Abstract

Abstract:                                   
   The basic education system has been developed in the direction of applying the cognitive integration approach under the name of the so-called integrated treatment, which has been translated into the presence of multidisciplinary curricula in response to societal transformations, global trends, and the information revolution, as well as the ineffectiveness of the education system based on disciplined, isolated disciplines in meeting the needs of students, keeping pace with the requirements of the times, and dealing with real problems.
     However, the possibility of success of modern educational approaches in the educational system depends on how classroom teachers implement them in light of the availability of the necessary requirements and overcoming potential obstacles. Hence, this study comes to reveal the obstacles that prevent the application of the cognitive integration approach as an emerging trend in education reform. In order to formulate a proposed vision to activate its application in the future.
     The field study revealed the multiplicity and intertwining of obstacles between procedural, administrative and organizational, and others related to the teacher, student, and guardian, and obstacles related to infrastructure, institutional capacity, and others related to the nature of the academic courses.
