Arabic Abstract

هدفت هذه الدراسة إلى تقييم الكفاءة التقنية عند المعلمين من وجهة نظرهم في حدود محاور ومعايير الإطار الأوروبي للكفاءة الرقمية حيث أجريت في مدارس القطاع الخاص في الأردن/ عمان في العام الدراسي 2022/2023، وتم استخدام منهج المسح الوصفي للحصول على البيانات، وإعداد استبانة لقياس المعايير المطبقة بناء على محاور الأوروبي للكفاءة الرقمية، وتكونت عينة الدراسة من (123) معلما ومعلمة، وبينت النتائج أنه لا توجد علاقة بين العمر والجنس والخبرة والمجالات الأكاديمية ومستوى التعليم والمواقف اتجاه الكفاءة الرقمية، أما من حيث مستوى الخبرة المطلوبة لتبني التكنولوجيا، حيث أظهرت نتائج هذه الدراسة أن المعلمين الذين لديهم خبرة أعلى يستخدمون التكنولوجيا بشكل أكثر من المعلمين الآخرين، كما بينت أن مستوى الإدراك لتطبيق التكنولوجيا دون تفعيلها كان أعلى لدى المعلمين الذين تتراوح أعمارهم بين 31-39، وكما أظهرت النتائج أن المعلمين الذين لديهم خبرة من 1-5 سنوات لديهم معرفة رقمية أعلى من المعلمين الذين لديهم خبرة من 6-10 سنوات، وأوصت الدراسة مجموعة من التوصيات من أبرزها: إجراء دراسات مستقبلة على فئات أخرى من المؤسسات التعليمية، وقياس الكفاءة الرقمية عند أولياء الأمور.

English Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the teachers who work at the international independent school, ranging from first to twelfth grades regarding the level of competency required for the implementation of technology in their classrooms.

the methodology used in this study is descriptive-quantitative method using a cross-sectional survey design and a scale of 5-point Likert type.

teachers who hold undergraduate degrees were more digitally competence to those who hold graduate degrees.

in terms of major, teachers who teach humanities showed gradually digital competence as compared to those who teach sciences.

finally, teachers who are their thirty-one to thirty-nine scored the highest mean of perceptions of competency toward implementing technology in classrooms when it came to the implementation of technology in classrooms.

the study recommendations for pedagogical purposes were that the sample for future research may include parents and teachers along with students to study all the domains that can affect students and learning environments and their pedagogical behaviors in relation to technology, and to address the students’ needs and their digital abilities.
