Factors that affect the use of assistive technology with students with multiple disabilities in their institutions and the attitudes of teachers toward this use Turki Abdullah S. Alquraini(1) King Saud University (Received 28/05/2013; accepted 26/09/2013) Abstract: The purpose of this study was to identify some factors that affect the use of assistive technology with students with multiple disabilities in their institutions , as well as the attitudes of teachers towards using assistive technology with their students. The study included 54 teachers who worked with student with multiple disabilities in institutions in the city of . The results of the study showed that an essential factors that significantly affects the use of assistive technology is the lack of special education teachers with the necessary competencies relevant to the field of assistive technology. The training of individualized education program team members on using this technology is similarly lacking. The results of the study also showed that teachers of students with multiple disabilities do have positive attitudes towards the use of assistive technology with their students. Finally, the study provided several recommendations regarding assistive technology as used with these students. Keywords: competencies, special education teachers, training ______

The Effects of TRIZ Theory's Strategies in Improving Creative Teaching Science Skills for Female Student Teachers at Princess Nora Bint AbdulRahman University Amani M. Al-Hussan(1) and Jabber M. Aljabber(2) Princess Noura University (Received 25/10/2013; accepted 01/12/2013) Abstract: The current study aimed to identify the effectiveness of creative problem solving strategies based on TRIZ theory in improving creative teaching skills for student teachers at Princess Nora Bint AbdulRahman University. The sample of the study consisted of (48) female student teachers, which was divided into two groups. Twenty five female student teachers were in the control group, and taught by traditional teaching methods. Twenty Three female student teachers were in the treatment group, and exposed to creative problem solving strategies based on TRIZ theory. Data was collected by using creative teaching skills questionnaire, and statistical analysis such as means, standard deviations, IndependentSample Ttest was conducted. In addition, Eta squared (η2) was computed to determine the effectiveness of creative problem solving strategies on improving creative teaching skills. Results revealed statistically significant differences between the control and treatment groups in favor of the treatment group.

The Effect of using Reciprocal Teaching Strategy in Developing the Natural Intelligence by Students of Geography Department in the College of Basic Education University of Mosul (1) (2) Fadhil Khalil Ibrahim and Rawaa Bahae Karkaje University of Mosul (Received 28/11/2013; accepted 28/01/2014) Abstract: The research aims to identify the effect of using reciprocal teaching strategy in developing of natural intelligence among the students of the third grade / Department of Geography / College of Basic Education, university of Mosul. The research sample included (58) male and female students distributing randomly into two groups, the experimental group numbered (30) male and female students were taught by reciprocal teaching strategy, either the control group were included (28) male and female students were taught by the traditional Method. The researchers prepared a tool to measure the natural intelligence, introduced to a group of experts in the field of Education and Psychology to find the face validity; the reliability of the tool was (0.82). By conducting statistical treatments the results showed that there is statistically significant difference between the two groups in favor of the experimental group. In the light of the results the researchers recommended that the reciprocal teaching strategy should be used in the department of Geography. Further studies dealing with other variables were be recommended Key Words: I interactive learning, multiple I intelligence, Prediction Strategy, Geography Education. ______

Discussion students with LD were less likely to be satisfied when The primary purpose of the current study was to compared to parents of other categories of special evaluate whether parents were satisfied with the needs students. For instance, Starr et al. (2006) found special education services provided to their children that parents of children with learning disabilities had with LD. The results revealed that parents were significantly lower levels of satisfaction than those of satisfied with these services (M=4.04, SD=0.85).

In addition, parents in this study are likely to be (1988) indicated that parents of students with LD happy with services because they lack information scored high for satisfaction.

Meyers and Blacher (1987) found that satisfaction in the current study could be attributed to the majority (70%) of parents of children with severe cultural factors that encourage parents to accept the disabilities were either satisfied or very satisfied with disabilities of their children; such factors may affect all aspects of school programs.

By of the data and the parents’ satisfaction scores. For continuing this process, the lowest and highest the dependent variable (parents’ satisfaction scores), boundaries for each point were obtained (Algahtany, one-way ANOVA was proposed to investigate the Almethheb, & Alomar, 2011) as follows: 1=very effects of the independent variables (legal guardians, dissatisfied (from 1.00 to 1.80); 2=dissatisfied (more social status, income class, education level, helping than 1.80 to 2.60); 3=neutral (more than 2.60 to the child study at home, involvement in the child’s 3.40); 4=satisfied (more than 3.40 to 4.20); and school, grade of child, degree of child’s disability). 5=very satisfied (more than 4.20 to 5.00).

Although much work has been done, a educational provision for students with special clear and widely accepted definition of satisfaction education needs. A sample of diverse parents (N=562) does not exist. In some studies, satisfaction has been was surveyed on key aspects of educational provision described as a perception, attitude, or view (Samioti, such as the choice of school and influence of attitudinal Papanis, & Giavrimis, 2011). However, satisfaction and environmental factors. Results revealed a largely can be defined as the number of personal perceptions positive view of educational provision.

A survey questionnaire was completed by the parents of 491 students with LD at public elementary schools in Riyadh City.

Married parents were more satisfied than widowed parents. Parents with less than high school education were more satisfied than parents with more than a bachelor’s degree education. Parents with high school education were more satisfied than parents with more than a bachelor’s degree education. Parents with a bachelor’s degree education were more satisfied than parents with more than a bachelor’s degree education. Parents who were involved in the child’s school were more satisfied than parents who were not. Implications for future application and research are outlined.
