فاعلية إستراتيجية اليد المفكرة في تصويب التصورات البديلة لبعض المفاهيم العلمية و تنمية التحصيل و الحس العلمي لدى ذوي الإعاقة السمعية من تلاميذ المرحلة الابتدائية

Abstract EN

The present study aimed at correcting alternative conceptions of some scientific concepts and developing achievement and scientific sense of hearing impaired pupils at the primary stage using the hands on strategy.

The sample of the study included (15) pupils at the fifth grade.

The researcher used the one group quasi- experimental design with pre-post measurement.

This group studied a unit (energy) that was prepared using the hands on strategy.

The instruments of the study included the alternative conceptions test, the achievement test (in the selected unit), the scientific sense scale that were administered before and after the treatment on the sample of the study.

The results of the study revealed that the strategy was effective in correcting alternative conceptions of scientific concepts in the selected unit and developing achievement and scientific sense of the sample of the study.

In the light of these results, the researcher recommends avoiding the traditional methods in teaching science for the hearing impaired pupils and training teachers on using new strategies that gives much attention to active learning like hands on strategy.

Finally, the study presented some suggestions for further research.
