To achieve the objectives of the research, the researcher relies upon two tools. The first one is a test about philosophical concepts. It entails (25) multiple- choice questions, and each question has four alternatives in which the validity and reliability have been confirmed. In addition, the researcher also prepares a learning motivation scale that includes (30) items, (15) of which are positive items and other (15) negative ones. Accordingly, the researcher presents a number of recommendations, including: holding training courses and workshops for professors in order to implement newer strategies and better methods that help to enhance students’ understanding of scientific concepts in the Department of Philosophy.
