| Abstract | ||
| This research aims to determine how effective it is to add some real-life examples into mathematics curriculum teaching on academic achievement level in mathematics for preparatory school stage. Because of the lack of real-life mathematics applications examples in some lessons in the preparatory schools’ mathematics curriculum and using the traditional method in teaching that led to only memorize the mathematical concepts and arithmetic operations by heart without understanding. The researchers used the analytical descriptive curriculum and the experimental curriculum with a quasi-experimental design of one experimental group for the first and second preparatory grades. The research population was selected from the students of the first and second grades of preparatory school at Martyr Mohamed Ahmed Lotfy El Ashry Integrated Language School, Heliopolis Educational Zone in Cairo Governorate. Two research samples were randomly selected from (99) students in the first preparatory grade, and (120) students in the second preparatory grade, and each of them studied mathematics according to the traditional method (control group) and using learning based on mathematics applications in life (experimental group). Two tests will be given as part of the research for the first and second grades preparatory students: pre-test on the control group and post-test on the experimental group. In this research, we applied two achievement tests in mathematics to verify the effect of the proposed teaching method. The research results explained that there is statistically significant difference in the mathematical achievement level between the control and experimental groups for the first and second grades preparatory students in favor of the experimental group. The research concludes that the learning based on real-life applications of mathematics has a positive effect on their academic achievement level in mathematics for the first and second grades preparatory students. The research recommends increasing awareness about the importance of mathematics applications in real life and creating new learning methods to link between the applications and our real life. | ||
