Abstract

The current research aims to identify the effect of the idea filtering strategy on the achievement of second-intermediate school female students in science. The two researchers adopted the experimental method and the experimental design with partial control in the two groups (experimental group and control group). The two researchers applied the research experience to a sample of students of the second intermediate grade in the school Martyrs of (Jiser  Al Aimma for Girls) affiliated with the Baghdad Education Directorate / Rusafa /1 for the academic year (2021/2022), which was chosen intentionally. The number of female students in the research sample was (70) students, with (35) students for the experimental group that will be studied according to the idea filtering strategy, and (35) female students for the control group that will study according to the traditional method. The two research groups were subjected to the following variables: Chronological age in months, IQ test (Raven), and test of previous knowledge. the two researchers determined the scientific material that they will teach students in the experimental and control groups, which were chapters seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth of the science subject that should be taught to the second- intermediate grade for the academic year (2021/2022). The two researchers formulated (201) behavioral objectives categorized according to the four levels of Bloom’s classification in the cognitive domain (remember, comprehension, application, and analysis). The two researchers prepared daily teaching plans, (24) plans for the experimental group according to the idea filtering strategy, and (24) plans for the control group according to the traditional method. The achievement test prepared by the two researchers on the subject of science consisted of (40) items, (36) of which are multiple-choice and (4) articles distributed among the four levels of Bloom’s classification in the cognitive domain. To analyze the results, the data was collected and then processed statistically through the statistical group (SPSS). The result revealed that Adopting the strategy of filtering ideas in teaching science has a significant impact on raising the level of academic achievement of the experimental group students compared to the students of the control group.
