Abstract

The study aimed to identify the degree of the practice of the heads of the scientific departments at the Faculty of Education, Tur Al-Baha - University of Lahj - for systems thinking from the point of view of the faculty members. To achieve the study’s objectives, the descriptive analytical method was used. A questionnaire consisting of (39) items was designed for this purpose, distributed on three axes: self-oriented systems thinking, others-oriented systems thinking, and action-oriented systems thinking. The questionnaire was applied to a stratified random sample of (82) faculty members from the Faculty of Education, Tur Al-Baha. The results showed that the degree of the practice of the heads of the scientific departments at the College of Education in Al-Baha for the systems thinking (as a whole) from the point of view of the faculty members was (medium) tending to the weak, as it obtained an arithmetic average of (2.74).

     The results showed that there were no statistically significant differences at the level (a > 0.05) in the estimates of the faculty members due to the variable (educational qualification), and the results showed that there were statistically significant differences at the level (a > 0.05) in the estimates of the faculty members due to the variable of gender) and in favour of the male gender, the results also showed that there are statistically significant differences at the level (a > 0.05) in the estimates of faculty members due to the variable (experience) and in favour of faculty members with advanced experiences (more than 20 years).

     Through these findings, the study recommended several recommendations, the most important of which are:

-    It is necessary for the university to train the heads of scientific departments and all its employees on advanced technology techniques regularly and continuously.

-    Awareness of the methods of practising systems thinking in university work and collectively.

-    Conducting in-depth studies on current and future challenges that impede the functioning of systems thinking and management of educational and educational systems and raising awareness towards systems relations through various media.
