أثر التطبيقات الحياتية للرياضيات في اكتساب المفاهيم الجبرية و خفض قلق الرياضيات لدى طلبة الصف الثامن الأساسي في الأردن

Abstract EN

The purpose of the study was to investigate the effect of life applications of mathematics on the acquisition of algebraic concepts and reducing math anxiety of eight grade students in Jordan.

To achieve this purpose a study sample of (91) students was selected from the eighth grade.

This sample was divided into two groups.

One group was randomly chosen to be the experimental group that studied mathematics using life applications, the other was the control group that studied mathematics using traditional method without life applications.

The instruments of the study were an algebraic concepts test and a questionnaire of math anxiety.

Data analysis procedures using appropriate T-test for independent samples revealed a positive effect of life applications of mathematics on the acquisition of algebraic concepts and reducing math anxiety of eight grade students
