Abstract:

The current study aimed to identify the effect of using the guided imagination strategy on developing the achievement of ninth grade female students in the subject of Social Studies. 

In order to achieve this, the researcher used the experimental approach with a semi-experimental design, and the study tool was relied on, which was an achievement test for a  unit entitled as "A Changing and Diverse World" from the ninth grade Social Studies book, after verifying its validity and reliability. The study sample consisted of (42) ninth grade students, who were divided into two groups (the experimental group, and the control group), and each group consisted of (21) students; the experimental group was taught using the guided imagination strategy, and the control group was taught normally. The results of the study showed that there are differences in favor of the female students who studied using the guided imagination strategy (the experimental group) compared to the female students who studied using the traditional method. The study also recommended the need to hold workshops on how to prepare and apply the guided imagination strategy and urge social studies teachers to attend these workshops and train them on how to use them in teaching different levels of students.

Keywords: guided imagination strategy, achievement development, ninth grade students, social studies
