الفروق الفردية فى حل المشكلات الهندسية بين تلاميذ المرحلة الإعدادية مرتفعى ومنخفضى العبء المعرفى

Abstract

The study aimed to reveal the differences in solving Geometry problems between the high and low cognitive load (extraneous, intrinsic, and germane) of ( 92) male and female preparatory stage pupils at the third-grade. The study sample was pupils at Kafr Mansour preparatory school and Kafr Kurdie preparatory school, that were assigned to of Kafr Shukr educational administration affiliated to the Benha Directorate in Qaliubiya Governorate, in the second semester of the academic year (2020-2021 . The sample was distributed in each dimension of the cognitive load scale that was prepared by the current study researcher into two groups: the first group was the high cognitive load pupils (extraneous, intrinsic, and germane) and the second group was the low cognitive load pupils (extraneous, intrinsic, and germane); and the geometry problem solving test was applied, and the study concluded the following results:•There are statistically significant differences at the level of (0.01) between the mean scores of the high and low extraneous cognitive load pupils of the preparatory stage in solving geometry problems in favor of the low extraneous cognitive load.•There are statistically significant differences at the level of (0.01) between the mean scores of the high and low intrinsic cognitive load pupils of the preparatory stage in solving geometry problems in favor of the low intrinsic cognitive load.•There are statistically significant differences at the level of (0.01) between the mean scores of the high and low germane cognitive load pupils of the preparatory stage in solving geometry problems in favor of the high germane cognitive load.
