فاعلية برنامج تدريبي إلكتروني قائم على التلعيب في تنمية مهارات الثقافة الرقمية لدى معلمات التربية الخاصة
The research aimed to reveal the effectiveness of an electronic training program based on gamification in developing digital culture skills among special education female teachers. The researchers followed the descriptive analytical approach to analyse the educational literature and previous studies, and to design the research tools and research materials, and the experimental approach with a quasi-experimental design; for the experimental and control groups. The research was applied during the third semester of the year 1443 AH and the first semester of the year 1444 AH on a sample of special education female teachers in Makkah Al-Mukarramah. It consists of (30) female teachers, with (15) female teachers in the experimental group, and (15) female teachers in the control group. The research tools were a list of digital culture skills, an achievement test to measure the theoretical aspect, and a performance evaluation card for teachers, to measure the skill aspect resulting from the electronic training program, which was designed in the light of the general educational design model ADDIE. The results showed that there were statistically significant differences at the level of significance (α = 0.01) between the degrees of the parameters of the experimental group and the parameters of the control group in the post application of the test and the performance evaluation card, in favour of the experimental group with a significant positive effect. The research recommended the need to take advantage of the educational techniques used in training special education teachers before and during service. (Published abstract)
