The Reality of Using Smart Device Applications in Learning Applications by University Students at the College of Basic Education in Kuwait

Abstract

The study aimed to reveal the reality of the use of smart device applications by university students in Kuwait for smart device applications in learning, and the study sought to know the impact of each of the variables: (gender, rate of use) on this. The researcher used the survey descriptive method to achieve the objectives of the study. The study sample consisted of (385) university students who were randomly selected. The researcher prepared a study tool to collect information, consisting of (35) paragraphs divided over three axes, and applied it in the second semester of 2020/2021. The results of the study showed that all the axes of the study tool came to an average degree, the focus of the use of smart device applications in learning to an average degree, with a mathematical average of (2.093), and the results of the study also showed that the focus of the importance of using smart device applications in learning came also an average, with a mathematical average of (2.215). The results showed no statistically significant differences at the level (≤0.05) ain the study variables (gender, utilization rate).
