The Impact of the Use of Unorganized Instigation Method on Acquisition of History for the Second Intermediate Students

Abstract

The approach commonly used in teaching history is indoctrination and imitation; this approach widens the gap between the teacher and the student: the teacher's role is positive for he explains, illustrates and conveys ideas whereas the student's role is negative for he receives, memorizes, and remembers what has been memorized in the exam. This contradicts what the modern education calls for in activating the student's role in the education process; this requires searching for uncommon, modern teaching methods among which is the unorganized instigation method that helps student overcome the various difficulties they face in learning history such as comprehending the historical events and their explanations and holding comparisons among these events. In this respect, the student has an active role in analyzing and comprehending the historical events which is something that goes with the principles of modern education which focus on the student's role and the use of teaching aids. This method leads to the intended aims because it involves the elements of instigation, motivation, and joy. The current research aims at recognizing (the impact of the use of unorganized instigation method on acquisition of history for the second intermediate students).
