The Impact of the Strategy of Cooperative Integration of Fragmented Information in the Acquisition of Physical Concepts and Science Processes among Fourth Scientific Students

Abstract

The current research aims to reveal the impact of the strategy of cooperative integration of fragmented information in the acquisition of physical concepts and science processes among fourth scientific students through the null hypotheses:

1- There is no statistically significant difference at the level of significance (0.05) between the average grades of female students of the experimental group studying physics according to the strategy of cooperative integration of fragmented information and those who follow the traditional method in the test of acquiring physical concepts.

2-There is no statistically significant difference at the level of indication (0.05) between the average grades of female students of the experimental group studying physics according to the strategy of cooperative integration of fragmented information and those who follow the traditional method in the test of science processes. The research community is determined by all the students of the fourth grade in the secondary schools of the Directorate General of Karkh Education\1 for the academic year (2018-2019). As for the sample, two classes collected from al-Anfal High School for girls. The sample was randomly distributed in (36) Students as experimental groups and (33) students as a control group. The researcher prepared all the requirements of the experiment (behavioral purposes, teaching plans, testing the acquisition of physical concepts, and testing the processes of science). The teachers under the supervision of the researcher taught the two research groups. The experiment lasted for (12) weeks. The results showed a statistically significant difference between the averages of the two groups in the concept acquisition test and for the benefit of the experimental group. On the other hand, the results did not show a significant difference in Statistics between the averages of the two groups in the science processes test. Based on the results of the experiment, the researcher came out with a number of recommendations and suggestions.
