<p>The research aims to know the impact of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics education on both creative thinking and mathematical achievement. To achieve it, the two researchers followed the quasi-experimental approach with an experimental design for two groups, one experimental and the other a control. The research sample consisted of (32) female students from the fourth scientific grade in Al-Intisar Preparatory School for Girls / Al-Rasafa, First Directorate. The sample was chosen intentionally and was divided into two groups: a control group studying by the traditional method, their number (16), and an experimental group that applied the STEM approach, their number also (16). There was parity between the two research groups in the variables (chronological age, previous achievement in mathematics, innovative thinking). The research tools consist of testing innovative thinking skills (fluency, flexibility, originality, relationships) and achievement tests. The research experiment was applied before and after. To test the validity of the hypotheses, data were collected and then statistically analyzed using appropriate statistical methods. The results of the research found that there were statistically significant differences in both the tests of innovative thinking and mathematical achievement in favor of the experimental group that studied according to the STEM approach, and in light of the results, the researchers recommended several recommendations and suggestions.</p>
The aim of the research is to find out the effect of applying classroom assessment techniques (CATs) on both mathematical and logical thinking among fourth-grade scientific students. In pursuit of the research objectives, the experimental method was used, and the quasi-experimental design was used for two equivalent groups, one control group taught in the traditional way and the other experimental taught according to the techniques of classroom structural evaluation. The research sample consisted of (44) students from the fourth scientific grade who were intentionally chosen after ensuring their equivalence in several factors, most notably chronologi-cal age and the level of mathematics, and they were distributed equally among the two groups. To implement the research, three tools were built, represented in the teacher's handbook for applying the class formative assessment, the mathematical reasoning test, and the logical thinking test. The two researchers applied the exper-iment in the first semester of the academic year (2019/2020) AD. The two re-searchers applied the techniques of class formative assessment to the experimental group, while the control group studied according to the usual method, and then the mathematical thinking test and the dimensional logical thinking test were applied. On the experimental and control groups. The results showed that there were statis-tically significant differences between the mean scores of the two groups on the mathematical thinking test, and there were also statistically significant differences between the mean scores of the two groups on the logical reasoning test. The size of the effect of applying the class formative assessment on both thinking was calcu-lated, and it appeared that it had a clear effect on both mathematical thinking and logical thinking. In light of the results, the two researchers recommended a number of recommendations.
This research aims to know the essence of the correlative relationship between tactical thinking and solving mathematical problems. The researchers followed the descriptive research method to analyze relations, as all students from the mathematics department in the morning study were part of the research group. The research sample of (100) male and female students has been chosen based on the arbitrators' views. The tools for studying the sample of research composed of (12) items of the multiple-choice test in its final form to measure tactical thinking and require establish-ing a test of (6) test-type paragraphs to solve mathematical problems. The findings showed that sample students' tactical thinking and their capacity to overcome mathematical problems are flat-tering for all students.
The education system is facing new challenges and requirements as a result of the rapid and complex changes in the world. It has become necessary to change and improve the current system for online learning to keep pace with these changes. E-learning is of increasing importance in higher education and learning communities as standard components in many courses. Especially with the great development in technology, which the Corona pandemic had a great impact on its acceleration and increase in dealing with it. So the COVID-19 affected the whole world also affected education, so education is no longer limited to a specific place and time but it is now possible at any time and place. So even education has changed from face-to-face education to distance education. In this paper, Moodle is used to design an open-source e-learning platform that supports both the student and the teacher by providing services that facilitate teaching, and educational-related administrative tasks and effectiveness. In addition, to know how it affects digital skills which considered one of the most important things related to the Internet recently. The findings obtained as a result of the research are given in detail in the results section.
continue learning. Technology has become not only an activity but also a fundamental tool. Moreover, technology becomes the core media that allows education to happen. In Iraq Blended Learning used to overcome the pandemic and counting education Therefore, the use of computers and digital applications became part of daily life and for long hours. Therefore, properly designed digital educational activities linked to social media have become a powerful educational tool aimed at finding ways of effective learning. The use of interactive activities contributed to the growth of self-learning motivation and the building of a healthy mind capable of finding a way out for the advancement of educational reality when crises occurred. It has become impossible to do without mobile devices, because of the attractive features they have and the multiple advantages they provide in teaching mathematical, medical, and engineering sciences in universities of our study relied on comparing the most important educational platforms with the best operation for managing virtual classes and the auxiliary tools they contain, including adding materials, assignments, tests, and electronic attendance records with archiving classes and migrating students to the advanced stages, as it relied on the electronic administration mechanism. All of these procedures take place through the availability of the Internet.
