grade. The study also reveals that there were no statistically significant differences in the test of critical thinking skills in relation to the the gender variable. The researcher recommends developing the teacher competencies to teach the skills of thinking in general and critical thinking skills, in particular, through the conducting of courses, seminars, and workshops in the CoRT program.

This study aimed at investigating the effectiveness of an educational program based on constructive learning model (CLM) in acquiring and developing scientific concepts the skills of scientific thinking among the female students of the eighth grade in the directorate of education in Al-Mazar Al-Janoubi for the academic year (2020-2021). The study used the quasi approach, where a random sample was selected from the study population that consisted of all the female students of the eighth grade, with a total of (910) female students, while the purposive sample consisted of (57) female students and was randomly distributed to two groups: the experimental group and control group. The study instrument included the test of acquiring scientific concepts, with (32) multiple-choice items and the test of scientific thinking skills, with (30) multiple-choice items distributed to five skills (determining the problem, collecting data, determining hypotheses, testing hypotheses, concluding results); their validity and reliability were verified. The researcher developed the educational program, represented by a number of educational activities in the two units of (living beings and their environment, and motion) from the science textbook of the eighth grade, based on the constructive learning model (CLM). The program consisted of (32) periods and was applied to the experimental group during the academic year (2020-2021). The study results showed that the program, which is based on the constructive learning model (CLM) was effective in promoting the students' acquisition of the scientific concepts and developing their scientific thinking skills, where the mean scores for the experimental group were higher than the control group. The study recommended conducting further experimental studies for similar educational programs that include samples from other educational stages and other textbooks.

This study aims at examining the effectiveness of using the narrative approach in teaching the Interpretation of the Qur'an course in the development of conceptual comprehension among first-grade middle school female students. To achieve the objective of this study, a quantitative quasi-experimental design has been used. The sample consisted of first-grade middle school female students at "the third middle school" in Buraidah city, as this school suits the objective of the study. A test of conceptual understanding has been built by the researchers according to a list of conceptual understating skills at a significance level of α ≤ 0.05. Results have shown that there are statistically significant differences at the level (α ≤ 0,05) between the mean scores of the experimental group and the control group students regarding the conceptual comprehension test in favour of the experimental group. Moreover, there are statistically significant differences between the mean scores of the experimental group students in the pre- and post-conceptual comprehension tests in favour of the post-test. Based on these results, the researchers have provided a set of related recommendations and suggestions, such as: accentuating the importance of using the narrative approach in constructing Sharia sciences courses in general and the interpretation of the Qur'an course in particular. Accordingly, the researchers have recommended conducting a study entitled the effectiveness of using the narrative approach in teaching the interpretation of the Qur'an course in developing the first-grade secondary school students’ conceptual comprehension.
