Factors affecting teachers' willingness of teaching social studies online after the pandemic of Corona : a prospective study

Abstract EN

The present study examined social studies teachers' willingness to pursue online teaching in the future.

It also examined what factors affect such willingness, as well as the difference in this willingness.

The researcher administered a questionnaire of 37 statement items on a sample of 283 Kuwaiti social studies teachers of both genders.

The results showed that the sample teachers did indicate a steep willingness.

However, it also demonstrated that the factors related to the learning environment were the most deterring ones.

The differences between male teachers and females did not exist in the present study.

The researcher concluded the study with some suggestions and recommendations concentrating on improving social studies teachers' willingness to online teaching that can warrant conclusive education of the students.
