To achieve the objectives of the study, the descriptive survey design was used. The sample of the study consisted of (110) male and female teachers of students with learning disabilities, of whom (53) male and (57) female teachers were chosen by the stratified random method from the educational regions in the south of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in the second semester of the academic year 2022/2023. A questionnaire consisting of (22) items was used, distributed in three domains: planning, implementation, and evaluation, after verifying the indications of its validity and reliability.
