Abstract

The research aimed at designing a proposed unit in Nanochemistry using Flipped Classroom Strategy and identifying its effectiveness on developing the Conceptual Understanding levels and Future Thinking skills To achieve these objectives, a website of digital learning objects and proposed Nanochemistry unit was Constructed , a teacher’s manual, a test for the conceptual understanding levels and future thinking skills were prepared. A randomly selected sample from the secondary second-year students was selected. The research group consisted of (36) students, then teaching proposed unit using a teacher's Guide to experimental research group. Post-application of the research tools and statistical data analysis and processing were run . Results showed the effectiveness of proposed unit in Nanochemistry using Flipped Classroom Strategy on developing the Conceptual Understanding levels and Thinking Future skills of secondary second-year students. Results also showed there are statistically significant positive relationship at (>0.01) level of significance between the depths of scientific knowledge levels and future thinking skills of secondary second-year students
