Assessing the Efficacy of E-Mind Mapping on Academic Performance: A Meta-Analysis of Empirical Research

The aim of this research article was to investigate the effectiveness of implementing e-mind mapping strategy in scientific courses among students of Emirati private preparatory schools, using a blended learning approach. To gather data, the researcher developed a survey based on previous studies that were published in peer-reviewed journals. The survey was then administered to 400 students in five Emirati private preparatory schools using purposive sampling. The students’ perspective was sought to determine their level of satisfaction with the e-mind mapping approach in scientific courses. The survey was conducted using Google Forms, and the data collected was analyzed to draw conclusions about the efficacy of e-mind mapping in scientific courses. With those 400 students, 182 completed the survey, resulting in a response rate of 45.5%. Descriptive analytical and quantitative approaches were used to analyze the data, which indicated that the e-mind mapping strategy was highly effective in promoting innovation and improving learning skills among students, as well as enhancing their writing-related abilities and self-learning practices. As a result, the researcher recommend that teachers receive training on how to create e-mind maps using various software.
