أثر استخدام استراتيجية التعلم المستند إلى الدماغ في تنمية التفكير الرياضي و خفض القلق لدى طلبة المرحلة الأساسية في مدارس عمان

Abstract EN

The study aimed to investigate the impact of using brain-based learning strategy in the development of mathematical thinking and to reduce anxiety among students in the basic stage in the Amman schools.

The study sample consisted of (101) students of the eighth grade elementary school students with different levels of mathematical anxiety, were randomly divided into two groups, one experimental and the other a control.

In order to answer the questions of the study, the researcher developed a test in mathematical thinking whose validity and stability were verified, and a measure of mathematical anxiety was verified.

The results of the study showed that there was a statistically significant difference (α≤0.05) between the two mean scores of the experimental group (studied using the brain-based learning strategy) and the control (usually studied) in mathematical thinking and mathematical anxiety.

Also showed an inverse correlation between mathematical thinking and mathematical anxiety.

In light of the results of the study, the researcher recommends the use of brain-based learning strategy in the teaching of mathematics.
