The effectiveness of an electronic program to develop the skills of integrating technology in education

Abstract

The study aimed to reveal the effectiveness of an electronic training program to develop the skills of integrating technology into education among basic education teachers in the city of Taiz. The nature of the study required the adoption of two approaches: descriptive analytical and quasi-experimental design. It was applied in two stages: the stage of identifying training needs when the sample reached (210) male and female teachers, and the electronic program implementation stage, which included a sample of (25) teachers, and the two samples were chosen in a simple random way from teachers of the basic education stage in the city of Taiz. This study designed the experimental treatment materials represented by the electronic training program and measurement tools. The study concluded: identifying a list of the most prominent skills for integrating technology into education, which represent a training need for basic education teachers in the city of Taiz. It also showed that there is a statistically significant difference at a significance level (α≤0.05) between the average scores and a statistically significant relationship at the level of significance (α≤0.05) between the average achievement scores in the cognitive aspect and skill performance. , among the sample members, and in light of these results, the study recommended the necessity of designing electronic training programs, to develop technology skills and integrate them into education among teachers, according to their actual training needs, in the form of applications that run on smart phones, in addition to urging the e-learning administration to activate online training. After using electronic training platforms, to provide teachers with digital teaching performance skills.
