Abstract EN

The objective of this study was to identify the effect of using the strategy of Analogy in the acquisition of chemical concepts among female students of tenth grade in Jordan.

The study adopted the Quasi- experimental method.

The tool consisted of (Chemical Concepts Test), prepared by the researcher.

The test was applied to a random sample of two divisions (B & C) of the tenth grade female students in the secondary school of Al- Sawari Comprehensive Girls' School, belonging to the Directorate of Education of Aqaba Governorate during the academic year 2018/2019.

The results of t- test for two independent samples showed that there was statistically significant difference between the mean scores of the experimental and control groups students on the chemical concepts test due to the variable of the teaching method.

The control group obtained a total mean of (13.25), whereas the total mean score of the experimental group was (18.02).

In light of the results of the study, the researcher recommended the training of chemistry teachers on using the strategy of Analogy in the teaching of chemistry; due to their effectiveness in teaching, and recommended a performing of studies on other teaching methods.
