Subject : Case Study: Investigating the Use of VLE in Teaching Mathematical Concepts to Third Grade Students 
Document Language : Arabic 
Abstract : A study was conducted to investigate the impact of using VLE in the form of web-based virtual manipulative on student's learning improvements in mathematics. A sample of third grade level girls from private school in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia was chosen. The students were divided into two groups (Group-1 and Group-2); both groups were taught the measurement lesson in the traditional manual method. Group-1 applied their knowledge on paper, while Group-2 used the web-based virtual manipulatives. Both Groups were given pre-post tests to measure the learning outcome. A comparison of the test results from the web-based VM measurement exercises, and traditional paper-based measurement exercises, shows that the use of web-based VM exercises has a statistically significant positive effect on student’s learning of measurement topic. This study enforces the idea that technology should be a major part of teaching mathematical concepts within the curriculum of Saudi Arabian schools.
