Abstract

T

he study aimed to Develop Chemistry curriculum in light of the standards of life applications and the effectiveness of teaching a unit of the developing curriculum based on format model (4MAT) for the Development of Mental Motivation and chemistry awareness for secondary stage students.To achieve this, the researcher prepared a list of standards and indicators of life applications for the content of the chemistry curriculum in the secondary stage ,A list of life applications in light of the list of standards, then the developed framework for the chemistry curriculum were prepared in light of the standards of life applications for secondary school students (the three grades), including curriculum maps, and a unit was prepared. "Industrial Chemistry" from the developed framework for the content of the chemistry curriculum formulated in the light of McCarthy's 4MAT model form for second year secondary school students. The researcher prepared the experimental study tools, the mental motivation scale prepared by Giancarlo & Factions, 1998, and the chemical awareness scale with its three axes and the study group was selected. They were (27) female students from second year secondary school for girls in Bani Mazar. (73%). The results showed the ineffectiveness of teaching the industrial chemistry unit using the (4MAT) model on mental motivation among the students , and the effect of teaching the unit on the chemical awareness of the students was found.
