The Effectiveness of a Program Based on Blended Learning in Developing National Identity and Concepts of Intellectual Security Among Kindergarten children in the Najran Region

Abstract

The goal of this study was to determine how well a blended learning program develops national identity and concepts of intellectual security in kindergarten students in the Najran region. Blended learning is an integrated system that combines e-learning with traditional methods to guide and help the child in acquiring concepts and skills. It is one of the modern approaches based on the use of educational technology in designing new educational situations, and it has become an urgent necessity, especially because of its characteristics that make it the most suitable alternative for developing the educational system. In order to do this, a one-group quasi-experimental design was employed along with a blended learning program that was suggested, along with measures of intellectual security and national identification for kindergarteners. Twenty-seven kids made up the research sample, and they were chosen at random. The outcomes demonstrated how well the suggested program worked to help the study sample's national identification and ideas of intellectual security grow. The study made a number of recommendations, the most significant of which are to use blended learning to help children develop their thoughts and abilities and to incorporate national identity and ideas of intellectual security into educational units and kindergarten activities.
