Abstract
Abstract:
The research aims to identify the effectiveness of the Wallace model in the achievement of fifth-grade literary students in history and their intelligent thinking. The researcher adopted the experimental method with an experimental design for two equivalent groups. The researcher randomly selected (Saffin Secondary School for Boys) distributed into two sections (A, B). Section (A) was randomly selected to represent the experimental group and the number of its students was (35). In the same way, Section (B) was selected to represent the control group and the number of its students was (36). The research sample in them amounted to (71) students. The researcher statistically rewarded the students of the two groups in the following variables: (chronological age calculated in months, prior information test, Raven intelligence test, intelligent thinking). The researcher defined the subject of study with topics from the history book for the fifth-grade literary. Then the researcher formulated behavioral objectives, the number of which amounted to (135) behavioral objectives representing the six cognitive levels of Bloom’s classification in the cognitive field. As for the research tools, the researcher intended to build the achievement test, which consisted of (40) objective test paragraphs of the multiple-choice type with four alternatives according to (the specifications table), and the validity, discrimination coefficient, difficulty, effectiveness of alternatives and reliability were verified; and its reliability was verified by the split-half method; and the intelligent thinking scale, which consisted of (56) paragraphs, and the researcher used appropriate statistical methods to extract the data, and the results showed the superiority of the students of the experimental group over the students of the control group in the achievement test and the intelligent thinking scale
