درجة وعي معلمي التعليم العام بالبيانات الضخمة (Big Data) ودور نماذج تعلم الآلة للإستفادة منها في التعليم

The current research aimed to identify the level of awareness of Big Data among male and female public education teachers in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The descriptive approach was used, and the tool was a questionnaire distributed to a sample of (391) male and female teachers in the city of Jeddah in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The research reached several results, the most prominent of which were: the level of awareness of the concept of Big Data was "medium", as the general arithmetic mean of the study sample's responses was equal to (3.34), and the level of awareness of the characteristics of Big Data was "high", as the general arithmetic mean of the study sample's responses was equal to (3.43), and the level of awareness of the role of machine learning models in benefiting from Big Data in education was "high", as the general arithmetic mean of the study sample's responses was equal to (3.53). The results also showed that there were no statistically significant differences in the variables (gender - specialization) among the sample members, while there were statistically significant differences in the variable of years of experience in favor of the group of 5 years or less. Among the most important recommendations and suggestions were: working to raise awareness of Big Data and understand its characteristics, and employing machine learning models in particular and artificial intelligence applications to benefit from them in the field of education to serve learning analytics processes.
