This study aims to identify the impact of using the Brainology program in developing students' critical thinking, increasing motivation towards learning, and increasing their achievement. The researcher selected a deliberate sample of eighth grade students at an American school in the Gaza Strip - Palestine in the first semester of the 2019 / 2020 school year. To achieve the objectives of the study, the researcher used a quantitative survey methodology. The researcher adopted the Watson Glaser critical thinking test, while motivation for science learning was measured with the Glenn and Kopala (2006) scale. To measure academic achievement. After completing the program, interviews were conducted with a sample of students. For the results of the study, the data was analyzed using the SPSS statistical package, where quantitative survey methodology statistics were used, and mode. Other analyzes such as (Mann-Whitney) and appropriate statistical tests are also used to answer the research questions. The results of the study concluded that the Brainology program provided a statistically significant difference in the motivation domain for the experimental group, but there was no statistically significant difference in the domain of critical thinking and academic achievement. In addition, interviews show clear changes in motivation, persistence, and challenges towards academic tasks.

This study aims to elucidate and understand the role of parental treatment methods, including acceptance, tolerance, differentiation, and rejection, in enhancing family integration and its correlation with academic achievement among middle school students in Libyan schools in Malaysia. The study addresses the issue of children's exposure to positive parental treatment methods such as acceptance and tolerance versus negative treatment methods such as rejection and differentiation. It explores how these methods affect children's integration into their families and their academic performance. questionnaire and interview were employed as a form of data collection tools, distributing A the questionnaire to students and the interview form to parents and teachers. The study focused on middle school students in Libyan schools in Malaysia, with a total of 347 students. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS software. Out of 250 distributed questionnaires, 185 were retrieved, resulting in a 74% response rate. Interviews were conducted with 10 individuals, including parents and teachers, to enhance the study's A descriptive-analytical approach was utilized to analyze and describe the data, results. employing statistical averages to determine the sample's response levels to study variables. Linear regression analysis, t-tests, and one-way ANOVA were also used. The study's results revealed a statistically significant and strong positive impact at a significance level of (α ≤ 0.05) between parental treatment methods, family integration, and academic achievement. No significant gender differences were found in parental treatment methods, while statistically significant differences were identified in family integration and academic achievement. The study contributes theoretical, practical, and research-oriented insights by formulating an integrated model for parental treatment methods in enhancing family integration and its correlation with academic achievement.
