The sample contained 50% of the total number of Mathematics educational video tutorials. These video tutorials were published during the period 2015-2016 for Saudi 1st grade of primary school. Two evaluators observed and assessed the content of videos. The instrument of study consists of 53 indicators under three main areas (e.g. Educational, Documentation and personal, Technical area) and 11 criteria.
