The effect of electronic content and workshop method teaching on learning and memorization of the fourth grade experimental science course

AbstractThe current research was conducted with the aim of investigating the effect of electronic content and workshop teaching on learning and memorization of the fourth grade experimental science course. The research method in terms of practical purpose and in terms of information gathering method was a pre-test-post-test quasi-experimental design with a control group. The statistical population of this research included all fourth grade students of Paveh city in 1401. The statistical sample consisted of 36 students (18 girls and 18 boys) of the fourth grade of Paveh city, who were selected by available sampling method. The data collection tool was a researcher-made questionnaire for learning and memorization of the fourth grade experimental science course. Also, two approaches of electronic education (6 sessions of 45 minutes three times a week) and workshop teaching approach (6 sessions of 45 minutes three times a week) were implemented on the experimental group. To analyze the data, multivariate covariance analysis and independent t tests were used. The results showed that electronic content and teaching in the workshop method have a significant effect on learning and memorization of the fourth grade experimental science course. And according to the findings of the research and the role of electronic content and workshop teaching in learning and memorization of the fourth grade experimental science lesson, it is suggested that these two educational methods be used by teachers in teaching science lessons.
