In spite of the massive body of work reconceptualizing school mathematics in keeping with progressive approaches, research has shown that many school mathematics teachers still opt for more traditional methods. The present study sheds light on the mechanisms that shape mathematics teachers' knowledge, beliefs, and instructional practices and…

Contribution: Although a limited number of studies have compared textbooks used in introductory science courses (ISCs) and technical engineering courses (TECs), such a study has not been conducted regarding the Laplace transform (LT). The LT is one of the important topics that electrical engineering students learn as part of their undergraduate…

The introduction of digital artefacts for the teaching/learning of mathematics raises the issue of "transitioning" between the mathematical knowledge built in digital contexts and that built in a more traditional, non-digital context, and vice versa. In this article, we address this issue by presenting a teaching experiment aimed at…

E-textbooks are one of the commonly used sources to learn programming, in the domain of computer science and engineering. Programming related textbooks provide examples related to syntax, but the number of examples are often limited. Thus, beginners who use e-textbooks often visit other sources on the internet for examples and other information.…

The study aimed to identify the reality of media leaders' practice of electronic leadership from the point of view of faculty members in media faculties. It also correlated the relationship between the study sample's opinions about the media leaders' practice of electronic leadership according to the variable of gender and experience. To achieve…

Storytelling has been a part of our lives ever since humans made the first attempt to communicate with their fellow beings. In ancient times, before oral storytelling even appeared, humans drew pictures and symbols to communicate their stories. As a universal language which everyone can understand, stories have been passed on from generations to…

Successful reading comprehension relies on a complex set of skills and processes to derive meaning from text. These skills and processes have been articulated in extant accounts of reading comprehension in the context of both single and multiple texts. However, the increasingly complex digital ecosystem brought about by the Internet imposes…

Background: Digital texts are progressively becoming the medium of learning for students, but research has indicated that students tend to process information more superficially while reading on screen. It is therefore relevant to examine what strategies can support digital text comprehension. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the…

This study is focused on promoting self-reflection and self-regulation of learning through the use of digital tools to improve the academic performance of university students. Specifically, the main objective is to evaluate the impact of the use of collaborative ePortfolios on facilitating the comprehension of the concepts being studied. During…

In fall 2019, an electronic portfolio (ePortfolio) was implemented as the capstone project requirement for the Master's degree program with majors in library science and information science at the University of North Texas. This reflection provides a synopsis of the process of implementing an electronic portfolio as a capstone project, including…

This study examines the perceptions of Egyptian journalists of the effectiveness of professional training in digital journalism and determines the training-needs of journalists to adapt to innovative journalism practices. The study applies mixed descriptive methods based on The Motivation-Hygiene theory of what motivates employees. Data analysis…

This illustrative case study investigation was conducted to learn how Indonesian in-service teachers perceived teaching reading in a digital era and the challenges they encountered. The data were submitted by a total of 30 teachers who participated in the subject post for Indonesian junior high schools. Data collection strategies include…

The purpose of this study is to explore students' backtracking patterns in using a digital textbook, reveal the relationship between backtracking behaviors and academic performance as well as learning styles. This study was carried out for 2 semesters on 102 university students and they are required to use a digital textbook system called DITeL to…

The digitization of academic practices has transformed how research output is shared and discussed, with academic social network sites (ASNS) like Academia.edu and ResearchGate emerging as pivotal platforms. However, their uptake and implications in contexts like Latin America still need to be explored. This study examines the emerging tensions…

The use of academic corpora in second language (L2) writing pedagogy has gained popularity in recent decades, particularly in genre-specific contexts for graduate-level L2 students (Charles, 2007; Lee & Swales, 2006). However, its overall effectiveness is mainly observed within classroom contexts, influenced by various contextual and…
