“…The prevalence of the internet, social networks, and even photo, video and text editing software for a more organized online presence, require the knowledge and management of different technologies. Furthermore, the study by Sun [37] shows students' tendency to generate new ideas, which could be useful for production and service implementations, and also for the interactive exchange of the information, all of which require fine knowledge of ICT skills.…”

Background: (1) The COVID-19 pandemic has generated significant changes in teaching methods around the world, and the ideal of online education has become a reality. (2) Methods: A questionnaire was modified for this study in order to determine the following levels of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) skills: file creation, file management, the use of emails, the use of the internet, and online communication. In total, 360 students from the Faculty of Sports and Physical Education (FSPE), University of Novi Sad, participated in the study. (3) Results: The results show that there are differences between the estimated level of ICT skills and the ICT skills used in online education, such that students estimate their level of ICT skills as being higher than is necessary for online education (p < 0.05). There is also a correlation between the satisfaction with online education and ICT skills, showing that students with higher ICT knowledge are more satisfied with online education (p < 0.05). There is another correlation between the satisfaction with online education and the frequency of ICT use—the more ICTs are included, the more satisfied the students will be (p < 0.05). (4) Conclusions: The results of this study can serve as a recommendation for the implementation of FSPE students’ training in ICT skills, as well as an important basis for the systematic creation, improvement, and sustainability of online education in universities.

Purpose: This study explored whether instructional characteristics, learner characteristics, family socioeconomic status, and gender influence creativity in the context of programming education in China.Methods: A total of 851 upper-secondary-school students in Beijing, China, were surveyed using the Creativity Scale, Programming Learning Scale, Programming Teaching Scale and Family Socioeconomic Status Questionnaire. SPSS (version 22) was used for correlation analysis, t-test and regression analysis.Results: (1) Teachers’ programming teaching method and management; students’ programming learning approach, attitude, and engagement; gender; and family economic capital were all significantly associated with creativity. (2) There were significant differences between males and females in terms of creativity, programming learning approach and programming learning attitude. (3) Learner attitudes, engagement, and approach, and their family economic capital, were strong predictors of creativity, with the strongest influence of learners’ attitudes to programming learning and weaker influence of family economic capital.Conclusion: The main factors that influence creativity in the context of programming education are programming teaching method, programming teaching management, programming learning approach, programming learning attitude, programming learning engagement and family economic capital. Among these, learner factors (attitude, engagement, and approach) and family economic capital are the key factors influencing creativity. These findings provide a basis for improving the creativity of Chinese programming learners and inspire teachers to consider learner factors and gender differences as they design and manage their instruction. Furthermore, the influence of family economic capital on the creativity of learners cannot be ignored.

The research was conducted on (68) first-grade secondary students, and the educational experimental approach with two groups was followed, where the sample was divided into an experimental group and its number is (34) students, and a control group of (34) students. The research applied the self-regulated learning skills Scale before teaching both the experimental and control groups and then teaching the unit (Civilization of Pharaonic Egypt) by using the applications of social media to the experimental groups, and by using the usual way to the control group, and then applying the self-regulated learning skills scale after teaching. The results showed that there was a statistically significant difference at the level of significance (0.01) between the mean scores of the experimental group and the control group students in the post-application of the self-regulated learning skills scale in favor of the experimental group. Results approved that using social media to teach history has helped students take responsibility for their learning through assignments and tasks performed by students while studying individually or collectively, enabling students to continuously evaluate their learning process. The researcher made several recommendations such as modifying the content of the subjects to become more flexible when used in social media and training teachers to use social media in the teaching process of different subjects.
