The Efficiency of Using Fernald's Approach on the Attainment and Memorization of the Students of the Second Intermediate Grade in the Subject of Arabic Grammar

Abstract

This study aims at investigating The Efficiency of Using Fernald's Approach on the Attainment and memorization of the Students of the Second Intermediate Grade in the Subject of Arabic Grammar through investigating the validity of the following hypotheses:1.There is no statistically significant difference on the function level (0.05) in the scores of post-test between the experimental group who studied using Fernald's approach and the control group who studied using the conventional way.2. There is no statistically significant difference on the function level (0.05) in the scores of the memorization between the experimental group who studied using Fernald's approach and the control group who studied using the conventional way. The researcher deliberately chose Al Nasir Bin Asim Intermediate as a sample. Two sections were chosen randomly: section (A) (as a control group and section (B) as an experimental group with (32) students each. The researcher balanced the two groups in the following variables:a.Pre-test of previous information.b.Age in months.c.The scores of the first semester in the academic year 2016-2017.After using the statistical devices, the researcher did not find statistically significant differences between the study groups. He prepared the behavioral aims that finally reached (67) aims with (80%) agreement among the jury of experts. He also prepared teaching plans, pretest, and posttest and presented them to experts who agreed on them with (80%).The researcher used the following statistical devices: t-test for two independent samples, Pearson correlation coefficient, Spearman coefficient. The results showed the prevalence of the experimental group who studied Arabic grammar using Fernald's approach on the control group who studied the subject using the conventional way.
