The role of the project method in improving academic achievement in science among grade1students Fourth grade from teachers' point of view

Abstract

The current research aims to show the degree to which teachers apply the project method by science teachers in Wasit schools. And to clarify the degree to which students benefit from applying the project method in achieving better academic results. This is done through the descriptive approach by applying a questionnaire of (30) statements distributed over three axes, which the researcher applied to a sample of (60) science teachers for the fourth grade, who were randomly selected and applied in Wasit city schools. The study concluded that the application of the project method by teachers is closely related to raising the academic achievement of fourth grade students in science. The research results also showed through the average responses of the sample studied that the extent to which the teacher applies the project method has a positive impact on improving academic achievement among fourth grade students in science, and that some modern strategies may affect raising the level of academic achievement among students. No statistically significant differences were found according to the variable of gender, academic qualification, and number of years of experience for students
