This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study's objective was to obtain awareness of the present situation in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) concerning the use of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) in the education of students with intellectual disabilities through the insights of special education teachers working in mainstream boys' primary schools in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Insights were obtained from the teachers utilising an exploratory sequential mixed-methods research design comprising of semi-structured interviews (fifteen teachers) and a custom questionnaire (100 teachers). Methods of data analysis utilised by the study were thematic (interview data) and statistical (quantitative data). The study found that special education teachers were constrained by a lack of continuous training and the non-availability of suitable ICT resources, such as up-to-date resources and educational tools in Arabic. Moreover, ICT tools in the KSA are high-priced and funding provision lacks adequate planning and utilisation. The study's findings contribute to awareness of the current status of ICT use with students with intellectual disabilities in the KSA. Recommendations are offered to the Saudi Ministry of Education and to teachers working with students with intellectual disabilities. Suggestions for future research are also discussed.

Download or read book Teaching Educational Leadership in Muslim Countries written by Eugenie A. Samier and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-04-10 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the Islamic tradition and Muslim contexts for educational administration and leadership. It addresses the teaching of educational administration and leadership from an Islamic perspective by raising issues of globalised educational administration and leadership teaching as it applies in Muslim contexts that vary by culture and social institutions. The book proposes alternative approaches and demonstrates that Islamic traditions have a strong foundation upon which to build in the field and are compatible with many aspects of Western theory and practices, provided that sufficient modifications and adaptations are made. The book focuses on postgraduate curricula and pedagogy, drawing on a range of theoretical foundations and approaches that are culturally and jurisdictionally appropriate in a number of Muslim countries. As such, it contributes to an emerging specialisation in international and comparative educational administration and leadership that is oriented towards a broader and more diverse set of perspectives, particularly from the non-Western world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nowadays the use of information communications technology (ICT) is prevalent in higher education across all countries. This study focuses on the level of use of ICT among teachers at a leading university in Saudi Arabia. 16 in-depth interviews reveal that the majority of teachers do not make use of ICT in their teaching. A number of attitudes were identified ranging from the idea that ICT would hinder the teaching process to an unwillingness to change long-standing teaching methods. However, the results also reveal that many teachers want to use more ICT in their teaching. Thus, there is preparedness to receive training programmes that focus on ICT. The results are encouraging as well as identifying specific challenges.

Book excerpt: Key initiatives include a privatisation programme which would see the divestment of a number of state-owned giants, such as the partial listing of Aramco, the creation of the world’s largest sovereign wealth fund and the increased participation of women in the job market. The Kingdom has played a key role too on the international stage in 2017, becoming the first country to host President Trump, a visit which resulted in renewed trade and investment commitments on both sides. Meanwhile the country’s importance as a trading hub continues to grow thanks to both the various infrastructural upgrades that are taking place to its ports and airports, as well as its its geographical advantage as a connector of three continents and its proximity to the Red Sea – through which 10% of world trade travels.
