Vasudeva, Sanjay; Colthorpe, Kay; Ernst, Hardy; Lam, Kai Wei – International Journal of Mobile and Blended Learning, 2019
Learning occurs in many forms, and learning through mobile devices is becoming increasingly common in higher education. Potentially, there are many ways students may implement mobile learning to enhance learning, and this may be influenced by students' confidence and preferences. To identify mobile learning behaviours, biomedical students (n=189)…

Applying Case-Based Method in Designing Self-Directed Online Instruction: A Formative Research Study
Luo, Heng; Koszalka, Tiffany A.; Arnone, Marilyn P.; Choi, Ikseon – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2018
This study investigated the case-based method (CBM) instructional-design theory and its application in designing self-directed online instruction. The purpose of this study was to validate and refine the theory for a self-directed online instruction context. Guided by formative research methodology, this study first developed an online tutorial…

Lai, Chun; Zheng, Dongping – ReCALL, 2018
The essence of mobile learning is learners' agentic use of mobile devices to create learning experiences across time and space. Thus, understanding learners' perceptions and preferred use of mobile devices for learning are critical to realizing the educational potentials of mobile learning. This study explored language learners' self-directed use…

Sahin, Muhittin; Keskin, Sinan; Yurdugül, Halil – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2018
An important advantage of e-learning environments is the numerical observation of the learning behaviors of students. The use of e-learning environments by students creates a learner data. From these learner data, the navigation patterns obtained by using educational data mining have a very important place in learning and teaching design. Studies…

Emma Awuor Agola – ProQuest LLC, 2020
Despite the advantages and increase in popularity of self-directed e-learning, this mode of learning is still reported to suffer from low voluntary enrollment rates, high learner dropout rates, as well as low retention of learning. Although there is a paucity of motivation research with regard to self-directed e-learning, a considerable number of…

Renick, Jennifer; Reich, Stephanie M. – Middle School Journal, 2023
The COVID-19 pandemic caused schools to shift to virtual or hybrid instruction, thrusting young adolescents into a very different educational environment. Stage-environment fit theory outlines ways in which educational contexts may, or may not, meet the developmental needs of young adolescents. Yet little is known about how virtual environments…

Chattaraj, Dishari; Vijayaraghavan, Arya Parakkate – Smart Learning Environments, 2021
The study, through the framework of mobility and space, explores the phenomenon of multiple shifts in learning spaces induced by COVID-19. The Interpretative Phenomenological Approach (IPA) is adopted to document the experiences and perceptions of learners caught within these spatial shifts--physical, online, and hybrid. Online interviews were…

Fontenelle-Tereshchuk, Daniela – Interchange: A Quarterly Review of Education, 2021
The COVID-19 crisis forced schools to temporarily close from March 2020 to June 2020, producing unpredictable changes in instructional contexts and patterns. A new concept of 'homeschooling' emerged which required parents to support the implementation of the curriculum through remote learning. This article is based on a case study focusing on the…

Marshman, Emily; DeVore, Seth; Singh, Chandralekha – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2020
With limited time available in the classroom, e-learning tools can supplement in-class learning by providing opportunities for students to study and learn outside of class. Such tools can be especially helpful for students who lack adequate prior preparation. However, one critical issue is ensuring that students, especially those in need of…
