ABSTRACT

The research aimed at measuring the effectiveness of using drama approach on developing values of tolerance and acceptance of others in social studies for middle stage students. The researchers followed both the descriptive–analytical design and the experimental design. A checklist and a scale for tolerance and acceptance of others’ skills, teacher’s guide, and activity student booklet were all designed in light of the drama approach. The research was conducted to (60) female first year middle stage students divided into two groups; an experimental group of (30) female students, and a control group of (30) female students. The results showed that there was a statistically significant difference at (0.01) level of significance between the experimental group mean scores and the control group students in the post application in acceptance of others value scale as a whole and in each dimension separately in favor of the experimental group. Results approved that using the drama approach achieved a level of effectiveness in developing the values of tolerance and accepting others among middle school students. The research concluded that drama approach is highly recommended to be used in teaching generally and in teaching social studies particularly to develop the values of tolerance and acceptance of others.
