Περιγραφή
Περίληψη:The current study aims to explore postgraduate students' level of electronic search skills at the University of Hail. To achieve the objective of the study, a 34-item questionnaire is developed and the descriptive analytical approach is adopted. The study sample consists of (62) male and female postgraduate students randomly selected from all faculties of the university during the first semester of the academic year 2019/2020. The results of the study show that the level of electronic search skills among postgraduates is medium. The results also show that there is a statistically significant difference at the level of electronic search skills due to the variable of the cumulative average in favor of a very good average. Besides, the results also show that there are no statistically significant differences at the level of electronic search skills due to the variables of the student's specialization in their first university degree or due to gender. The study recommends raising the level of postgraduate students’ participation in electronic search by providing an electronic learning environment to bridge the gap they have by offering electronic courses that refine and develop their practical and search skills.
