Abstract

This study examines the effect of intelligence games on secondary school students' mathematics attitudes and academic achievement. The study was conducted with 5th grade students of a public secondary school in the centre of a province in the Mediterranean region and was based on a quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test control groups. In the experimental group, mathematics lessons were carried out with mathematics teaching in which intelligence games were integrated, while in the control group, mathematics lessons were carried out within the framework of the Ministry of Education Mathematics Curriculum. Mathematics Achievement Test and Mathematics Attitude Scale were used as data collection tools. The data obtained were analysed with SPSS statistical package programme. The results showed that there were positive changes in the mathematics attitudes and academic achievement of the students in the experimental group.
