Abstract

This study aimed to examine the effect of an educational program based on social learning on the acquisition of national and citizenship education concepts among tenth-grade students in Jordan. The study sample consisted of 68 students from Prince Muhammad Secondary School, affiliated with the Directorate of Education in Al-Jafr, during the 2019/2020 academic year. The sample was divided into an experimental group (33 students) and a control group (35 students). A concepts scale and a guide for implementing the educational program based on social learning were developed, and their validity and reliability were confirmed. ANCOVA was used for data analysis. The results showed that the educational program based on social learning had a significant effect on the acquisition of national and citizenship education concepts among tenth-grade students in Jordan. Based on this finding, the researchers recommend developing educational programs based on social learning to teach social studies across all grade levels.
