| Popis: | The study aims at finding out the impact of metacognition strategies in the teaching of mathematics in developing creative thinking among gifted primary school students in Rafha province in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. They are defined in this study as the students whose IQ score is (120 and above) according to the Wakslar measurement for children intelligence and are selected by their teachers. The study sample consists of 40 male and female students from the fifth class in the primary stage. They were divided randomly into two groups; experimental group which was taught by the methods and strategies of the suggested teaching program and a control group upon whom the ordinary method was applied. Each group included 20 male and female students. For the purpose of the study, a creative thinking measurement in mathematics, designed by the researchers, was used for data collecting. The program was implemented for three successive weeks, three sessions per week each one lasting for one period. After finishing the program, a post measurement was conducted for all the study variables for both the experimental and control groups. The results show statistically significant differences at the significance level (0.05) between using the metacognition strategies on one hand and the ordinary method on the other. The differences were in favor of the metacognition strategies. |
