The current study aims at detecting the effectiveness of a teaching-learning program based on cognitive load strategies in the achievement of students in the fifth literary subject of Islamic education and the development of their open thinking. The experimental design with partial control was chosen for two equal groups. The researcher intentionally chose Saad Secondary School for Boys, in Salah Al-Deen Governorate, as a field of experiment. The research sample consisted of (60) students, who were distributed randomly, by (30) students for each group. Equivalence was conducted in the variables (the chronological age of the students, the grades of the last year of the subject of Islamic education, the tribal open-mindedness test). The researcher prepared an achievement test and an open-mindedness test. A statistically significant difference was found between the means of the two research groups in achievement, in favor of the experimental group, as well as the presence of a statistically significant difference between the mean of the two research groups in the pre- and post-test of the open-mindedness test and in favor of the post-test.
