The effect of using the science stations strategy on the achievement of second grade intermediate students and their attitudes towards physics

Abstract

The paper aims at identifying The Impact of Delineating Scientific
Stations on the Achievement of Second Intermediate Students and their
Inclination towards Physics via testing the two following hypotheses:
There are no statistically significant differences on the level of (0.05)
between the scores mean of the experimental group students who are
taught according to the scientific stations strategy and the average scores
of the controlling group students who are taught in the traditional
method in the achievement test.
There are no statistically significant differences on the level of (0.05)
between the scores mean of the experimental group students who are
taught according to the scientific stations strategy and the average scores
of the controlling group students who are taught in the traditional
method on the inclination towards physics scale.
The experiment is conducted on second intermediate students in
Shuhadaa Elislam (Martyrs of Islam) Secondary school/ Diyala Province
in the academic year 2012-2013. Sample of the study comprised of (60)
students who are set into two equal groups; experimental and controlling
groups, of (30) students each. A match between the two groups is made
in terms of intelligence and age in months.
For the sake of verifying the study hypotheses, the researcher has set
an achievement test for both groups. The test is of (30) objective MCQ
