Abstract: The current research aimed to identify the effect of the different types of navigation (pyramid-list) in the rich media on the development of the achievement of students in primary school in the mathematics curriculum. The research problem was limited to the following main question: In the interactive media on the development of academic achievement of primary school students? The research was applied to a sample of (60) third grade students randomly selected from Aws Bin Haritha Primary School in Madinah, Saudi Arabia, during the second semester of the second semester. In the 2017 academic year. Students were divided into two experimental groups, 30 of which were students as a first experimental group, which examined the multiplication facts by means of a hierarchical sailing pattern, and 30 students as a second experimental group. The same multiplication facts were examined by the list navigation style, Both groups have been applied The results of the study were found to be statistically significant at (0.05) between the average scores of the students in the two experimental groups. In the learning achievement test, the main effect of the variation of the navigation style (pyramid-list) in the interactive media is to the benefit of the group that implemented the application through the hierarchical navigation style. Therefore, we recommend that the results of the research be used to urge the education professionals to pay attention to the software production Which are designed by means of interactive media according to scientific technical standards and hierarchical navigation patterns to contribute to the achievement of the desired educational objectives.

The present study aimed to explore the effectiveness of a proposed program titled (creativity lamp) in improving students’ thinking skills and academic achievement and promoting creativity among them in Kuwait. This program involves several enrichment activities. The experimental group consists from 26 students. The control group consists from 25 students. Those students were randomly selected from a school named Al-Ma’moun Primary School. The proposed program is based on extracurricular activities. The teacher was trained about the way of implementing the program. The program was implemented throughout the semester. Through using the Torrance test of creative thinking-figural, it was found that the proposed program has a statistically significant impact –at the statistical significance of (a=0.001)- on the students’ academic achievement and creativity. The researchers recommend adding enrichment activities to the curricula of primary school students in Kuwait.

In this study, we explored the relationship between extracurricular (formal and informal) music activity participation and music and Chinese language academic achievements of primary school students in China. Fourth graders ( N = 10,958) reported their demographic information and extracurricular music activity participation, and completed two standardized academic achievement tests, one on music and another on the Chinese language. Results showed that students’ music activity participation was related to higher music academic achievement after controlling for gender, school location, and family socioeconomic status. The effect of students’ informal music activity participation on their music academic achievements was greater than that of students’ formal music activity participation. Remarkably, students’ informal music activity participation was also positively related to their Chinese language academic achievement, while formal music activity participation showed a negative correlation with academic achievement in Chinese language. Findings contributed to an increased understanding of the influence of different kinds of extracurricular music activities on students’ academic developments.

In this research two different ways of students' reviewing their knowledge in chemistry about carbohydrates are described: group work and discussion with teacher. In experimental group (EG) students were working in groups on their assignments, while in control group (CG) discussion led by teacher was implemented. Results showed better EG students’ achievements on paper-and-pencil test of knowledge on the following class. Keywords: evaluation, group work, teacher-led discussion, carbohydrates.

Abstract Research evidence on traditional dance teaching has shown how important it is for primary school education to institute reforms and present new ways of intervention in order to contribute effectively to the overall development of the child's personality. The aim of this research is a) to demonstrate the effectiveness of a music and movement instructional program on traditional dance learning, in terms of primary school students patterns of self-reported positive learning experiences and active lesson participation and b) to examine its impact on students’ internal motivation to play and dance with a more enjoyable and creative mood. During a period of six months 80 students (34 boys and 46 girls) aged between 9-10 years old, took part in the research. They were divided into two groups, the experimental group (N = 40) and control group (N = 40). The experimental group was taught Greek traditional dances according to a Music and Movement teaching model, while the control group was taught the same dances with a direct teaching model. The impact of the two models on students’ motivation to participate actively during the lesson was tested with the use of the Intrinsic Motivation Inventory (IMI). The results showed that the use of Music and Movement teaching models can have a positive impact on students’ intrinsic motivation and active participation in the course of traditional dance.

A teacher makes a logical observation of the problem based on his/her knowledge and experiences. Through reflecting the way of solving the problem, he/she makes a plan how to deal with the problem based on the feedback from the students and the results of the specific actions performed in the activities. Such research activities of students can give the expected results if they become a need to stimulate their cognitive activity. Therefore, solving different types of problems, changing the form of problems on the conditions and applying thinking operations serve as a means of shaping the interest of students in learning. The article describes the essence of the interest in learning, the specifics of the main stages of its development, shows that the teaching of mathematics is related to the learning objectives, describes ways and means of developing an interest in learning.

Despite the general agreement that the interdisciplinary model of physical education (PE), based on the incorporation of core academic subjects into the PE curriculum, stimulates the holistic development of students, there is still a lack of methods for its implementation. Therefore, Eduball was created, i.e., a method that uses educational balls with printed letters, numbers, and other signs. Numerous studies have shown that children participating in activities with Eduballs can develop their physical fitness while simultaneously improving their academic performance, particularly in math and language, including some writing skills. However, little is known about the effects of Eduball on children’s graphomotor skills, which are key for the academic performance of students throughout the entire schooling process. Here, we investigate whether 6-month participation in PE with Eduball stimulates graphomotor skills in primary school students, such as drawing prehandwriting letter patterns on unlined or lined paper and rewriting text on unlined or lined paper. Our results show that the Eduball class (N= 28) significantly improved these skills compared to the control class (N= 26) participating in traditional PE. For example, students from the experimental group wrote with a lower pen pressure and better stability of the line, in contrast to those from the control group. Therefore, this study demonstrates that the Eduball method successfully supports teachers in developing graphomotor skills in children. More broadly, our findings make clear once again that there is the need to integrate physical and cognitive development in education, which can be achieved by using an interdisciplinary model of PE.
