Motives for people with visual impairment to use the social media site "Facebook" and achieved gratifications Field Study
Get PDFThis research aims to study the motives for people with visual impairment to use the social media site "Facebook" and achieved gratifications. Its importance lies in the significant impact of social media, particularly Facebook, and the importance of visually impaired persons and their use of Facebook in light of the challenges and obstacles they face. This research falls within the descriptive research. In order to achieve the objectives of this research, the survey method was used. The questionnaire tool has been applied to an available sample of 76 individuals from the study community of all visually impaired people using Facebook from all Arab countries, depending on the researcher's ability to access this sample, which is difficult to access. One of the most important findings of this research is that 73.7% of the sample study are completely blind, and 64.5% are using an NVDA screen reader. The results show that almost half of the sample individuals use Facebook (always), which is especially high given the difficulties faced by those with full visual impairment. Also, one of the most important motive of the use of Facebook by persons with visual impairment are: (Creating new social relationships, communicating with parents and friends, familiarity with local, Arab and international news, finding topics that others have discussed, and working through Facebook my free time), all of that were highly motivated, while the most important gratifications are: (Help me familiarize myself with local, Arab and international news, know others about my interests, know me about the characteristics of the society in which I live, help me create new social relationships, help me find topics of conversation with others, help me fill my leisure time), all of that were of high satisfaction. But the majority of respondents see that they have not achieved much through their use of Facebook, and one of the most important negative effects of their use of Facebook is its use in spreading rumors among people, followed by social isolation resulting from using Facebook away from mixing with others face to face

Program for International Student Assessment Life Contexts Involved in the 8th Grade Palestinian Math Textbook/ Part One
Get PDFThis study aims to evaluate the Palestinian 8th-grade math textbook /part1, in terms of its inclusion for the life contexts (scientific, societal, professional, and personal) adopted in the Program for Itnternational Student Assessment (PISA) assessment. The study used the analytical descriptive method in which it used the context classification criteria adopted in the PISA 2018 assessment; to classify the contexts of the examples, learning activities, and evaluating items involved in the 8th-grade math textbook. The study results showed a variation in the degree of including these contexts in the textbook units, whether in terms of examples and educational activities, or in terms of evaluation items, or in terms of the totality of what is included in the content; The percentage of the scientific, personal, societal and professional contexts for the whole content, were 47.56%, 8.54%, 29.27%, and 14.63% respectively. Accordingly, the study recommends that more contexts must be included in the 8th-grade math content, while more interest to achieve a greater balance in terms of including those contexts
