This paper's research objective is to test educational content with different dimensions of knowledge during a graphic basic design course, while also proposing teaching plans and opinions for courses in flipped classrooms as well as enhancing educational efficiency. It categorizes educational content of courses based on the dimensions of knowledge in the learning objectives of Bloom's taxonomy. 120 students are divided into four experimental groups to respectively under go flipped classroom learning by using different dimensions of knowledge involved in course content. Course pretests and post tests are used to obtain and analyze experimental data. Among this knowledge, factual and conceptual knowledge obtained during extra curricular independent learning as well as programmed and meta-cognitive knowledge obtained during in-class learning from a flipped classroom can stimulate student's learning initiative and also enhance learning efficiency. According to research results and student feedback, this paper will propose targeted categorization methods for course content and also suggest educational strategies for these courses' flipped classroom model.

It is time to put our top priority on the computer education to cope with rapid chage in technology and expansion of information. With 6th educational reform plan, from 1995 computer courses will be offered as elective subjects in the most of middle schools. However, detail planning for training of computer courses will be offered as elective subjects in the most of middle schools. However, detail planning for training of computer teachers and providing facilicles for computer education hasn't been adequately prepared yet, This will bring about confusion in computer education. The purpose of this study is to propose how to renovate the ordinary classroom into computer classroom. Followings are the suggestions for the educational specification for the renovated computer classroom for middle school in the urban area. 1) Purpose of computer classroom, 2) Size of computer classroom, 3) Curriculum design and class hour, 4) Facilities, 5) Environments, 6) Equipment and media(lighting and electric system, acoustical treatment, cooling/heating and ventilation system), 7) Activity area(Teacher workstation, Student workstation, Support area, Display surface). For the promotion of computer education, the legal, financial and administrative supports by concerned authorities should be established ahead of discussing the contents of computer education.

This study set off to explore the effect of interactive videos on developing mind mappings skills required for the common first-joint year students at Umm Al-Qura University. Towards this end, the experimental research design of a quasi-experimental of two experimental groups was adopted. The research tools consisted of an achievement test of the cognitive aspects of mind mapping skills and a product evaluation form of mind mapping skills. Results showed statistically significant differences at the significance level (α 0.05) between the mean scores of the two experimental groups who studied the educational video regardless of the type of video in the pre-post cognitive test of the mind mapping skills and the form of product evaluation. Besides, there are statistically significant differences at the significance level (0.05≥α) between the mean scores of the first experimental group who studied the conventional educational video and the mean scores of the second experimental group who studied the interactive educational video. This significant difference was in the posttest of mind mapping skills and in favor of the group who studied the interactive educational video. Nevertheless, there were no statistically significant differences at the significance level (0.05≥α) between the mean scores of the first and second experimental groups in the post-application of the product evaluation form of mind mapping skills. The researcher recommended using the interactive video in teaching courses to common first-year students. It also recommends organizing courses for the faculty members to train them on using interactive videos in their teaching.

In this study, we conducted mathematics teacher training courses for an applying of 'Socratic method' in school mathematics. Teacher training courses were conducted with a total of 3 hours for 68 secondary mathematics teachers. In these courses, we overviewed the characteristics of Socratic method. Moreover we examined the mathematics lessons by Socratic method. And we dealt with the educational examples of Socratic method identified in previous studies. In addition, the survey was conducted before and after the teacher training courses. Through the survey, teachers have an opportunity to check their knowledge on Socratic method and reflect on their mathematics class. Based on the survey response data, we analyzed mathematics teachers' knowledge on Socratic method and the changes in teachers' thinking on their mathematics class. Based on the findings of this study, we proposed three directions of teacher education.
