Abstract

The objective of this research is to examine the impact of the Madrasati platform experience on acquiring mathematical concepts, and improving learning motivation from the point of view of mathematics teachers. To achieve the objective of the research, the researchers relied on the descriptive approach in its survey style. The sample of the study consisted of 613 mathematics teachers in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and the study tool (questionnaire) was distributed to them. These data were processed through the use of quantitative methods and measures, such as the statistical packages program SPSS. The main results were as follows. First, there was a moderate level of agreement among participants regarding the impact of the experience of using the Madrasati platform. Second, there was a much stronger level of agreement regarding the degree to which using the Madrasati platform enabled students to acquire mathematical concepts. Third, there was almost universal agreement among participants that using the platform enhanced students’ motivation to learn. Fourthly, the participants perceived there to be an extremely strong relationship between enhanced motivation to learn and the acquisition of mathematical concepts. The researchers recommend that students and mathematics teachers should continue to use the Madrasati platform in the everyday school environment.
