The Effect of Using the Refective Learning Strategy in Developing Analytical Thinking and Science Skills Among Seventh Grade Students and their satisfaction with Learning

Abstract

The study aims to investigate the effect of refective learning in analytical thinking and students' results; and to what extent the seventh graders are satisfed with the learning in Jordan. The experimental research approach was used on sample of the study includes )74( students who were chosen randomly in two groups. The frst group (37 students) was taught by using refective learning strategy; while the second group )37 students( was taught by using the traditional teaching strategy. The study used the analytical thinking test to examine the students` results and their satisfaction with the curriculum. It also used the )T - test(. Besides, the analytical descriptive statistics were used to test and analyze the variances between the two groups. The results of the study demonstrated the considerable impact of refective learning strategy. There were signifcant variances of (a=0.05) between the averages of students’ grades in the two samples of the study.
