السقالات التعليمية كأداة في التعلم عبر الإنترنت للطفولة المبكرة ودراسة تأثيرها على تطور التعليم أثناء جائحة كوفيد 19 : تطبيق أكسفورد كنموذج
The latest pandemic caused by the virus COVID-19 has resulted in schools shut across the world. Globally, over 1.2 billion children are out of the classroom (World Economic Forum). Similarly, in Kuwait and at the end of February 2020 around 500,000 students were forced to stay at home without schooling. Decision makers at the ministry of education were struggling to find an effective replacement for face-to-face learning. The only solution that was available for decision makers is to drift towards online learning to comply with the health and safety regulation provided by ministry of health. By October 2020, the MOE approved online learning to be used in its schools through the use of MS Team platform. This methodology of learning was facings lots of resistance due to the lack of interaction. The teacher was delivering the lesson in a one way where the learner has no way to interact efficiently. In the light of the above, the need emerged for assessing a comprehensive educational platform to be used to increase the efficiency of online leaning and hence provide the learner an enjoyable a beneficial learning experience that can promote the learner’s education. In this research, the study was employed at ALlulu kindergarten and involved a sample of learners from the kindergarten level. The process of “scaffolding” as a teaching strategy in early childhood education was implemented. The research results came out to be in harmony with previous literature and proved that scaffolding can promote children’s learning about the natural environment. (Author’s abstract)
