Abstract:
In an increasingly globalised world, public education reform in Saudi Arabia has been given high priority as a driver of economic and social development and its sustainability. This reform has impacted on the working lives of school principals, who are continually faced with complex global challenges in the education system, including higher expectations for schools and school leaders, moving towards decentralisation, making schools more autonomous in their decision making and holding them more accountable for results, with expectations of improved overall student performance while serving mor

Abstract:
Before the discovery of oil Saudi Arabia's economic structure was limited, and the majority of the population was engaged in herding and agriculture. Social life was also very simple. The Saudi economy has made tremendous strides since commercial oil production began in 1938. A series of national development plans was formulated, and the government has devoted considerable attention to the improvement of education, the Bedouin lifestyle, and many other aspects of society.

Abstract:
Women's work participation in Saudi society has been characterised as low and limited to a few gender-segregated fields; mainly in education and social services. However, previous social studies provide limited explanations for this, and at the same time little is known about the history of women's work in the pre-Oil era. Today younger generations of women are facing high rates of unemployment and underemployment, which requires a deep analysis and understanding.

In Saudi Arabia, as part of a nationwide programme of educational reform and espoused move to a more de-centralised system, a detailed set of new powers have recently been granted to head teachers with the aim of providing them with more autonomy.

Today, concerns for environmental quality affect nearly all walks of life. In response to demands for resource conservation, architecture has become more complicated because the design process now depends on a large number of different disciplines. Now more than ever, building owners and users have many requirements—informed by developments in knowledge, technology, and science. These stakeholders are asking architects to design for lower operational cost, good daylighting and views, and higher indoor environmental quality (IEQ).

This study explores the nature and extent of social change within Saudi Arabia since 1970, focusing on the 'Utaiba tribe living in Al-Duwadmi province.

Abstract:
This qualitative study of parent-child communication examined the views of parents and children in a province of Saudi Arabia concerning how family interactions, parental authority and children’s behaviours are affected by the globalising influences of media and technology. Impacts reported include how tension in family communication arises as children develop a hybrid culture through accessing Western ideas and ideologies that are profoundly challenging to traditional Islamic culture.

Specifically, there is lack of literature on the individual factors that drive or delay the adoption of advanced technologies such as the Enterprise Resource Planning system ERP. It motivated me to carry out a study that investigates the non-linear views of change, in order to provide a general picture of how external and internal factors influence employees to accept or reject an ERP system. My thesis explores individual choices and behaviours and the socio-cu
