Objective: To assess of Science Teachers' Awareness towards Communicable Diseases Control in Baghdad City
Primary Schools
Methodology: A descriptive study was conducted, included (100) primary school, (50) in Al-Rassafa sector, and
(50) in Al-Karkh sector, from March 5th 2012 to March 15th 2013, to assess of science teachers' awareness
towards communicable diseases control. A cluster sample of (100) Science teachers (males and females) were
selected, as one teacher from each school. A questionnaire format was used for data collection. The validity of
questionnaire was estimated through a penal of experts related to the field of study, and its reliability was
estimated through a pilot study conducted in (20) schools (excluded from the original sample) which included (20)
teachers from April 8th 2012 to April 14th 2012. Data were analyzed through the application of descriptive and
inferential statistical analysis.
Results: The results of the study indicated that (78%) of sample were female, and (39%) of them their ages were
between (40-49) years old, (65%) of them were married, while (21%) of them were single, and (50%) of them were
institute graduates. Also the study indicated that (26%) of teachers had (15–19) years of employment in teaching
sector. Furthermore, (58 %) of sample had no opportunity to be involved in training courses concerning
communicable diseases control. The results of this study indicate that, teachers' awareness was poor (in adequate
awareness) towards communicable diseases control, immunity and immunization, and also concerning health
problems in school.

communicable diseases and how to control them with adequate explanation of the most important diseases in
school provided with photos and illustrations, and emphasis on continuous sessions concerning communicable
diseases control for teachers in all primary schools
The current study aims to examine the level of problems faced by university students in distance learning, in addition to identify the differences in these problems in terms of the availability of internet services, gender, college, GPA, interactions, academic cohort, and family economic status. The study sample consisted of (3172) students (57.3% females). The researchers developed a questionnaire with (32) items to measure distance learning problems in four areas: Psychological (9 items), academic (10 items), technological (7 items), and study environment (6 items). The responses are scored on a (5) point Likert Scale ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). Means, standard deviations, and Multivariate Analysis of Vari

An experimental approach with a quasi-experimental design called pre-test and post-test control design was used. The research sample consisted of (60) students, who were selected in a random cluster method, (30) students in the experimental group studied the unit "The Nature of Material" using the (PEOE) model, and (30) students in the control group studied according to the prevailing method of teaching.

Urban Balance is one of the important indicators that leads to an assessment of the urbanization process in a particular country , province or even a city that is multi-centered. By examining the data related to Anba province, it was found that the value of this indicator is equal to 0.96, which is less than the absolute one, and therefore the urbanization in the province is distributed collectively
The development of a mathematical or statistical model for estimating urban growth is a complex process due to the overlap between indicators or variables that can be adopted to calculate estimate growth rates Al-Qaim city has been considered as an example to develop a statistical method by which changes
