فاعلية استخدام الإنفوجرافيك لتدريس الرياضيات في تنمية مهارات التفكير الرياضي لدى طالبات الصف الثاني المتوسط

Abstract EN

The study aimed at identifying the effectiveness of using infographics to teach mathematics in developing mathematical thinking skills among eighth-grade students.

The researchers followed the experimental design.

The sample of the study consisted of 50 female eighth-grade students from the second middle school in Laqaet, Sakaka city, Saudi Arabia.

The simple random sampling method was used (experimental group which studied with the help of infographics n = 25 students/ control group n =25 students).

The research tool was a test of mathematical thinking skills prepared by the researchers.

Three statistical methods were used: Kolmogorov-Smirnov Test, T-test for independent samples, and Eta squared.

Results of the study revealed that there are statistically significant differences between the mean scores of the experimental group and the control group in the test of mathematical thinking skills as a whole, in favor of the experimental group.

Consequently, it was concluded that there is effectiveness of using infographic presentations for teaching mathematics in the development of mathematical thinking skills of eighth-grade students.

The study recommended the use of infographic presentations in teaching mathematics because of its impact on developing mathematical thinking skills.

The study also recommended training mathematics teachers on designing infographic presentations.
