    This study aimed at investigating the impact of using algorithmic maps in immediate and long achievement of tenth grade students in mathematics course, in polynomial functions. The study attempted to test the following hypotheses: 1. There are no significant differences between the average of control and the average of experimental students groups in immediate achievement belong to the method, sex and the interaction between them. 2. There are no significant differences between the average of control and the average of experimental students groups in long achievement belong to the method, sex and the interaction between them. 3. There are no significant differences in attitudes of students between control and experimental students groups after and before experiment. 4. There are no significant differences between the control and experimental students groups in immediate achievement belong to the method, sex and the interaction between them. 5. There are no significant differences between the control and experimental students groups in long achievement belong to the method, sex and the interaction between them. To test the hypotheses, the researcher conducted this study on a sample consisting of (104) male and female students attending public schools belonging to the directorate of education in salfeet governorate, distributed among four sections in four different schools. Two sections, one for males and one for females, were chosen randomly and these two represented the experimental sections, the two sections were taught by using algorithmic maps method, where as the other two sections were taught according to traditional method. A per-test was prepared to make sure the even between the two groups and t-test was used for this purpose. An achievement test was also prepared on the polynomial functions unit. Reefers checked reliability of the test and validity was calculated by using person formula, and its value was (0.957). also, it was prepared a questionnaire to measure attitudes toward mathematics, data were analyzed by t-test for the first and second hypotheses, and by using two way analysis of variance on factor design to test the study five hypotheses. Findings: 1. There are a significant difference between the average of immediate and the delayed tests for experimental group belong to the method, but there are no significant differences belong to the sex and the interaction between the method and sex. 2. There are no significant difference in attitudes of tenth grade students between control and experimental students groups after and before experiment. 3. There are significant differences between the control and experimental groups in long and delayed achievement attributed to experimental group, belong to the method, but there are no significant differences belong to the sex and the interaction between the method and sex. Finally, the researcher hopes to support this study by other studies in different population and different concepts and algorithms in mathematics to determine if the results of this study remains the same. also the study recommended to use algorithmic maps in teaching mathematics, and for teachers training, in curriculum preparing and as a research and evaluation tool in education.
