جودة المساقات الإلكترونية في برنامج ماجستير التربية في الجامعات الفلسطينية من وجهة نظر الطلبة
This study aimed to evaluate the quality of e-courses in the Master of Education program in Palestinian universities from the students’ point of view. The study used the mixed methodology (quantitative and qualitative). (80) students responded to the questionnaire of (41) items and were distributed in three domains, and (11) students responded to the interview of (5) open questions about the strength and weakness points of e-courses and suggestions for development. The study findings are: The total degree of the three domains of the e-courses quality was high (76.33); the degree of the quality standards of e-courses of each domain is high, since it was between (70.3-82.2). The study showed that the main advantages of the e-courses are that they save time and effort and provide the opportunity to watch the recorded lectures at anytime and anywhere, alongside a diversity in learning sources as well as in learning and evaluating activities. Whereas the main disadvantages of e-courses were found out by the study to be that they reduce the visual communication with the lecturers, in addition to the lack of skills of some lecturers in using e-learning strategies. Most prominent suggestions are to diversify the use of e-learning strategies and considering the necessity of providing slides on the Moodle before the lecture. The study recommended adoption of the list of quality standards for e-courses developed in this study by the Academic Quality Department in universities, developing a training program on the e-Learning approach (concerning teaching designs, teaching strategies, assessment methods), and training all academics on it.
