Abstract

This study aimed to reveal the effectiveness of applying a proposed educational program based on infographics in teaching geography on developing spatial thinking skills for tenth grade students in Jordan. To achieve the purpose of the study, the two researchers prepared a spatial thinking exam, and a proposed educational program based on infographics for teaching geography for the tenth grade, and the validity and reliability of the study tools were verified. The sample of the study consisted of (70) students, where they were randomly distributed into two groups: experimental group, and control group and each consisted of (35) students. The researchers applied the guide of the proposed educational program based on infographics in teaching geography for the experimental group, while the conventional way was used for the control group. The  results of the study revealed that there is a statistically significant effect of applying the proposed educational program based on infographics in teaching geography on developing spatial thinking skills among the tenth grade students in Jordan. The researchers recommended applying the proposed educational program based on infographics in teaching geography to develop spatial thinking skills among the tenth-grade students in Jordan.
