This research includes general introduction that contains research problem, objectives, importance and methodology which is descriptive and analytical.

A lot of data is obtained from primary and secondary resources including books, journals, conference papers and interviews with student leaders from different political affiliations.

One result of this research is that student movement played positive roles in fighting the Occupation, but the student activities and mass work regressed after 1993.

There is quick survey of the major historical stages of the student movement, starting from the British Mandate, passing through to the defeat of 1967 and ending up with Oslo Agreement in 1993.
