The Effectiveness Of Employing The Magnet Poles Strategy In Developing Exploratory Thinking Among Second- Intermediate Class Female Students

The research aims to study the effectiveness of employing the "Magnet Poles" strategy in developing exploratory thinking among second-intermediate female students. The research sample was selected from students at Al-Kholoud Girls' Secondary School in Babil Governorate/Al-Hashimiyah District. The sample included two groups: the experimental group, which numbered (33) students, and the control group, which numbered (34) students. I adopted an experimental approach with partial control for the two equivalent groups, taking into account the application of the independent variable (the "Magnet Poles" strategy) to the experimental group, while the control group followed the traditional method. Equivalence between the two groups was determined based on several variables: (chronological time, academic achievement, intelligence, experience, and the exploratory thinking test after implementing the experiment). The effectiveness of the strategy was measured using exploratory thinking tests as a research tool. The results showed a clear superiority of the experimental group in exploratory thinking compared to the control group, which illustrates the effective impact of the "Magnet Poles" strategy in enhancing exploratory thinking skills among female students.
