The second was control group which consisted of (23) students studied according to the traditional method. In order to achieve the goals of the study, an instrument was developed to measure the skills of critical thinking and verified the validity and reliability of scientific procedures appropriate. In order to answer the study question, the researchers used the means, averages, standard deviations and MANCOVA to examine the significance of statistical differences, and the Eta Square to measure the effect of the experimental variable.
