“…The scientific and technological progress, the great informational acceleration, the rapid increase in the applications of human knowledge, and human innovations bear witness to the role of thinking and innovation (Samawi et al, 2020). Competition between peoples and nations has become a competition of information and inventions in various fields (Berg et al, 2021).…”

Aim: The present research sought at investigating the effectiveness of a training program on the basis of Betts’ model of autonomous learner on improving the creativity product among a sample of gifted 10th grade female students. Method: This was a quasi-experimental study that included a sample of 68 gifted 10th grade female students from King Abdullah II School for Excellence. The students were randomized into a control group (n=34) that received traditional teaching and an experimental group (n=34) that was subjected to the training program based on Betts’ model of autonomous learner. The creative product semantic scale was adopted to perform a pre- and post-assessment of the students’ creative projects (a telescope). The data gathered in this study was analyzed using the statistical package of social sciences. Results: The findings of the study showed that there was significant statistical differences in the experimental group creativity product between pre- (3.18±0.73) and post-training assessment (5.81±0.70), (t=15.1628, p≤0.05). Conclusion: The study ended up with that the training program based on Betts’ model of autonomous learner had a statistically significant positive effect on improving gifted students’ creativity products. The study recommends adopting the concepts of learning autonomy in teaching gifted students and designing various training programs aiming to improve the creativity capacities of the gifted students.

“…When the mind glows, the march of human civilisation begins and its flame goes out, but when its lustre fades, civilisation begins to crumble, fall and collapse (Samawi et al, 2020). Building the nation's civilisation requires appealing to the mind and drawing inspiration in its goal, because the mind is the beginning and expert of human civilisation (Swanson, 2022) .…”

The study aimed to reveal the level of mind habits among students majoring in mathematics at Al-Balqa Applied University and its relationship to some variables. The researcher used the descriptive analytical method and developed the habits of mind scale prepared by Al-Qahtani, which consists of 50 items, and applied it to a study sample consisting of 143 male and female students who were randomly selected from different academic levels in the mathematics department at the university. The results of the study showed that the mind habits of students majoring in mathematics at Al-Balqa Applied University was at a moderate positive degree, and there were statistically significant differences in the habits of mind among students majoring in mathematics at Al-Balqa Applied University concerning the gender variable, in favour of females, and there were significant statistical differences concerning the academic level variable, in favour of the master’s students. In addition, in light of the results of the study, the researcher presented a set of recommendations. Keywords: Mind habits, university students, cross-sectional, Jordan

“…There are classroom practices that develop students' ingenuity, such as giving students tasks that develop their mathematical skills and make them participate positively and engage in work that requires data collection, reading texts, using intuition and justification, and needs to stimulate students' motivation and enthusiasm for learning, such as using gamification in teaching (Samawi et al, 2020), as it requires the teacher builds a blueprint for linking previous information and experiences with subsequent experiences, and asks questions that challenge students' thinking and encourage them to work as cooperative groups in which each person supports the other and considers the success of his colleague as part of his own success (Hawari and Noor, 2020;Calabrese Barton et al, 2021).…”

AimThe present study aimed at investigating the association of the mathematical proficiency and mathematical thinking skills among female teachers of the first three grades in public schools of Amman city, Jordan.MethodThe study adopted the descriptive analytical research approach. A sample of 174 female teachers of the first three grades was recruited in the present study. To collect data, the study used a mathematical proficiency tests (39 items) covering the domains of the conceptual understanding, procedural fluency, strategic competency, adaptive reasoning, and the productive desire. In addition, the study used a mathematical thinking skills test consisted of (20) items distributed over seven mathematical thinking skills; they were: Induction skill, conclusion skill, symbolizing skill, logical thinking skill, guessing skill, demonstration skill, and modeling skill. Data were analyzed using SPSS software (v. 26).ResultsThe study findings showed that female teachers of the first three grades had a moderate level of mathematical proficiency (43.60 ± 16.04), a good level of mathematical thinking skills (6.51 ± 4.628). In addition, the study found significant statistical positive correlation between mathematical proficiency and mathematical thinking skills (r = 0.681, p ≤ 0.05) among female teachers of the first three grades in Amman.ConclusionThe study concluded that mathematical proficiency is significantly associated with mathematical thinking skills in their domains. The study recommended increasing female teachers’ competencies and skills related to mathematical proficiency and mathematical thinking throughout intensive courses and workshops.
