Relationship Between Metacognitive Skills and Information Processing Skills Among Al-Quds University Students
Metacognitive skills and information processing are key concepts in the field of education, they are crucial in the learning process. The present study aimed to identify the relationship between metacognitive skills and information processing skills among the students of Al-Quds University. The study instruments were applied on a sample of 393 male and female students. The results showed that there was a positive correlation between metacognitive skills and information processing among Al-Quds University students. The findings revealed statistically significant differences in the level of metacognitive skills, attributed to gender in favor of female students. However, there were no statistically significant differences due to faculty or academic level. The findings also showed that there were no statistically significant differences in the level of information processing skills attributable to gender and academic level. However, there were statistically significant differences in the level of information processing due to the faculty variable in favor of the Faculty of Science
Metacognitive Skills among Left-Handed Students in Al-Quds university
The aim of this study was to reveal the metacognitive skills among left-handed students at Al-Quds
University. The study population consisted of all left-handed students at Al-Quds University. Data obtained
from a purposive sample of 47 left-handed male and female students was analyzed using Statistical Package
for Social Sciences (SPSS). The findings showed that left-handed students at Al-Quds University had a low
degree of metacognitive skills. It was found that there were differences attributable to gender in favor of
female students, but no differences attributable to college (Science and Humanities). The findings also
revealed differences due to the overall grade point average (GPA) in favor of the students with a GPA of
more than 80%. It is recommendedthat students must be taught metacognitive strategies through: helping
them to plan and evaluate their learning process, stimulating their thinking processes by giving them
assignments that require higher levels of thinking and challenge their mental abilities in order to obtain
knowledge during th
The International Natural Product Sciences Taskforce (INPST) and the power of Twitter networking exemplified through #INPST hashtag analysis
Background: The development of digital technologies and the evolution of open innovation approaches have enabled the creation of diverse virtual organizations and enterprises coordinating their activities primarily online. The open innovation platform titled "International Natural Product Sciences Taskforce" (INPST) was established in 2018, to bring together in collaborative environment individuals and organizations interested in natural product scientific research, and to empower their interactions by using digital communication tools. Methods: In this work, we present a general overview of INPST activities and showcase the specific use of Twitter as a powerful networking tool that was used to host a one-week "2021 INPST Twitter Networking Event" (spanning from 31st May 2021 to 6th June 2021) based on the application of the Twitter hashtag #INPST. Results and Conclusion: The use of this hashtag during the networking event period was analyzed with Symplur Signals (https://www.symplur.com/), revealing a total of 6,036 tweets, shared by 686 users, which generated a total of 65,004,773 impressions (views of the respective tweets). This networking event's achieved high visibility and participation rate showcases a convincing example of how this social media platform can be used as a highly effective tool to host virtual Twitter-based international biomedical research events
