A total of 475 teachers (236 males and 239 females) from 24 secondary schools in Nablus participated in the survey that employed a 23-item questionnaire measuring the readiness constructs on a 5-point Likert scale.

The data were analyzed quantitatively using descriptive statistics, independent-samples t-tests, Cohen’s d for effect sizes, and Pearson’s product-moment correlation tests. The results showed that secondary school teachers in Nablus were quite psychologically ready to use e-learning, but this aspect was not equally supported by technological and equipment readiness. Technological, equipment and psychological readiness were all found to be significant correlates of e-learning readiness with quite strong influences. Statistically significant gender differences were detected for technological, equipment and overall e-learning readiness, but not for psychological readiness. However, the magnitude of the differences was considered small based on the interpretation of Cohen’s d for effect sizes.
