معوقات التمكني العلمي في تعلم الرياضيات لدى طلاب المرحلة الثانوية : دراسة ميدانية

Abstract EN

The study aimed to identify the views of high school students towards the current obstacles of scientific empowerment in learning mathematics, and examine the impact of study variables (gifted students, excellent students, and medium-achieving students) in terms of scientific empowerment on learning mathematics.

a questionnaire was designed in order to achieve the objective of the study, and it was verified for validity and reliability.

it consisted of 27 statements divided into three main dimensions, including the obstacles related to each student, curriculum, and teacher, and it was applied to a stratified random sample of (123) students.

to answer the questions of the study, the researcher used the descriptive statistical methods (percentages, arithmetic means and standard deviations).

the Pearson correlation coefficient was used to verify the indicators of study tool validity, while the Cronbach alpha coefficient was used to verify the stability of the instrument of the study and its dimensions.

besides, some methods of methods of induction statistics were used such as, analysis of one-way variation, which was used to test the significance of the differences between the responses of the sample members according to their scientific level.

the study findings revealed that the constraints of scientific empowerment in learning mathematics were in the descending order of means as follows : the teacher (3.0) with a medium degree, followed by the curriculum (2.53) with a medium degree then the student (2.53) with a low degree.

the findings also indicated that there were statistically significant differences about the obstacles of scientific empowerment associated with the student and the curriculum due to the variable of academic level for the benefit of middle-achieving students.

moreover, there were statistically significance differences about the obstacles of scientific empowerment associated with the teacher ; that were attributed to the variable of academic level for the benefit of excellent students.

in light of the study findings, the following recommendations were proposed : preparing a mandatory training program for high school students, through which the student shall learn about the strategies of solving mathematical problems.

developing mathematics curriculum to support scientific empowerment practices through the development of an ethical supplement that includes model and detailed solutions for mathematical problems.

establishing scientific seminars, implemented by the ministry of education and in cooperation with the colleges of education, to discuss the teacher’ roles towards achieving the scientific empowerment of the student, and methods of implementation.

engaging the educational media in spreading the culture of scientific empowerment in the school community, and stating of its benefits
