The Reality of the Use of Smartphone Applications in the Educational Process of Male and Female Teachers of Mathematics at the Primary Stage in Al-Dawadmi Governorate

Abstract

The study aimed to identify the reality of the use of smartphone applications in the educational process of male and female teachers of mathematics at the primary stage in Al -Dawadmi Governorate, and to define the obstacles to their application in the educational process, and to achieve the goals of the study; The descriptive survey approach was used, and the study tool (the questionnaire) was applied, which included (35) paragraphs on a random sample consisting of (220) mathematics teachers and teachers, and mathematical averages, normative deviations, and relative weights were extracted for the responses of the study sample members on the questionnaire, The "T" test was also used for two independent groups to compare the responses of the study sample according to the gender variable, and the researchers also used a single variance analysis to compare the response of the independent samples according to the variable "teaching experience", and the results of the study found that the use of possible smart phone applications in the educational process is available to a very high degree, and the results of the study showed that the obstacles to smart phone applications in the educational process are highly available, and there are no statistically significant differences between the average response Respondents according to the variable "gender", "teaching experience", In light of the results, the study recommended the need to include training programs for mathematics teachers and smart phone applications in the educational process, providing a technical team in schools to maintain devices, repair possible technical faults, and issue a guide on the use of smart phone applications in the educational process, preparing and preparing infrastructure in schools To take advantage of the modern technology in the educational process to the maximum extent.
