The Effect of Cognitive Modeling in Mathematics Achievement and Creative Intelligence for High School Students

Abstract

To identify the impact of the cognitive modeling in mathematics achievement, creative intelligence for secondary school students during the 2022/2023 academic year. To achieve the aim of research, the researchers adopted the experimental research method with two groups (experimental; control) with a post-test. Community of research was identified, which represented by the students of second intermediate grade /first KED. (70) male students were intentionally chosen as a sample study, and they were divided into two groups: an experimental who were taught according to the cognitive modeling, and the other was a control group who were studied according to the usual method. Equivalence was made between the two groups in chronological age, level of intelligence, and previous achievement in mathematics. For the purpose of collecting data for the experiment, an achievement test was built in its final form (20) and also the creative intelligence test out of (25) of test paragraph from thematic type for both of them. Appropriate statistical analyzes were carried out, besides done making sure of the psychometric properties for the two tests. Based on the findings, students of experimental group who studied according to cognitive modeling excelled over those who studied by the traditional.
