  • Omani School Students' Knowledge, Attitudes and Behaviors Towards
    EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2020, 16(11), em1898 ISSN:1305-8223 (online) OPEN ACCESS Research Paper https://doi.org/10.29333/ejmste/8552 Omani School Students’ Knowledge, Attitudes and Behaviors Towards Date palms: Investigating the Role of Gender and Geographical Regions Khalsa Alaiwi 1, Abdullah Ambusaidi 2* 1 Biology teacher, Ministry of Education, OMAN 2 Humanities Research Centre, Sultan Qaboos University, OMAN Received 28 April 2020 ▪ Accepted 28 August 2020 Abstract The date palm occupies a special place in the Arab cultural heritage in general, and the Omani heritage in particular. The development of the agricultural sector and date palms cultivation depend mainly on the human factor represented by the farmlands with scientific skills and knowledge. This study explores Omani school students’ knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors towards date palms in light of two variables: gender and geographical area. The research follows a descriptive method, where a questionnaire consisting of 50 phrases about the date palms was distributed (25 knowledge, 15 attitudes, and 10 behaviors). The sample consisted of 894 students (447 males and 447 females) randomly selected from different schools in two geographically different governorates or regions (Muscat and Dakhiliya). The results showed a lack in students’ knowledge of date palms, while they showed positive attitudes and behaviors. Knowledge about date palms among male and female students is the same, but attitudes and behaviors are more positive with male students than female students. In addition, students who live in Al-Dakhiliya (Interior) Governorate have more favorable attitudes and behaviors than those living in Muscat Governorate. The results also showed statistically significant differences at (α = 0.05) in the students’ attitudes and behaviors on the date palms due to the existence of date palms in their homes or a family member working in the agricultural field.

  • Vocational and Technical Education in Lebanon: Strategic Issues and Challenges1 Gebran Karam Lebanese American University, Lebanon [email protected]
    International Education Journal, 2006, 7(3), 259-272. ISSN 1443-1475 © 2006 Shannon Research Press. http://iej.com.au 259 Vocational and technical education in Lebanon: Strategic issues and challenges1 Gebran Karam Lebanese American University, Lebanon [email protected] The current status of the Lebanese vocational and technical education (VTE) system is assessed and the strategic issues and challenges facing it are identified. In addition to the economic and social challenges that are common to many developing countries, the Lebanese system suffers from idiosyncratic problems, which may require innovative and bold reform strategies. The results of the first open consultations in the history of VTE with public and private sector stakeholders and key decision makers are analysed. These results are used to confirm the analysis of the current situation and to chart a strategic planning process for policy making, reform, and improved effectiveness in Lebanese vocational and technical education. Vocational education, technical education, educational policy, educational reform, effectiveness improvement, Lebanon BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY Lebanon is a small country of 10,452 square kilometres, situated in the heart of the Middle East on the Eastern shores of the Mediterranean Sea. There is a resident population of about 4 million inhabitants as well as about two to three million Lebanese residing abroad. Without its own natural resources the country has relied throughout the ages on trade, services, light industry, and the economic support of a continuously expanding Diaspora. The national economy was devastated during the civil war that took place between 1975 and 1990. It has only partially recovered because of the subsequent years of political immobility, factionalism, and mismanagement.

  • Lebanon Education in Crisis
    LEBANON EDUCATION IN CRISIS: RAISING THE ALARM March 2021 Education in Crisis At least 1.2 million children across Lebanon have had their education disrupted for more than one year, with many having last attended school in October 2019, following protests and civil unrest. This is impacting Lebanese, Syrian and Palestinian children alike. With the country slipping deeper into an economic crisis, a safe and systematic school reopening in Lebanon is difficult to imagine. Even before this, children across the country already had lower than average literacy and numeracy rates in the Middle East region. The longer children are out of school, the further their learning outcomes will drop, and the greater the potential for an increase in incidents of child labour and child marriage, among other protection concerns. The limited data on school enrolment, retention, and current access to learning across Lebanon is limiting any ability to plan and effectively deliver education interventions.1 It is vital that schools open as soon as it is safe to do so, and that all children are able to access education regardless of their background or gender. There should also be increased investment in appropriate data collection on children’s learning in Lebanon and strengthened coordination in the education sector to respond to the education crisis without delay. 1 Limited access to data on education is limiting the education sector's ability to plan and respond to the education crisis. This includes a lack of data on the total number of children enrolled in different schools, enrolment data by nationality, drop-out rates or failure to enrol, and the number of school days children are actually attending, including for remote learning.

  • Challenges in Education System Affecting Teacher Professional Development in Oman
    Athens Journal of Education - Volume 5, Issue 3 – Pages 261-282 Challenges in Education System Affecting Teacher Professional Development in Oman By Amira Sulaiman Al Shabibi Heikki Silvennoinen† On international comparisons, the development of Oman’s education system in terms of the increase in educational enrolment rates and in the level of teacher qualifications has been remarkably rapid. Almost 100% access to basic education has been achieved, and almost all students progress onto post-basic education. A report from the World Bank in 2001 described the development of Oman’s education system in the decades 1970-2000 as "unprecedented" and "unparalleled by any other country". However, international assessments on learning outcomes in literacy (PIRLS), and mathematics and sciences (TIMSS) show that Omani students perform very poorly in all three subjects, and that boys’ performance levels are significantly lower than that for girls. The aim of this study is to describe the present-day situation in Omani schooling and the challenges it poses for teacher professional development. The study is based on a meta-analysis of a variety of studies, research reports, articles, and statistics with the aim of presenting a comprehensive picture of the challenges for the development of teaching and learning in Omani schools. Keywords: gender, learning outcomes, Oman, teaching, teacher professional development. Introduction Oman is located in the Middle East, bordered by the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen. In 2017, the estimated population of Oman was 4.74 million. A large share of the population are foreigners, about 600,000 people, mostly guest workers from Egypt, Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, and the Philippines.

  • Analytical Study of Technology Enhanced Learning in Arabic Language in Primary Level Education in Government and Private Schools of Oman
    Third Middle East College Student Research Conference, Muscat, Sultanate of Oman Analytical study of technology enhanced learning in Arabic Language in primary level education in Government and Private schools of Oman Tahani Rhaid Aljabri Vikas Rao Naidu Prakash Kumar Udupi Student, Department of Faculty, Department of Faculty, Department of Computing, Middle East College, Computing, Middle East College, Business Studies, Middle East College, Sultanate of Oman Sultanate of Oman Sultanate of Oman Education technology is one of the key application areas of Multimedia during these days. In the early stage, technology- based learning was limited to only those educational institutions which could afford it. But in this era of information technology, it became very important to incorporate various means of making the learning process more interesting and engaging not only in the higher education sector but also in school level. One similar application of the above context is defined in the proposed project which is design of educational application in Arabic for the children of age group 3-5 years in Al Ajial private school, Oman. This application is the solution or the problems and learning difficulties suffered by children in school. This educational application can influence how to learn basic skills such as reading, writing and mathematics and in a way to learn high- level skills such as organization and time planning, abstract thinking, and the development of long memory or short-term and interest in school and subject. This application will also be easy to use to the students in terms of the allocation of their subjects and materials required.
