نموذج مقترح لتدريس العلوم قائم على تكامل نصفي المخ لتنمية الاستيعاب المفاهيمي و الكفاءة الذاتية في العلوم لدى تلاميذ المرحلة الابتدائية

Abstract EN

The research aimed to prepare a proposed teaching model based on the integration of the two hemispheres of the brain to develop the conceptual understanding and self-efficacy in science among elementary school pupils, to achieve that, a model for teaching science to primary school pupils was built consisting of four stages: concept reflection, concept formation, concept practice, and concept expansion.

, Both conceptual understanding test and self-efficacy in science scale ware prepared.

The proposed model was tested on a group of primary fifth grade pupils (86) using the experimental method and the quasi-experimental design with the control group and the experimental group.

The results indicated that there is a statistically significant difference between the mean scores of the control group and the experimental group in the post measure to both conceptual understanding test and self-efficacy in science scale for the benefit of the experimental group.

The results also indicated that the size of the proposed model's influence on the growth conceptual understanding as a whole and the growth of its dimensions and the growth self-efficacy in science and the growth of its dimensions came great.

This indicates to effectiveness of the proposed teaching model in developing conceptual understanding and self-efficacy in science among elementary school pupils.

According to these results, the research recommended including the proposed model in the teacher's guides for the science curriculum at the primary level and training science teachers to use it in science teaching.
