Relationship between school success of students and use of teaching materials

The importance of this research is reflected in the possibility of deeper and a more comprehensive overview of the specifics of the application of teaching AIDS to student achievement, in the area of two key teaching subjects in primary school. Mathematics and Serbian language were chosen as teaching subjects, since they have the highest number of classes per week and the importance within the curriculum for elementary school. The goal of the research is to determine the basic characteristics of the connection between the application of teaching AIDS and school success of students. In order to realize the research the descriptive method was used, and the data collection techniques included surveying and scaling. In the research, two research samples are constituted, the sample of teachers and the sample of students. The sample of teachers consists of 150 Mathematics teachers and 150 Serbian language teachers. The student sample included a total of 600 seventh-graders. A statistically significant positive correlation exists between the mark from Mathematics and Serbian language and application of teaching AIDS. Significant association with the mark from Mathematics was especially confirmed in the participation of students in the choice of teaching AIDS. A particularly important connection with the mark from Serbian language was confirmed in application of teaching AIDS, in the function of the development of students' thinking, and participation of students in the choice of teaching AIDS.
