Digital Transformation in Education: Policy Implementation and its Challenges in Palestine

Abstract

This study examines the digital transformation of education within the Palestinian context, focusing on the enactment of policies and the challenges faced in their effective implementation. As global education systems increasingly embrace online and technology-driven learning, the study was carriedout to highlight significant structural and contextual constraints in Palestine. These include limited resources, insufficient digital infrastructure, and socio-political constraints. The research underscores the importance of tailored strategies to overcome these obstacles, enabling digital education to contribute to improved educational outcomes and alignment with sustainable development goals. Key issues such as the role of adaptive policies, the impact of socio-economic disparities, and the necessity for infrastructural investment are discussed. Moreover, the analysis emphasizes the need for comprehensive teacher training and community engagement to mitigate resistance to digital change. By addressing these challenges through targeted interventions and collaborative frameworks, the study proposes actionable solutions for fostering an inclusive and resilient digital education system ultimately paving the way for long-term educational and societal development in Palestine.
