Abstract
Abstract This study aims to identify analytical thinking and its relation to mathematical prowess among tenth- graders in public schools of Jerusalem suburbs Directorate, in light of gender and achievement variables in mathematics. The researcher used the descriptive correlational method for the study. the study population consisted of (1768) students from the tenth-grade of public schools in Jerusalem Suburbs Directorate. A stratified cluster sample was selected consists of (69) female students and (109) male students, which forms 10% of the study population of the academic year (2020-2021). The researcher used two tools, the first is the preference scale of testing analytical thinking, and the second is the test of mathematical prowess, along with verifying their validity and reliability. The results of the study show that the degree of analytical thinking among the tenth graders in Jerusalem suburbs directorate reached 59.7%, which is a medium percentage. Also, there are statistically significant differences at the significance level (α ≥ 0.05( in the Averages of the degree of analytical thinking among the tenth graders due to the gender variable and the differences are in favor of females. While the study did not find statistically significant differences in significance level (α ≥ 0.05( in the averages of the analytical thinking degree due to the variable of achievement in mathematics. Regarding mathematical prowess of tenth graders, the results of the study shows that the degree of mathematical prowess among tenth graders in Jerusalem suburbs directorate schools has reached (52.4%), which is a medium percentage. Also, there are no statistically significant differences at the significance level (α ≥ 0.05( in mathematical prowess averages among tenth graders attributed to the gender variable. However, there are statistically significant differences at the significance level (α ≥ 0.05( in the averages of mathematical prowess among tenth graders due to the achievement variable in mathematics with more than 80%. The results of the study indicate that there is a direct and statistically significant correlation between the degrees of analytical thinking and the degrees of mathematical prowess among tenth graders in Jerusalem suburbs directorate. Thus, the higher the degrees of analytical thinking, the higher the degrees of mathematical prowess and vice versa. In light of the study results, the researcher recommends that teachers use the approaches, tools and learning strategies that encourage the use of analytical thinking in solving mathematical problems. Also, she recommends enhancing the abilities of learners of mathematics and raising the level of their mathematical prowess by engaging them in solving problems in class interaction and brainstorming activities, as well as avoiding memorization and memorization
