أثر التمثيل الدرامي للمادة التعليمية في تحصيل طلبة الصف الرابع في مبحث التربية الاجتماعية

الملخص EN

This study aimed at investigating the effect of using drama on fourth-grade students` achievement in social education as compared to traditional class-teaching method.

A random sample of (208) students was chosen from Irbid Directorate of Education schools.

The sample was then divided into two groups: the experimental group with (140) students, taught through drama and the control group with (68) students taught through traditional ways of instruction.

The results revealed significant differences in achievement, between the two groups in favor of the experimental group.

However they did not show any differences attributed to gender or to the interaction between gender and teaching method.

Based on these findings, appropriate recommendations were suggested.
