Traditional education systems do not provide students with much freedom to choose the right training of study that suits them, which leads on long-term to the negative effects not only on social, economic and mental' well-being of student, but also will have a negative effect on the quality of the work produced by this student in the future. In…

This paper examines the current situation of learning ESP in a non-English Department at the University of Saida, Algeria. Data were collected from the targeted population which was an ESP teacher and a group of 46 first-year License-Master-Doctorate political sciences students. Three methods of data collection were used to investigate the…

In recent months, universities around the world have been forced to cancel courses and close their doors due to the growing coronavirus epidemic. Following the government's precautions, Algerian students were bound to quarantine regulations for their safety. Thus, they unexpectedly switched to online learning instead of face-to-face learning. Our…

Our aim in this paper is to improve the efficiency of a learning process by using learners' traces to detect particular needs. The analysis of the semantic path of a learner or group of learners during the learning process can allow detecting those students who are in needs of help as well as identify the insufficiently mastered concepts. We…

This study aims to assess whether the handling of concrete ball-and-stick molecular models promotes translation between diagrammatic representations and a concrete model (or vice versa) and the coordination of the different types of structural representations of a given molecular structure. Forty-one Algerian undergraduate students were requested…

This paper aimed to empirically test whether implementing the blended teaching approach in ESP courses positively affects students' achievement and their attitudes towards it. To this end, explanatory type and quasi-experimental design research were carried out with two groups of students (N = 60) enrolled in the computer science department at…

The goal of this study is to investigate the use of online learning platforms by Arab public universities during the Novel Coronavirus outbreak from the perspective of faculty members of library & information sciences. A quantitative research approach was used in the form of an online survey conducted in April 2020 on 121 members, 72 males,…

This article aims at introducing the research on social work practice in Egypt and the Arab World as a thematic topic. It has started with the essence of the current Arab World and its definition.

The COVID-19 Pandemic impacted world society in many ways. The virus rode our interconnected transit systems and exploited a globally connected world where a person can traverse the planet within a day; far shorter a time than the incubation period. The virus challenged our assumptions on communicability of disease and transmission vectors. It…

This study aims to describe the similarities and differences in the science interests of males and females from Israeli and Arab Middle Eastern countries, as derived from over 1,000 science questions sent to an international ask-a-scientist site. Our findings indicate that while the stereotypical gender gap in interest persists, and significant…

In Technology Enhanced Learning Environments, self-regulated learning (SRL) partly relies on the features of the technological tools. The authors present two environments they designed in order to facilitate SRL: the first one (e-Dalgo) is a website dedicated to the learning of algorithms and computer programming. It is structured as a classical…
