Abstract: (485 Views)
Background: Working memory is often considered as an active mental space that can be used to store important information during mental activities
Aims: The purpose of the current study is to interpret the structural modeling of the effective factors in promoting the working memory of students.
Methods: Identifying the effective factors on strengthening the working memory of students was done through semi-structured interviews based on theoretical saturation with professors in the fields of educational sciences and psychology. This study is based on the practical purpose and from the perspective of the method; it is in the field of mixed studies with the inductive-comparative approach. The validity and reliability of the interviews were confirmed by the method of relative content validity and Cohen's kappa index using 2020 MaxQda software. In order to model the effective factors on strengthening students' active memory, the opinions of secondary school teachers in Mashhad in the academic year of 2022-2023 were used with the purposeful sampling method and with the help of a questionnaire based on ISM matrices.
Results: Validity and reliability of the questionnaire were confirmed using content validity and test-post-test method. The coding of the resulting data led to the identification of 14 effective factors on strengthening the active memory of students. Modeling of the identified factors with interpretive structural method led to the formation of seven levels, which were the most effective factors, creating active memory folder, gamification and retelling skills, and placing new information in the context of previous knowledge.
Conclusion: Therefore, in an effort to strengthen active memory, all factors should be considered and planned to improve all of them.
