اتجاهات معلمي المرحلة الثانوية بدولة الكويت نحو استخدام التكنولوجيا الرقمية في التدريس

Abstract EN

The study aimed to identify the attitudes of secondary school teachers in the State of Kuwait towards the use of digital technology in teaching, in light of the variables of gender, academic qualification, and number of years of service in secondary schools.

For this purpose, a special tool for the current study was developed, consisting of a questionnaire that included 30 items.

An electronic copy was applied between October and December of the 2020/2021 academic year, and a random sample of 1200 male and female teachers was selected out of the respondents.

Findings revealed the existence of highly positive attitudes among secondary school teachers towards using digital technology in teaching.

It was also found that there are no statistically significant differences, attributed to the gender (male / female) variable, among the average scores of the respondents regarding the teachers' attitude towards utilizing digital technology in teaching.

However, based on the variables of academic qualification and number of years of service in teaching, statistically significant differences were detected in favor of the teachers who have postgraduate qualifications, and those who have less than 10 years of service, respectively.

In light of this, a set of recommendations and proposals was presented to facilitate the use of this technology in the teaching reality.
