Published: August 2022

This study aimed to detect emotions associated with achievement during classes including, anxiety, pride, shyness, pleasure, despair, anger, and boredom. These are common among high school female students in Riyadh City. The other objective was to detect cognitive processing levels among the same students. These levels include deep processing, formal study, retention of scientific facts, detailed processes. The third objective was to identify the differences in cognitive processing levels between students of high and low sense of emotions associated with achievement during classes. The last objective was to investigate the possibility of predicting cognitive processing levels of information through emotions associated with achievement during classes. The study used two scales: one for emotions associated with achievement during classes, and one for cognitive processing levels. The first was developed by Pekrun, Goetz, Titz & Perry (2002) and translated by Alwatban (2013), and the second was developed by Schmeck (1983) and translated by Al-Ghurairy (2003). These scales were applied to a sample of 523 high school female students in general education schools in Riyadh, with different levels of study and section: Arts and science. Descriptive and correlational method was used to find averages and standard deviations of the emotions associated with achievement (during classes), levels of cognitive processing, differences in cognitive processing levels which were attributed to the level of the emotions associated with achievement (during classes) using the t-test. The predictability of cognitive processing levels was verified through the emotions associated with achievement (during classes), using the analysis of multiple linear regression. The study concluded with the following results: emotions associated with achievement (during classes) common among the study sample were in order from strongest to weakest, great pride and pleasure, mild boredom and anger, weak despair, and weak shyness and anxiety. Cognitive processing levels common among high school female students were in order from strongest to weakest, retention of facts, deep processing, detailed processing and formal study. There were no differences between the low and high emotions associated with achievement during classes, which were pride and pleasure, boredom and anger, shyness and, anxiety, despair in cognitive processing levels. It was impossible to predict cognitive processing levels through the emotions associated with achievement during classes, which pride and pleasure, boredom and anger, shyness and anxiety, despair.

Published: August 2022

The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of using the blended learning strategy to increase the motivation of students in the tenth grade towards learning biology in Jordan. This study was limited to students of the tenth grade in northern Amman in the UNRWA schools in Jordan and applied to the Wadi Al-Seer Preparatory School in the second semester of the academic year 2016/2017. The study subjects were of two groups, experimental group and control group. The first group consisted of 17 members, whereas the second group consisted of 16 members. To achieve this objective, two tools were used after checking their validity and reliability. The tools were the educational material designed with the blended learning strategy and the motivation scale and the learning patterns. In order to answer the study questions, means, standard deviations and ANCOVA were calculated. The results showed there were statistically significant differences (α = 0.05) due to the effect of the teaching strategy on increasing the motivation of the experimental group, in favor of the blended learning strategy. However, there were no statistically significant differences (α = 0.05) due to the effect of interaction between the teaching strategy and learning patterns. In light of the results, a number of recommendations were presented, including the activation of the blended learning strategy in teaching biology due to its effectiveness in education. Teachers' attention should also be drawn to the need of using the blended learning strategy to benefit from its characteristics in enriching the curriculum with modern and advanced techniques.

Learning that does not enable creative thinking skills does not facilitate student learning styles. This study aims to determine the effect of the PBL learning model with the VARK approach on the creative thinking skills of Biology students. This research uses quasi-experiment. The research subject was the 58 third-semester of Bachelor’s Degree students in the Department of Biology who took the Plant Physiology course. Data analysis used a single ANCOVA. The results showed that the PBL models with the VARK approach to creative thinking skills were 0.000, which means less than 0.05. These results prove that the research hypothesis is accepted, which means that the application of the learning model has a significant effect on students' creative thinking skills. The results of the 5% on LSD further test for the difference in the results of the two classes were 86.551 for the experimental class using the PBL model with the VARK approach, and 77.828 for the control class using the PBL models without the VARK approach. These results indicate that creative thinking skills using the PBL with the VARK approach have a higher effect than the PBL model without the VARK approach. However, the PBL models with the VARK approach effect increasing the creative thinking skills.AbstrakPembelajaran yang kurang memberdayakan keterampilan berpikir kreatif tidak memfasilitasi gaya belajar mahasiswa.
