Abstract

The present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the effectiveness of virtual teaching of math lessons on self-efficacy, creative thinking and responsibility of eighth grade female students. The research method was semi-experimental. The target population of this research included all eighth grade students in Karaj city in the academic year of 1401-1402. A staged cluster sampling method was used and 30 students from one of the schools that were randomly selected were randomly replaced in two experimental and control groups.The intervention program was implemented with the virtual training of mathematics lessons for the experimental group during eight sessions, The obtained data were analyzed at the level of descriptive statistics by calculating the mean and standard deviation and at the level of inferential statistics of covariance analysis that the scores of the variables of self-efficacy, creative thinking and responsibility of the students in the experimental group and the control group were statistically at the level of (P>0.05) had a significant difference. The results of the research showed that the virtual teaching of math lesson was effective on the self-efficacy, creative thinking and responsibility of the students of the experimental group, and the virtual teaching of the math lesson had a significant effect on the sub-scales of self-efficacy, creative thinking and responsibility of the students. Therefore, it is necessary that the use of information technology with the design of different software for teaching math lessons in different levels of education should be taken into consideration by educational officials and planners.
