تنمية المهارات الحياتية المتناغمة مع رؤية المملكة العربية السعودية 2030 من خلال مناهج الرياضيات في المرحلتين المتوسطة و الثانوية : (نموذج إجرائي)‎

Abstract EN

This study aims to identify a list of life skills consistent with the Kingdom's Vision 2030, which can be developed through mathematics curricula in the intermediate and secondary levels.

The study also sheds light on how (mathematics content, mathematics teachers) contribute to the development of life skills among intermediate and secondary school students and builds a procedural model for developing these skills through mathematics curricula.

The study used a qualitative approach through interviews with (10) mathematics teachers in the intermediate and secondary stages; whose teaching experience exceeded (10) years.

The researcher also analyzed the results of (18) studies that addressed students' life skills, in addition to the Kingdom's Vision 2030 document.

The information was collected, classified, analyzed, and linked to serve the objectives of the study.

The findings showed that life skills which consistent with the Kingdom's Vision 2030 and consistent with the nature of mathematics and the characteristics of growth in the intermediate and secondary stages are: problem-solving skills, creative thinking, critical thinking, and effective communication.

Specifications of the content that contribute to the development of these skills are identified as follows: embedding mathematical content with a set of examples, exercises, and activities that address mathematical communication skills such as mathematical symbol reading, mathematical generalizations, mathematical writing of mathematical relations, mathematical representation, mathematical translation, and symbolic processing; presenting mathematical concepts in a real context or real situations, as well as developing challenging activities that require student teamwork.

Concerning teachers' role in developing life skills, the findings showed a necessity to use teaching methods and strategies that enhance life skills among students, motivate them to cooperate with their colleagues, enhance their thinking, and contribute effectively in helping them to confront life problems such as Problem-solving, brainstorming, cooperative learning, numbered headers, projects, gamification.
