فاعلية برنامج إلكتروني قائم على نموذج كيلر ARCS في تنمية الدافعية نحو مادة لغتي الجميلة لدى تلاميذ الصف السادس الابتدائي

Abstract EN

The aim of this study was to examine the effectiveness of a Keller's ARCS Model-based Electronic Program in developing motivation towards My Beautiful Language subject for the sixth elementary graders.

For the research purpose, an experimental method-quasi-experimental design-based on two group design (experimental and control) was used here, after developing these tools: (1) Motivation Towards Learning My Beautiful Language Subject Scale, (2) Keller's ARCS Model Based Electronic Program, and (3) Electronic Program User's Manual.

After verifying the validity and reliability of this research instruments, these tools were used and applied to the sample including 58 sixth elementary graders divided into two groups: experimental (No=28) and control (No=30) randomly selected from multi stages.

The following statistics was used here: means, standard deviations, Alpha Cronbach Coefficient, t-tests for two independent groups.

Results indicated that there were statistically significant differences at the α 0.05 level between the mean scores for both groups in students' motivation towards learning through Keller's Model-based Electronic Program (ARCS) on the scale dimensions for the participants in favour of the experimental group.

Recommendations included supporting electronic learning based on student's self-learning through benefiting from Keller's ARCS Model -based Electronic Program (ARCS) in this study and expanding its use in Arabic different skills and different educational stages.
