Abstract

The aim of the current research is to know the effectiveness of the (Treagust) model on the achievement and intelligence of first-grade students in the middle school in mathematics. The sample of the research consisted of (68) students from Al-Ikhlas Secondary School for Girls affiliated to the Directorate of Education in Baghdad Al-Karkh Third, divided into two groups, the first group studied in the usual way. The second group was studied using the Tragest model, the researcher built a tool to measure achievement (the achievement test), and she used the intelligence test (Otis-Lennon) as a tool to measure intelligence, and by using statistical means (Levin's test, one-way analysis of variance, the statistical bag (SPSS-20). And the (Excel) program, the t-test independent sample for two unequal independent samples, the Pearson correlation coefficient to calculate the correlation, the difficulty coefficient for the items) reached the following results

- The experimental group outperformed the control group in the dimensional variable of achievement and intelligence (Otis - Lennon).

      The researcher recommended the necessity of making education meaningful for students, taking into account their needs and interests, by presenting the content in a manner consistent with the problems facing them, making them a main focus in the educational process, and giving them a major role in discussion, analysis, and developing ideas correctly, and developing their mathematical concepts for their importance in building.
