Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate modern teaching methods applied by the staff at the University of Hail during the COVID-19 pandemic to identify the most important causes, needs, and barriers from their perspective. Also, the study aimed to reveal individual differences (gender, academic rank, or experience) of statistical significance in the staff’s degree of use. To achieve the objectives of the study, the researcher used descriptive analysis on a sample of 164 faculty members. The researcher designed a five-axis questionnaire. The results indicated the importance of e-training when using modern teaching methods. Also, it was clear that the research sample uses MTM to some extent, and the use of modern teaching strategies was found to be moderate. Gender, academic rank, years of experience in the field of university education, and academic specialization did not affect training needs. In addition, the results showed that the most important reason for using MTM during the COVID-19 pandemic was “Mastery of how to use it.”
Highlights
University teaching is a vital function that effectively prepares students for the future, arming them with specialized knowledge, positive behavioral trends and values, and necessary scientific and practical skills to render them as active community members [1]
E research problem is “the weak use of modern teaching methods at the UOH during the COVID-19 pandemic due to obstacles and training requirements among university staff according to their awareness of modern teaching strategies and their application in teaching.”
Is may be useful in assessing the current usage of MTM, allowing the development plans to improve their performance based on actual training needs
Summary
University teaching is a vital function that effectively prepares students for the future, arming them with specialized knowledge, positive behavioral trends and values, and necessary scientific and practical skills to render them as active community members [1]. It is vital to train teachers on the use of active learning strategies and emulate some other university experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic [20, 21]. E research problem is “the weak use of modern teaching methods at the UOH during the COVID-19 pandemic due to obstacles and training requirements among university staff according to their awareness of modern teaching strategies and their application in teaching.”. Is may be useful in assessing the current usage of MTM, allowing the development plans to improve their performance based on actual training needs These facilitators responding to modern trends call for an increased interest in MTM. Teaching methods are the various strategies that a teacher uses to present knowledge to students according to educational objectives to achieve the learning outcomes. Some university staff training programs tend to make it one of the responsibilities of the university that attract specialists and qualified experts to develop the capabilities of university teachers. e results of a study clarify this more [18], focusing on the necessity of workshops, courses, and training programs covering how to employ modern teaching strategies and methods at the university level
