The current research aims to determine the requirements of Trends of International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS 2019) and to find out the extent to which the content of science textbooks for grades (1-4) in the Sultanate of Oman includes the requirements of (TIMSS 2019). Only the Cognitive Process dimension has been considered when conducting the analysis. The study population includes all science books from the first to the fourth grade for the academic year 2021-2022. The study identified and organized the requirements in the study tool, which is a list of requirements of (TIMSS 2019). After confirming its validity and reliability, the analysis was performed, and data were collected and analyzed statistically using frequencies and percentages. The results showed that all domains (knowledge, Applying, and Reasoning) and all cognitive skills for each domain were included in each grade, but the percentages included in the books differed always from those specified in the requirements of (TIMSS 2019). The rank of the included domains in grades 1, 3, and 4, were as follows: first, knowledge, second, Applying, and finally, Reasoning, which is the same rank proposed by (TIMSS 2019). However, the rank for grade 2 was different where Applying came first while Reasoning and knowledge came in the second and third ranks respectively. When frequencies and ratios were calculated for each of the three domains of cognitive processes cumulatively over the four years (1-4), an interesting result popped out. The percentage included for each of the three domains is close to the percentages specified by (TIMSS 2019). This means that the science textbooks (Cambridge) designed for students from the first grade to the fourth grade have balanced well between the percentages included and the percentages specified by (TIMSS 2019), but over the four years and not over one year only, as the difference between the percentages included and the percentages specified by (TIMSS 2019) in the field of knowledge was about 6.5 percentage points in favor of the percentage included, and the difference in the field of Applying was about 4.5 points Percentage in favor of the specified percentage. As for Reasoning, the difference was less than two points only in favor of the specified percentage, which means that there is a relatively greater focus on knowledge and relatively less on Applying and Reasoning.
One of the difficulties that the kindergarten institution face is the lack of specialized teachers to work with the children at the kindergarten age for the majority of this stage teachers were prepared to teaech in the elementary stage while the kindergarten child needs ateacher who is aware of the characteristics and the demands of his growth and his behavioral emotional and social problems.
Therefore the best teacher must be chosen for the kindergarten and qualifying her educationally in all that this qualifying includes of knowledge's.

The contemporary art culture is considered a resultant of preceding human civilizations from the early days. At the same time, it got closer to the local privacy, because the contemporary Iraqi potter worked hard to create new art, refusing to base his art on the early works, creating art pieces that contains properties to inherited art and their form significance, in order to create a new identity of his own, bringing an empowerment to his deepened civilization, with the goal to create national identity ideas from one hand, and entity and locality from another. Europeans also followed the direction of our civilization, such as (Picasso, Henry Moore, Barbra Hurth, Brankouzi, Hans Arp,..etc). From this point of view comes the importance o

Show MoreThe aim of the study is to diagnose the real level of technology usage in teaching and learning EFL at university from teachers and students’ viewpoints, and see if it is possible to achieve something of the researchers’ dream - accessing top universities. Two questionnaires have been used to measure the range of technology usage in Colleges of Education for Women, Baghdad and Iraqi Universities, and College of Basic Education. The results have shown that the reality of using technology is still away from the dream. The results have been ascribed to two reasons: The first is the little knowledge of using technology in teaching, and the second is that technology is not included in the curriculum.
