| Abstract | ||
| Investment in University education is an important trend to achieve excellence in education and research outcomes according to global competitiveness standards. In this context, a particular emphasis is given to educational research due to its importance in developing educational practices that ensure proper knowledge acquisition, production and employment. This trend was reflected in Saudi Arabia through its 2030 vision, which stressed on transformation and change to a knowledge-based society, and worked on it through its Universities, among which King Abdulaziz University is of prime importance. Therefore, the goal of this study was to review the status of educational research in King Abdulaziz University, and propose a conceptual plan to develop innovation skills in it. A descriptive analytical method was applied, using a questionnaire prepared based on the literature on global competitiveness standards. The results showed a weakness in innovation skills in educational research of University educationists, and the presence of many constraints and challenges facing it. It was recommended that the University should increase its attention to innovation in educational research in light of global competitiveness standards, and proposed a conceptual plan to achieve this. | ||
