Abstract

The current research aimed to reveal the effect of E-Crowdsourcing pattern (competition-based / Collaboration-based / Co-opetition) using social media platforms on developing scientific research skills for postgraduate students at the faculty of Education, Umm Al-Qura University. To achieve the research objectives, the descriptive analytical and the semi-experimental approaches were used. The research sample was consisted from all postgraduate students at the faculty of Education, Umm Al-Qura University in 2020/2021, were (66) students after excluding (15) students of the exploratory experiment. They were divided into three experimental groups, each one (22) students, the first experimental group learned using the competition-based Crowdsourcing, the second experimental group learned using the Collaboration-based Crowdsourcing, and the third group learned using the Co-opetition Crowdsourcing. The research tools consisted of an achievement test to measure the cognitive aspect of scientific research skills and an observation card for students' performance of Scientific Research skills. The research results found that there were statistically significant differences at the level of ≤ (0.05) between the average scores of postgraduate students in the post application of the cognitive achievement test for scientific research skills, and for the post application of the skill performance observation card for scientific research skills due to the main effect of the difference in the Crowdsourcing pattern (competition-based / Collaboration-based / Co-opetition) using social media platforms, in favor of Co-opetition pattern.
