In recent years, online learning has received more attention than ever before. One of the most challenging aspects of online education is the students' assessment since academic integrity could be violated due to various cheating behaviors in online examinations. Although a considerable number of literature reviews exist about online learning,…

Due to the unprecedented growth in available data collected by e-learning platforms, including platforms used by massive open online course (MOOC) providers, important opportunities arise to structurally use these data for decision making and improvement of the educational offering. Student retention is a strategic task that can be supported by…

This phenomenological study explored how art museum educators and administrators in art museums in the Netherlands and Belgium perceive technology enhanced learning. The participants consisted of 14 museum educators. Interviews from this study were recorded and transcribed for further identification of themes within the data. A general conclusion…

According to research, at least 50% of students participate in online courses as opposed to face-to-face courses in non-profit, Higher Education (HE) institutions. Relatively little research has explored the way students' performance in non-profit institutions is influenced by participating in an online course versus face-to-face course. As a…

As the popularity of online learning continues to grow, so do concerns about online student success. This study aims to contribute to the continuous improvement of online learning and improve outcomes for a distinct group of online learners. Utilizing social presence, the expectancy-value theory of motivation, and capitalizing on innovative…

This qualitative study sought to understand middle school students' developing mathematical arguments in a linguistically and culturally supportive classroom that featured mathematical writing and oral conferencing. Writing tasks and conferencing focused on developing the core algebraic practice of justifying by emphasizing audience and revision.…

Researchers and teachers around the world have created newsoftware and hardware to develop, reuse, and deploy online laboratories (labs). However, due to the nature of labs, most of the available solutions depend greatly on where and how online labs can be used in the first place. Thus, there have been multiple design solutions and great…

Improving the pedagogical effectiveness of programming training platforms is a hot topic that requires the construction of fine and exploitable representations of learners' programs. This article presents a new approach for learning program embeddings. Starting from the hypothesis that the function of a program, but also its "style", can…

While lengthy teacher training programs with reflection were beneficial for promoting teachers' teaching performance and perception of teaching, it is still unclear whether a short online training program can promote preservice teachers' in-depth thinking of their learning and teaching. This study focused on the instructional design of a short…

Understanding how students engage with feedback is often reduced to a study of feedback messages that sheds little light on effects. Using the emerging notion of feedback encounters as an analytical lens, this study examines what characterizes productive feedback encounters when learning online. Drawing from a cross-national digital ethnographic…

Purpose: This paper explores current teaching and learning practices, benefits and challenges in the implementation of Internationalization at Home (IaH) in higher education. Design/methodology/approach: The study follows a systematic review (SR) protocol in accordance with the PRISMA Statement, covering published research from 2018 to 2022.…

The COVID-19 pandemic has forced a shift from traditional face-to-face instruction to online learning. We analyze how this shift has affected learning outcomes, using a rich data set from a financial literacy training of schoolteachers in Armenia. Online training worked well for relatively simple skills (acquiring theoretical financial knowledge)…

In an online learning environment, both instruction and assessments take place virtually where students are primarily responsible for managing their own learning. This requires a high level of self-regulation from students. Many online students, however, lack self-regulation skills and are ill-prepared for autonomous learning, which can cause…

The proliferation of communication technologies in recent years has significantly contributed to the swift transformation of education. The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic at the beginning of 2020 caused further drastic changes in education, making digital transformation one of its most apparent attributes. This evolution has necessitated a call…

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to apply systems modeling to explore the usability of the online learning platform in the future compared to its usefulness during the pandemic era. Design/methodology/approach: The applied systems research methodology has been used to develop a stock-flow model encompassing enablers and constraints for…
