Abstract: The study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of the mind mapping teaching method combined with cooperative learning on academic achievement.Utilizing the experimental method with a two-group design, a sample was selected from two cohorts of third-year middle school students at Al-Bashir Al-Ibrahimi Middle School in El Oued, Algeria, ensuring their equivalence in first-term academic performance.The experimental group, chosen randomly, was taught a portion of the natural sciences curriculum using the mind mapping method combined with cooperative learning, while the control group was taught using the traditional method.At the end of the experiment, an achievement test, validated for reliability, was administered to both groups.Statistical analysis using the t-test for independent groups and the Eta-squared coefficient revealed that the mind mapping teaching method combined with cooperative learning was more effective than the traditional teaching method in improving academic achievement.
