“…-It encourages students to represent situations by simulating certain models, provides them with practical experience to practice their communication skills, provides them with opportunities to practice speaking skills, and stimulates in them the desire to express themselves (Harmar, 2007). -Adding to the atmosphere of pleasure, and alleviating the feeling of boredom and routine, which encourages them to show their personality inside the classroom (Al-Hamdani, 2002). The positive results of the speaking skill (individually) can be attributed to: -The superiority of the experimental group's female students in intellectual skills is due to the fact that the simulation activities worked to organize the experimental group's ideas.…”

The current study aimed to investigate the impact of simulation activities on improving speaking skills among fourth-grade female students in Jordan. To achieve the study's objective, an experimental approach was followed, utilizing a quasi-experimental design. The study included (78) fourth-grade female students from a school affiliated with the Directorate of Education in Al-Ramtha District, selected purposively and divided into two groups; (39) students in experimental group who were taught using simulation activities, and (39) students in control group who were taught using conventional method. The study results revealed a statistically significant impact of simulation activities on enhancing speaking skills, both collectively and individually, in favor of the experimental group. Based on the study findings, the researchers recommend the incorporation of simulation activities in teaching speaking skills.

“…A good cryptography curriculum is presented in [1], which covers: Mathematics: integer factorization problem, RSA problem, quadratic residuosity problem, computing square roots in Zn, discrete logarithm, Diffie-Hellman problem, composite mod, computing individual bits, Tsubset sum problem, factoring polynomials over finite fields, probabilistic primality tests, (True) Primality tests, prime number generation, irreducible polynomials over Zp, generators and elements of high order, cryptographically secure pseudorandom bit generation …”

“…A normal cryptography course consists of the following different topics: "classical algorithms, block cipher, stream cipher (some curriculum ignore this part), digital signature, hash function, authentication and key managements" [1] Some curriculums also add a mathematical background to cover some aspects of the number theory, while others leave this to another course as a prerequisite. Whatever the case, the main issue in presenting the cryptography curriculum to the type of student backgrounds and their track major, the question is, "Do we present the same curriculum in the same way to all four types of student backgrounds (mathematics, computer science, and information security)?"…”

This paper examines the missing factors in cryptography algorithms curriculum designed to teach Information security (information assurance) to students. Normally, there are four different aspects to organizing a cryptography curriculum for a curriculum developer, drawing from the work inspiration of their background, their field of study, and their target degree. Indeed, a cryptography course can be taught in four different departments: Computer Science, Mathematics, computer engineers and Information Security. The differences of the curriculum between these four fields are not very clear, however. In this article, we present our view on curriculum development and teaching aspects for these four different fields, where cryptography could be presented in a way to serve the knowledge flow and knowledge support for the students in their track.
