The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of computerized mind maps strategy on solving physics problems of the basic stage students in the light of their learning styles. Participants were (172) tenth-grade students. An experimental group used computerized mind maps strategy, and a control group was taught using the regular method. The tools included physics problem solving test, and VARK questionnaire. Two way (ANCOVA), and Scheffe‘s test were applied. The results showed statistically significant differences regarding the mean differences between the students‘ score on physics problem solving test that were attributed to the teaching strategy, statistically significant differences were attributed to learning styles in favor of visual and multimodal students, and to the interaction between teaching strategy and learning styles.
