Abstract

The current study aimed to measure the effect of productive failure in the digital investigation environment on developing deep understanding and achievement in organic chemistry and its relations with goal orientation among secondary female students in Saudi Arabia. The study used the experimental design with the control and experimental groups, both pre and post measurement, The study groups included (22) students in the experimental group and (24) students in the control group at the secondary stage in Wadi Al-Dawasir governorate in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Study used three tools: a deep understanding test in organic chemistry, an achievement test in organic chemistry, and a goal orientation scale (Translated by: Banna, 2018. The results indicates that there are statistically significant differences at the level (α = 0.05) between the mean scores of the experimental group and the control group in the deep understanding test, and the achievement test in organic chemistry for the third-year secondary students in favor of the experimental group, and the results also found that there are statistically significant differences at the level of (α = 0.05) among the average grades of third-grade secondary school students in deep understanding and achievement in organic chemistry according to their different goal orientation, The results were discussed, recommendations and suggestions were made.
