A Proposed Model for Electronic Training according to the TPACK Model for Faculty Members in some Saudi Universities during the Covid-19 Pandemic
Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic led to dynamic changes in the roles of faculty members, which necessitated the development of the e-training system in order to be suitable for preparing faculty members for any emergency situation. Accordingly, the current study aims to develop a proposed model for e-training according to the TIPAK model for faculty members in some Saudi universities during the Covid-19 pandemic. The study used the descriptive approach in developing the proposed model. The research sample consisted of (92) faculty members from five Saudi universities, King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah University, King Saud University, Umm Al-Qura University, and Jizan University. The results resulted in identifying the highest (3) training needs for faculty members, which is the use of e-learning management systems and tools in teaching course contents at a rate of (93.7%) as a requirement for the field of educational technology knowledge. Employing electronic teaching methods and strategies in teaching academic content with a rate of (88.7%) as a requirement for the field of educational content knowledge. Employing digital resources in promoting academic growth by (85.6%) as a requirement for the field of technological knowledge of the content. An e-training model was developed based on the three training needs to be implemented across a range of training situations and diverse strategies using synchronous and asynchronous tools via Blackboard. The study recommended the need to develop training programs for faculty members within the framework of the components of the TIPAK model.
