| dc.description.abstract | The main objective of the study was to investigate the role of models on students’ conceptual understanding of geometry in Addis Zemen higher education preparatory secondary school. Specifically, the study examined students’ understanding on their ability to identify the effect and contribution of models on the students’ geometric concept understanding, providing different type of instructional material and teaching methods to the students in order to understand geometric concepts simply. The study employed quasi-experimental design. The data were collected from 92 students and grouped in to two one treated group the other the control group. The data were collected using test in the actual classroom situation, and analyzed using a t-test and ANOVA test were used for data analysis. Then the result indicated that the use of models in teaching geometry has significance in geometry classes. Hence, the study implied that teachers/curriculum expert’s taught to aware of the students, concept understanding to diagnose and involve models approach in the teaching and learning process of geometry. Finally, the study suggested that the concepts of geometry are abstract in nature and it requires more visualization tools to the students’ geometrical concept understanding and for spatial thinking | en_US |
