AbstractThe current research was conducted with the aim of investigating the effect of electronic content and workshop teaching on learning and memorization of the fourth grade experimental science course. The research method in terms of practical purpose and in terms of information gathering method was a pre-test-post-test quasi-experimental design with a control group. The statistical population of this research included all fourth grade students of Paveh city in 1401. The statistical sample consisted of 36 students (18 girls and 18 boys) of the fourth grade of Paveh city, who were selected by available sampling method. The data collection tool was a researcher-made questionnaire for learning and memorization of the fourth grade experimental science course. Also, two approaches of electronic education (6 sessions of 45 minutes three times a week) and workshop teaching approach (6 sessions of 45 minutes three times a week) were implemented on the experimental group. To analyze the data, multivariate covariance analysis and independent t tests were used. The results showed that electronic content and teaching in the workshop method have a significant effect on learning and memorization of the fourth grade experimental science course. And according to the findings of the research and the role of electronic content and workshop teaching in learning and memorization of the fourth grade experimental science lesson, it is suggested that these two educational methods be used by teachers in teaching science lessons.

The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of students’ electronic content on the high-level learning motivation and efficiency in the first grade of elementary school in the science course. The research method was quasi-experimental with pretest-posttest design and control group. The population of this pseudo-experimental study with pre-test, post-test, and control group, was all the girls in the seventh grade of 1395-96 school year. The sampling method was simple randomized cluster and the sample size was 58 (29 in experimental group, and 29 in control group). Data were gathered using Harter’s educational motivation questionnaire and a researcher-made high-level learning efficiency test. The experimental group produced digital course content using PowerPoint software. Control group learned by the simple method and speeches. Analyzing the research, descriptive statistics (frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, tables, and graphs) and inferential statistics (covariance analysis, Leven, and Kolmogorov–Smirnov tests) were used. The results showed that in the first main hypothesis, i.e. the effects of electronic content produced by students on their motivation, there was no significant difference in (internal and external) motivation between the control group and experimental group (p=0.40). In the second main hypothesis, i.e. the effect of electronic content produced by students on their high-level learning outcomes, there was a significant difference between high-level learning outcomes in the experimental and control groups (p<0.05). It could be concluded in general, engaging the learners in producing the electronic content will increase their high-level learning efficiencies.
