The results indicated that all the degrees of using strategies are high, and the highest used strategies are the strategy for developing thinking skills, followed by the strategy for developing cognitive skills, and finally, the strategy for improving the environment. The results also showed that there are no statistically significant differences in the effectiveness of using modern teaching strategies in developing students' skills due to the variable (workplace, specialization, number of experience years), and the presence of statistically significant differences attributable to the scientific qualification variable in favor of scientific qualification (Ph.D.). In the field of developing social skills. The research concluded with several recommendations and proposals in light of their results.
