Abstract

Objective: The present survey aims to study the effect of teaching the meta-cognitive program of Panoura and Philippou on the improvement of problem- solving performance, the students’ meta- cognitive knowledge and skill of students with a disability of math learning. Method: Methodology has been empirical. The statistical population of this survey was all the students of the4th grade of elementary schools in Najaf Abad in 2010-2011who had a disability of math learning. To do this survey, 20 students with a disability of math learning were selected and assigned to an experimental and a control group (n1=10 and n2=10). The tools used included a meta-cognition questionnaire of Panoura and Philippou, the checklist of math disorder diagnosis of Tabrizi, Raven intelligence scale and a math academic performance test. Intervention related to teaching the meta-cognition program of Panoura and Philippou was applied on the experimental group. The data obtained have been analyzed by using a statistical method of co-variance. Results: The results of co- variance analysis showed that there is a significant difference (P 0.01) between the average grades in pre-test and post-test. Conclusion and recommendations: Altogether, the findings of this survey indicate that teaching the meta-cognition program of Panoura and Philippou is effective on problem- solving performance and the metacognition knowledge and skill of students with a disability of learning. It is suggested that the use of teaching Panoura& Philippou's meta -cognitive program can be considered as a useful method for program- solving problems in student's with math learning disability.
