تقويم تجربة تعليم الرياضيات عن بعد عبر التطبيقات لرقمية المتزامنة في فلسطين

Abstract EN

This study aimed to evaluate the experience of Mathematics distance education through synchronous digital applications during the Covid-19 pandemic in Palestine, by indentifying the most significant pros of mathematics distance education and its difficulties through synchronous digital applications.

The research also aimed to propose a number of recommendations in order to improve this experience.

The researcher used the qualitative approach, and interviewed (12) Mathematics teach- ers in Palestine.

The results showed that Mathematics distance education through synchronous digital applications contributed to ensuring the continuity of education during the Covid-19 pandemic, as well as intro- ducing the educational content in an interesting and attractive way.

In addition, the results showed a number of difficulties faced by teachers, including: weak commitment by students to attend synchronous meet- ings, low internet speed that does not match requirements of distance education, lack of computers, messiness caused by students while learn- ing, and absence of discipline during synchronous meetings.

The study introduces a number of recommendations, including: training teachers and students on synchronous digital applications, developing education- al content that fits with education through synchronous digital applica- tions, taking steps that contribute to enhance students’ commitment at- tending synchronous meetings, and providing other requirements such as computers for students and interactive whiteboards for teachers, as well as boosting internet speed.
