Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of teaching math subject using interactive video games on the fifth grade students ’achievement. This study was conducted in one basic private school in Jordan. It used a quasi- experimental control group design. Interactive video games software was developed to investigate the difference between the two groups that were given a pre-test and a post-test to measure their achievements in math. The results of the study showed that the learning environment in math using interactive video games have a positive effect on fifth grade students' math achievements. The study showed a progress on the part of the experimental group which used interactive video games software. It was reflected positively in the fifth grade students’ achievement in math.

الملخص

هدفت هذه الدراسة إلى استقصاء أثر تدريس مادة الرياضيات باستخدام ألعاب الفيديو التفاعلية في تحصيل طلبة الصف الخامس. وقد أجريت هذه الدراسة في إحدى المدارس الأساسية الخاصة في الأردن، وقد استخدمت الدراسة التصميم شبه التجريبي لتحقيق أهداف الدراسة. تم استخدام وتطوير برنامج حاسوبي تفاعلي باستخدام ألعاب الفيديو، لمعرفة الفروق بين المجموعتين التجريبية والضابطة في تحصيلهم في مادة الرياضيات، بعد أن أخضعت المجموعتان لاختبارين قبلي وبعدي. وقد أظهرت نتائج الدراسة أنّ بيئة التعلم وفق ألعاب الفيديو التفاعلية قد تركت أثرا إيجابيا في تحصيل طلبة الصف الخامس في الرياضيات ولصالح المجموعة التجريبية، حيث أظهرت الدراسة تطورا ملحوظا في أداء المجموعة التجريبية باستخدام ألعاب الفيديو التفاعلية والذي كان له الأثر الإيجابي في تحصيلهم في مادة الرياضيات.
