اثر استخدام برنامج تدريبي مستند الى نظرية الحل الابداعي للمشكلات ( تريز) في تنمية التفكير الرياضي والتفكير الناقد لدى طلبة الصف التاسع الاساسي في الاردن

This study aims at examining the effects of using a training program based on TRIZ Theory on the development of mathematical thinking and critical thinking of ninth graders in UNRWA Schools. The sample of the study consisted of 51 female students, representing the experimental group that was exposed to the training program, and the control group that was subjected to teaching, using the traditional method. After completing the program, a mathematical thinking test and a critical thinking test were applied; ANCOVA was used to answer the study questions. The study results revealed that there were statistically significant differences at the significant level α=0.05 on the mathematical thinking test and the critical thinking test between the two groups in favor of the experimental group. In addition, there were statistically significant differences due to the achievement level in favor of the experimental group, in comparison with the control group, on the mathematical thinking test and the critical thinking test, in the three levels of achievement: high, average, and low. The study recommended applying TRIZ theory in teaching mathematics. (Published abstract)
