The impact of mathematics curriculum in basic education schools in the students' ability to formulate mathematical problems

Abstract

Abstract :
The teaching of various curricula has gained a great attention
from those interested in many advanced countries and those
pursing them in the felid of scientific development covered all
aspects of life, and the math curriculum has essential share no
less than other curricula of its content and methods of teaching,
for its great importance in developing the sciences. Depending
on this research is seeking for recognize the influence of
curriculum of math Dept. in the basic college of education of
the student’s ability in forming the mathematical questions for
the primary stage, through the following zero hypothesis:- there
is no difference of statistic significance at the levels
significance(0.05) between two averages the marks of the
second and forth stages for the math dept. in their ability in
forming the mathematical questions .
The research limitations are:-
1- The students of math dept. for the second and fourth
stages in the Basic Education college. Diyala University
for the Academic Year(2011-2012)
2- Seven of the mathematical questions included in the
math text book of the sixth primary stage for the academic
year( 2011-2012)
The research sample included students of Math dept. for
the second and fourth stages in the Basic Education
College- Diyala university amounted(88) he/she students
of (45) she/he students in the second stage and(43) he/she
of the forth stage.
To measure the student ability( the research sample) to
form the math questions for the primary stage , the special
test depended on the ability to form questions in light with
their kinds, and the number of test items(42) items of (6)
items for each kind of
questions, and the researcher makes sure of its
authentication and correctness, also calculating the
difficulty two coefficients and distinguishing of its items.
After applying the test and processing of data statistically
by using (T- test) for two independent samples, the

research revealed the following results:- there is difference
of statistic significance at the level of significant(0.05)
and free degree(86) between the two averages of the
second and fourth students’ marks in favor of the fourth
stage, in light of the research the researcher has reached to
a number of recommendations and suggestions
