Level of inductive thinking among the Students of Mathematic Department in Basic Education College at AL Mustansiriyah University

Abstract

     The search aimed to know the level of inductive thinking among the students of mathematic department in Basic Education College at AL Mustansiriyah University , so if there are differences between both stages and know if there is development of inductive thinkin .The researcher has described four hypotheses  to construct  this ames . The sample of the research has consisted of ( 272 ) students divided to ( 127 ) male students – ( 145 ) female students from the mathematic department - morning study in Basic Education College at AL Mustansiriyah University for the academic year 2014 – 2015  and has been divided into the fourth stage . The researcher has used descriptive research . and adopted test to know  the level of inductive thinking , development consisted of ( 24 ) items multiple choices-four choices , the result ranges from (0.62– 0.85),and reliability  0.76). After applying the tests and processing the data statistically using (z,t) test and two samples , the result has showed :1- There is a reduction of  the level of inductive thinking among all the students of the research sample .2- The achievement of the male students is higher than that of the female students , in a inductive thinking in mathematical .3- There is statistically significant differences among all the students  in a inductive thinking in mathematical department according to stage variable .4- The achievement of the fourth stage (all , male and female) students is higher than that of the first stage students in a inductive thinking in mathematical department , this means that there is a development in the inductive thinking of the students.
