Teaching geometry using an educational program based on enrichment activities to improve the visual thinking of basic stage students

Abstract EN

The study aims to investigate the effectiveness of using an educational strategy based on enrichment activities in teaching geometry on improving the visual thinking of 8th grade students.

To achieve the objectives of the study, a visual thinking test was built.

Validity and reliability were secured.

The sample of the study consisted of 47 students.

The experimental group (n= 24) were taught according to enrichment activities, while the control group (n= 23) were taught using the traditional method.

Results showed statistically significant differences between the means of the performance of the students of the experimental and control groups on the visual thinking test that can be attributed to the teaching method and in favor of the experimental group.

In light of the results, the researchers recommended using enrichment activities in teaching geometry.
