2023	Statistically comparison between the performance of students in urban education and distance study for students of Kut University College in Iraq for the years 2018 to 2021.	Humanities & Natural Sciences Journal
Abstract There are some force majeure circumstances that the countries of the world are going through that make them resort to contingency plans or adopt alternative plans. And that what happened during the period of the world’s exposure to the (Covid 19) pandemic and the disruption of social life as a result of the societal closure, which led to the majority of countries in the world resorting to adopting the study through electronic communication platforms instead of attendance. The majority of countries were not sufficiently prepared to face such a challenge because of the lack of experience of educational institutions and their educational staff and even students to face such a challenge. Also, the infrastructure and logistics were not at the same level that would help it face the new situation. In light of the foregoing, what happened in Iraq was not isolated from what happened in all countries of the world, as studies in universities and colleges in Iraq turned into a remote study system, and this is what happened at Kut University College during the period of the epidemic for the years 2019 to 2022 . Because of the lack of available information on the outcome of educational efforts in the light of distance education, there was a need to conduct scientific research with the aim of collecting facts, data and indicators about the new situation in light of the conditions of the pandemic. Herein lies the importance of this research and the need for it. The limits of the current research are in targeting the academic years in attendance and distance studies and comparing the performance of students in the light of the graduation results of three batches of the Department of Medical Laboratory Technologies at Al-Kut University College for the years from 2018 to 2022. Because of the lack of available information on the outcome of educational efforts in the light of distance education, there was a need to conduct scientific research with the aim of collecting facts, data and indicators about the new situation in light of the conditions of the pandemic. Herein lies the importance of this research and the need for it. The limits of the current research are in targeting the academic years in attendance and distance studies and comparing the performance of students in the light of the graduation results of three batches of the Department of Medical Laboratory Technologies at Al-Kut University College for the years from 2018 to 2022. And the hypotheses of the research that there are no moral differences between the performance of students in attendance and working hours remotely through electronic communication. The research procedures to achieve the objectives of this research were by using t-tests for two unconnected samples for the purpose of knowing whether there are significant differences between the attendance system and the remote system via platforms. Electronic communication and at the level of significance(0.01) After conducting the statistical tests and reviewing and discussing the results, it was found that there are no statistically significant differences between the attendance system and the distance study. In light of the achieved results, the researchers recommended the need to seek to raise the level of educational performance, reduce the dispersion between students’ grades, adopt the hybrid system in the future, develop educational means and technologies, and continue conducting research in other departments of the college with the aim of obtaining educational indicators that contribute to raising performance in the future.
