This study investigates the preparedness of school students in grades 9-12 to engage in physics
project-based hybrid learning within the Sultanate of Oman. Using survey methodology, the
research employed the online learning readiness scale and self-directed learning readiness scale
following an evaluation of the questionnaire’s reliability. A total of 383 physics students
participated in the electronic survey conducted across 11 educational governorates in Oman, and
descriptive statistics were employed for the analysis. Most participants, predominantly from grade
9, were situated in the Muscat Governorate, consistent with the targeted research population. The
findings indicate a generally moderate level of readiness among school physics students (grades
9-12) for engaging in project-based hybrid learning. The study enhances the comprehension of
student readiness dynamics amid evolving educational methods, specifically in physics project-based hybrid learning in the Sultanate of Oman.
