Abstract

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to the effect of Critical Thinking based on Vygotsky's Constructivism Theory on the level of Critical Thinking among the students in the fifth grade elementary school. Methods: To examine research hypothesis, a semi-experimental method with pre-test and post-test design with control group was used. Statistical population of this study included all female Fifth grade students studying in elementary schools in Tehran during the academic year 2016-2017. In this research Shaheed Madani School in the 15th district of Tehran was selected by random cluster sampling. The sample size was 66 people (33 in the experimental group and 33 in the control group). To teaching the chosen science course in both experimental and control groups were devoted six teaching sessions. Watson-Glaser Critical Thinking Test was used for pre-test and post-test. Data were analyzed using covariance analysis. In this research, content validity was used to calculate the validity of Critical Thinking test. In this study, alpha method or Cronbach's alpha coefficient were used to calculate the reliability of Critical Thinking test. Results: The results showed that the experimental group obtained 23. 7 points higher than the control group in the Critical Thinking test which is significant at 1% level. Conclusions: Teaching of Critical Thinking based on Vygotsky's Constructivism Theory increases the Critical Thinking of students of the fifth grade elementary school which confirms the research hypothesis.
