The researcher used the descriptive research approach. A Questionnaire was used to measure school bullying behaviors. The questionnaire consisted of (30) sentences, divided into three domains. Its consistency and reliability were verified. the results of the study. Results showed that there were no statistically significant differences at the significance level of (α ≤ 0.05) in the phenomenon of school bullying behavior among adolescents in public schools in the Qalqilya Governorate from the teachers’ perspective due to the variable of gender. There were no statistically significant differences at the significance level of (α ≤ 0.05) in the phenomenon of school bullying behavior among adolescents in public schools in the Qalqilya Governorate from the teachers’ perspective due to the variable of the school. The study recommended the need to focus on teacher, counselor and trainer professional development to deal effectively with students’ behavioral problems.","PeriodicalId":18713,"journal":{"name":"Modern Applied Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79852010","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The governments have been implementing measures to limit the number of people congregating in public places. Therefore, the Ministry of Education stated that all educational institutes should complete the 2019-2020-2 semester using online video conferences and virtual classes. The aim of this research is to study the effect of COVID-19 on teaching and learning during the last three months of lockdown after shifting to virtual classes. The research study the procedures applied by the College of Architecture Engineering in Dar Al Uloom University. The Adding value is improving the E-Learning process for the upcoming semesters and solving the negative points for a better education. To achieve this objective the researcher, distribute a survey to the students to scale their experience and record the positive points, and to find a solution to the negative points to solve these problems.

The researcher used the descriptive and analytical method and represented the study population in all Hikma Pharmaceuticals employees. The total number of included 520 administrative employees, the study sample consisted of 129 workers. The study concluded that the level of importance of organizational integration and the effectiveness of operational processes was high. Furthermore, it found that there is an effect of organizational integration in all its dimensions on the effectiveness of the operational processes at the company.

The proposed mathematical model has been contrasted with models based on quantitative prognostic methods in order to seek its validation. At the same time, the forecast errors of the proposed methods and the mathematical model have been calculated and compared. The results obtained have been applied to the four autonomous communities in Spain with the highest number of coronavirus infections during the study period, obtaining very satisfactory results and achieving very good approximations to the real data on the number of infected people in all the autonomous communities studied.
