Recent research has shown the need to present knowledge to students in a manner consistent with the
characteristics of the human brain, especially during learning mathematics, which contributes to the
development of achievement and inductive reasoning. The current study aimed to develop achievement and
inductive reasoning by employing brain-compatible learning theory in teaching and learning mathematics
for sixth-grade students in Oman. The sample included (74) students, who were divided into two equal
groups: experimental and control. Study data were collected using mathematical achievement tests and
inductive reasoning. There were significant differences between the two groups in the post-application of
the achievement and inductive reasoning tests in favor of the experimental group, which indicates that
teaching mathematics according to the theory of learning compatible with the brain had a significant
impact on the development of achievement and inductive reasoning among the participants. The study
recommended the need to develop and teach mathematics curricula in a way that allows for the practice of
many activities and exercises that contribute to the development of students’ achievement and inductive
reasoning skills. |
