The Effect of Teaching Using Blended Learning on the Achievement of 10th- Grade Students in the Computer Course

The study aims to explore the effect of teaching using blended learning on the achievement of 10 th -grade students in the computer subject in Jordan. The study sample consists of two purposely selected sections: the experimental group with (26) male and female students and the control group with (26) male and female students. An achievement test consisting of (20) questions is prepared, and the validity and reliability of the instrument are verified. To answer the study questions, the arithmetic means, the standard deviations for the study sample, along with the analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) are calculated. The results show that there is a statistically significant difference among the means of the levels of academic achievement due to the variable of the teaching method and for the benefit of the experimental group taught using blended learning. The study recommends generalizing the experience of using the blended learning strategy applied to students of computer course on various subjects, taking advantage of the positive effect of using the strategy of blended learning in increasing the student’s achievement.
