The Effectiveness of Task-Based Learning strategy in the Academic Achievement by Soran University Students in the Subject of Chemistry and Developing their Prospective Thinking Skills
الملخص
The research aims to investigate the impact of Task-Based Learning (TBL) strategy on the student's academic achievement and develop the prospective thinking skills of the students in the (3rd) stage of the General Science Department. This research is experimental, and the research population consisted of (48) students that are randomly divided into two equivalent groups, experimental and control groups. The experimental group consisted of (24) students who were taught lessons depending on Task-Based Learning, while the control group students were taught lessons depending on the traditional method and consisted of (24) students. Two tools were prepared to identify the research aims, the first one was the academic achievement test which consisted of (25) items, and the researcher found all psychometric characteristics for the test. The second tool was the prospective thinking skills scale consisted of (40) items. The pre and post-tests were conducted and the results showed a statistically significant difference between the experimental and control groups in favor of the experimental group in academic achievement. Moreover, the students’ prospective thinking skills in the experimental group developed by using the (TBL) strategy.
