The main goal of this study was to examine the impact of blended learning on the academic achievement of undergraduate students in the general chemistry (CHE101) course. The participants' learners of the study were (326) learners, who were randomly split into two groups, one of which taught by using blended learning (empirical group A, n = 163) and the other which with taught by using the conventional method (control group B, n = 163). To accomplish the objectives of the study, the researchers prepared the study tool, which is an achievement test, after confirming its validity and reliability. Data analyses showed that there is a statistically significant difference among the mean scores of learners in the two study groups on the achievement test, for the benefit of empirical group learners, who taught through blended learning. Moreover, the results revealed that achievement varied according to the College of the learners in the empirical group (in favor of those students of Pharmacy and Health Sciences College). However, there is no statistically significant difference in students according to the students’ gender variable and, according to the Academic year variable. The study recommended that blended learning be used more widely to cover different sectors of education.

The purpose of this study was to identify the impact of immediate corrective feedback in classroom discussions on the level of knowing and applying the rules of Quran recitation among tenth grade students. To achieve this, researchers used two tools: a written test, and a verbal test. After confirming the validity and reliability of the tools, they were administered to 84 tenth grade female students. The results revealed that the second experimental group outperformed the first experimental group and the control group in the application of the rules of Quranic recitation. Also, the two experimental groups outperformed the control group in the knowledge of rules of Quranic recitation. The study puts forward a number of recommendations. The most important of which is the need to provide corrective feedback as it is one of classroom practices that provide the learner with information about the accuracy of her performance, and to modify underperformance or error. Also, there is a need to use a variety of methods of active corrective feedback in classroom.

The objective of this study is to examine the impact of instructing quadratic functions with the use of GeoGebra software and guided discovery worksheets on students’ achievement and level of reaching acquisitions. This study utilized a pretest-posttest control group experimental design. It was conducted in the 2017-2018 academic year with 62 tenth grade students of a high school in the center of Balikesir, Turkey. The study data was collected using quadratic functions achievement test. The quantitative data collected in the study were analyzed using independent samples t-test. The findings of the study indicated that the instruction exercised with the use of GeoGebra software and guided discovery worksheets was effective in increasing achievement and the level of the capability to reach acquisitions compared to the control group; the findings also indicated that the instruction created a significant difference. This study also found that the students in the control group students focused on algebraic operations and formulas, mainly memorized the formulas, and were unable to build the relation between graphics and the algebraic expression of functions. On the other hand, the students in the experimental group were better in building the relation between algebraic expressions and graphics, and more successful in interpreting graphics.

This study investigates the impact of using the heuristic teaching approach for teaching mathematics to tenth grade students in Jordan. The researchers followed the equivalent pre/post T test two group designs. To achieve the goal of the study, a pre/post- test was constructed to measure student achievement in mathematics. The sample for this study consisted of 142 students; 69 male students and 73 female students from tenth grade at King Abdullah School in Irbid, Jordan for the first semester of the academic year 2011/2012. The subjects of the study were distributed into an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group was taught mathematics using the heuristic approach while the control group was taught mathematics using the traditional method of teaching. The subjects were 34 male students for the experimental group and 35 male students for the control group, while the female students for the experimental and control group were 37 and 36 respectively. Those subjects were distributed into two purposefully selected sections at king Abdullah School in Irbid. Descriptive statistical analyses were used (means and standard deviation) for the pre- and post- tests of students. Comparison statistical methods were used (Two Way ANOVA) analysis of variance to make a comparison between the control and the experimental groups and gender variable. The findings of the study indicated that there were statistically significant differences in the post- test between the control and the experimental groups in favor of the experimental group, and there was no statistically significant difference in the students' achievement due to gender. There was no statistically significant difference due to the interaction between gender and group. The researcher proposes some recommendations to enhance the effect of using heuristic approach in teaching mathematics on students' performance such as conducting further studies in other universities.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of using the smart board on the achievement of tenth grade students in the English language, and verbal interaction, where the study sought to answer two questions:Does the achievement of tenth grade students in English language vary due to teaching strategy?Does the ratio of verbal interaction using smart board in teaching among tenth grade students vary from the ratio of verbal interaction at Flanders? (81) students from two sections chosen randomly from among (5) sections participated in the study, the experimental and control groups were chosen randomly, the experimental group were taught using smart board, and the control group were taught using the traditional way supported by computer. Achievement test in English language was applied, and Flanders' modified tool for the analysis of the verbal interaction was applied on the experimental group. The results showed the existence of significant differences in the achievement of the students; and in favor of the experimental group. The results showed a statistically significant difference in the ratio of speech of students who were taught using smart board. And the rate of teachers' speaking during teaching with smart board has increased, and periods of interruption verbal communication, and the percentage of questions rose by the teacher and her encouragement to her students, and the responses of the students and their initiatives.In light of the findings, the study recommends the need to urge teachers to use the smart board in the teaching of the English language, and holding workshops to train teachers on how to use the smart board in teaching, and conducting studies reveal the reality of the use of the smart board.


This study aimed to investigate the impact of the usage of the Van Hiele model in the development of geometric thinking levels among tenth grade students in Jordan. The sample of the study was selected from tenth grade basic students in Amman schools. Two hundred and forty students studying the mathematics course in the circle unit were divided into two groups: experimental (using the Van Hiele model) and the control (using the traditional approach of teaching).To achieve the objectives of the study, a test of geometric thinking in the unit of the circle was developed. Validity and reliability of the test was verified. The instructional material was also prepared in the circle unit for the students of the tenth grade using the Van Hiele model of geometric thinking. Four mathematics teachers were trained on the model, and the content validity of the training material was verified. The results of the study showed a statistically significant difference (α=0.01) between the two arithmetic means of the experimental and control agencies in favor of the experimental group that used the Van Hiele model in geometric thinking in general, and in sub-levels (visual, descriptive, logical), and the study showed no statistical significance difference (α=0.01) between the arithmetic means of male and female in geometric thinking, also the study showed an interaction between the model variable and gender variable in geometric thinking.
