This study is mainly aimed at investigating the effectiveness of problem-based teaching in teaching historical concepts in the context of cyberspace. In response to the article's question about the capacities and limitations of the problem-oriented method, the hypothesis that cyberspace is a suitable platform for this type of teaching is proved due to the existing eight variables and is a suitable platform for this type of teaching. This study is performed by a Descriptive method of qualitative and analytical type and using the note-taking tool to collect data. The findings suggest that cyberspace has a vast potential and a variety of tools for teaching history through its variables including speed, beyond-time beyond-place peculiarities, universality, fluidity, augmented reality, multimedia, pervasiveness, and permanent accessibility.
