The Effect of Quran's stories on student's academic achievement

The present study is a quasi-experimental research based on pre-posttest design with a control group and tracking stage. The purpose of this research was to investigate the effect of the Quran's stories on student's academic achievement. The statistical population included all male students in the second year high school (Tehran district 5) in the academic year 1394-1395. Among these students, using a multi-stage sampling method, 60 students with a score of less than average (15) in the academic achievement test were selected. The students were divided into two groups by lot. The first group (30 members), with the title of the experimental group and the other (30 members), control group. In the first stage, both groups recorded their academic achievement. Then, in the experimental group (Quran's stories in 10 sessions of 20 minutes), an independent variable was performed and the control group did not receive any training. After the intervention, in the posttest phase, both groups (experimental and control) recorded their academic achievement. In order to analyze the data, descriptive and inferential statistics (BG ANOVA and paired-samples t-test) were used. While confirming the main hypothesis of the research, the results of the research showed that the Quran's stories, have positively influenced the academic achievement of the second year high school students in Tehran and have a good sustainability over time.
