الملخص EN

This quasi-experimental study tested the effect of a proposed educational software on third-grade students’ mastering of multiplication tables.

A sample of third-grade students at Mohammad bin Abdulwahhab elementary school in Taif was randomly selected (N=60) and divided into two groups: an experimental group (30 students) and a control group (30 students).

To fulfill the purpose of this study, a pretest was administered to the study population to ensure homogeneity.

The experimental group was instructed using a proposed educational software and the control group received traditional instruction.

The posttest was used to measure students mastering of multiplication tables at the levels of remembering, comprehension, and application after verifying its validity and persistence in scientific methods and applying it before and after the study sample.

The data were analyzed using T-test for independent samples to detect the significance of differences between the two study groups in the posttest.

The findings of the study revealed statistically significant differences at (a ≤ 0.05) between the mean scores of the two groups in mastering the multiplication tables at the level of remembering, comprehension, and measurement as a whole in favor of the experimental group The effect size was small .46, very large 1.22, and large .96 respectively.

Moreover, the findings showed no statistically significant differences at (a ≤ 0.05) between the mean scores of the two groups in mastering the multiplication tables at the level of implications.
