Abstract

The aim of this research is to know the degree of attitudes of science teachers in the intermediate stage in the Department of Education of Boys towards the use of mobile learning during the Corona pandemic in the educational process, in addition to knowing the impact of the variables of scientific specialization and the number of years of experience in the attitudes of science teachers in the middle school towards the use of mobile learning during the Corona pandemic In the educational process of the Sebaya Education Department, to achieve the objectives of the research, the descriptive survey method was used the sample of this research consisted of (110) female teachers who were chosen by the simple random sampling method; In order to collect the data, a measure of attitude towards the use of mobile learning in the educational process was prepared and it consisted of (25) phrases, and the results of the research indicated that the science teachers in the intermediate stage in the Boys’ Education Department have high positive attitudes towards the use of mobile learning in the educational process, and there are no differences due to the variable The scientific specialization (physics, chemistry, biology) and the variable number of years of experience (from 1-5 years; from 6-10 years; 10 years and more) in the attitudes of science teachers in the intermediate stage in the Department of Education for Boys towards the use of mobile learning in the educational process
