The Effectiveness Of Using The Dunn And Dunn Model In Teaching The Unit Of Regular Fractions For Fifth-Grade Primary Students In Developing Achievement And Mathematical Intuition Skills

Abstract

The current study aimed to reveal the effectiveness of using the Dunn and Dunn model in teaching the unit of regular fractions for fifth-grade primary students in developing achievement and mathematical intuition skills. The study sample was tested from fifth grade students in the first semester of Mosa ben Nosier school at Tabuk City, and they (30 students) were divided into two district groups; the first half (15 students) were allocated into the experimental group and the other half (15 students)  made up the control group. After preparing and utilizing the instruments, the results of the research revealed  the following: statistic between the mean scores of students of the experimental and control groups in the cognitive achievement test related to the unit of regular fractions in the first semester in favor of the average of the students of the experimental group, as it was found that there was a statistically significant difference at the level (0.01) between the average scores of students of the experimental group in the pre and post applications in the achievement test Cognitive, and in favor of the mean of post-application. The results also demonstrated that there were statistically significant differences between the control group and the experimental group in the mathematical intuition test as a whole, and in its components in the post-application for the benefit of the experimental group. Furthermore, the results indicated that to and statistically significant differences between the pre application and post application of the experimental group in the sport as a whole test intuition, and in its components in favor of the dimensional application, and in light of the results, this current study presents a number of recommendations as Encouraging math teachers to use the Dunn and Dunn model of learning styles to develop students' achievement and mathematical skills.
