Abstract EN

This study aims to identify the effectiveness of a training program based on the development of the awareness of the meta-cognition strategies.

This training program is built through the use of the applications of the problem solving method.

The suggested training program aims to increase academic achievement in fifth grade students with learning disabilities in the primary stage within the State of Kuwait.

The sample contained 39 male pupils and 38 female pupils.

These pupils were distributed into two groups, the experimental group (20 male and 20 female), and the control group (19 males and 18 females).

The researchers built the training program based on the meta-cognition strategies through the usage of the applications of the problem solving methods.

The researchers applied the suggested training program on the experimental groups for a full month (each group had 20 sessions).

The researchers also built two achievement tests to be applied before and after the experiment, one for the mathematics subject and the other for the Arabic subject.

The results of the study showed the effectiveness of the suggested training program in increasing the academic achievement for learning disabilities pupils in both mathematics, and Arabic subjects.

Recommendations are cited as educational applications for other subjects.
