dc.descriptionThis study investigates and describes the effects of the School Based-Cooperative Problem-Based Learning (SB-CPBL) module in science teaching on the Jordanian middle-school students' achievement in science, problem-solving skills, and attitudes toward learning science. The present research went into two phases respectively; the first is adapting the SB-CPBL model and developing its corresponding module, while the second is practical experimentation aimed to examine the treatment effects of the SB-CPBL module towards improving science achievement, problem-solving skills, and attitudes toward learning science amongst male and female science 8th-grade students in Jordanian middle-schools. A quasi-experimental approach with a non-equivalent control group pre-test/post-test design was employed. 120 eighth-graders, divided into two groups, were involved in this study. Two groups (60 students, 27 males, and 33 females) were designated as the experimental group; they used the SB-CPBL module for six weeks, while two groups (60 students, 26 males, and 34 females) were designated as the control group and taught conventionally. Wood's Instructional Design (ID) was adapted and used to construct the SB-CPBL module employed in this study. Three research instruments; the science achievement test, Lin's Problem-Solving Skills Scale, and The Lesotho Attitude towards Learning Science Test were validated, piloted tested, and administered twice; prior to and immediately after the treatment to quantitatively measure the dependent variables. Descriptive and inferential analyses were used (t-test, ANOVA, and MANOVA) to examine the differences between groups. To further enrich the study, students and the teacher who are involved in the treatment group were interviewed and asked about their perception of using the SB-CPBL module and to provide feedback on the module implementation. The SB-CPBL module that incorporates the CL elements into the typical cycle of PBL was proven suitable for the school environment and its specific settings. It has been found that there were statistically significant differences between control and experimental groups in favour of the experimental group for the three dependent variables; students' achievement in science, problem-solving skills, and attitudes towards learning science. When the experimental and control group was compared based on the achievement levels (high and low), the results confirmed significant differences in problem-solving skills and insignificant differences in students' achievement in science and attitudes towards learning science. Also, insignificant differences were found in the three dependent variables when the experimental group was compared to the control group based on students' gender. The results concluded the effectiveness of the SB-CPBL module in improving students' achievement in science, problem-solving skills, and attitudes towards learning science among students in Jordan.,Ph.D-
