The effectiveness of the delegate's mobile strategy in collecting biology and motivation in the fourth grade

Abstract

        The aim of the  present research is to find out the effctiveness of Roving Reporter  strategy  in the students' achievement  of the four-grade  science in biology and their     achievement  motivation through investigating the following two hypotheses:

1-There is no statistically  significant difference in the  significance level of  (0.05) between the average scores of the experimental group students who will be  taught  by Roving Reporter strategy and the average scores of the control group students   who will be taught by the same material by the traditional method  in the biology achievement  test.

2-There is no statistically  significant difference in the  significance level of  (0.05) between the average scores of the experimental group students who will be  taught  byRoving Reporter  strategy and the average scores of the control group students  who will be taught the same material by the traditional method  intheachievement motivation scale.

     The sample of the research consisted of (60) students of four-grade science from Abe dharr Al-Ghafary  preparatory in the city baghdad Rusafa- three  for the school year(2016-2017) and this school to apply this experience. Students selected randomly into two groups each group consists of (30) students. Both group were equivalent in number of variables such as: Achievement motivation.

 At investigating the hypotheses، the research is built on an achievement test that consists of (32) items، (29) items of a multiple-choice type and (3) items of essay question، The validity and reliability are checked. The researcher adopted the scale of(Al-Janaby،2013) to measure the study achievement motivation after checked by a group of experts to make the suitable changes

according to the  validity and reliability.

   At the final the scale consists of (50) items. After the implementation of experiment in second course for the study Year of (2017-2016) from the researcher and his research groups according to study plans that prepared. The researcher applied  the achievement test and measure the study achievement motivation for the two groups  experimental and control .The data was processed statistically by using(T-test) for equal to two independent samples .The results showed superiority of the experimental group students who studied according to Roving Reporter strategy on the control group students who studied by the traditional method in variables of study achievement and achievement motivation.

   In the light of the results the researcher concluded that the Roving Reporter strategy has positive effect in biology achievement and achievement motivation.

According to these resells ،the researcher has some recommendations and suggestions sac has :to use Roving Reporter strategy to teach mathematics and make more studies  that use the active learning strategy in other variables that not contained in this study.
