Online teacher professional development is widely regarded as a promising way to improve the quality of teachers and the effect of teaching. Micro-learning, which has the potential to fit the learner's personalized learning needs through a variety of small educational resources and flexible learning opportunities, could be an efficient way for the…

The study proposes two new measures, time and location entropy, to depict students' physical spatio-temporal contexts when engaged in an online course. As "anytime, anywhere" access has been touted as one of the most attractive features of online learning, the question remains as to the success of students when engaging in online courses…

This scoping review examines studies using eye tracking technology to monitor learning and performance in virtual or mixed reality settings. The aim of this review is to describe the various ways in which eye tracking devices have been deployed in relation to key aspects of virtual reality and mixed reality environments, list the eye tracking…

The successful application of the e-learning system is of great significance to the implementation, management and continuous improvement of blended learning in higher education. Hence, we focused on identifying key factors affecting college students' adoption of the e-learning system in mandatory blended learning environments. In this study, the…

With reference to the Technology-based Learning model for flipped classrooms, a literature review on Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI) papers published in the Web of Science (WOS) database was conducted, with the application of flipped learning in science education as the research topic. The study analyzed the existing research on author…

As a key variable determining technology acceptance and adoption, the perceived ease of technology use (PEU) has been in the focus of a considerable body of research. This research examined the external factors that influence perceived ease of use, such as computer self-efficacy and perceived enjoyment, but yielded inconsistent findings and…

This article argues for Art + Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-thons as feminist interventions and pedagogical events that facilitate participants' Wikipedia literacy and acquisition of learning outcomes, especially critical thinking, digital literacy, and technical skills. Drawing on data collected at a Spring 2018 Edit-a-thon at Indiana University of…

During the COVID-19 pandemic period of almost two years, online teaching was adopted by Higher Educational Institutes (HEIs) mostly as an emergency measure to maintain endurance in teaching-learning activities in academics. Although a lot of research works have focussed on the teaching-learning strategies deployed during the pandemic period, the…

This study developed an online role-playing history education game with real-person NPCs (Non-Player Characters). The game features real people playing NPC characters, and provides a multi-dimensional scaffolding mechanism with realistic story and historical scenes, allowing learners to engage in strategic planning and problem solving during a…

Among the different sectors affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, educational institutions had vast changes in terms of implementing instructional programs via a distance mode to ensure continuous teaching and learning. While studies documenting adjustments during the pandemic highlight challenges such as material constraints, lack of training among…

The rapid growth in diversity of information and communication technologies (ICT) enables a range of teaching methods, learning support strategies, and education settings to be developed. Questions about appropriate, effective, and efficient use of educational technology in teaching mathematics have been gaining more attention. This study focuses…

The online learning practice has already demonstrated that the quality of interaction and motivation in collaborative learning is not as good as expected, due to the loneliness and burnout feeling spawned by inadequate learning status information about others. This study proposed a model on group awareness to feedback information of group learning…

This study evaluates the effect of game mechanics by employing serious games and gamification for improving learning outcomes. This is done by considering the performances of the students in terms of the test scores. In the quasi-experimental set-up, which consists of 108 students in their intact three classes attended a series of lessons on…

Most online learning researchers use resource recommendation and retrieve based on learning performance and learning style to provide accurate learning resources, but it is a closed and passive adaptive way. Learners always do not know the recommendation rationale and just receive the result-oriented recommended resources without having a chance…

Augmented reality apps are a novel technology in e-learning that enhances students' learning faster in virtual classrooms. Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, traditional teaching mechanisms pushed back due to the quick spread of Coronavirus disease. This study investigates university students' intention towards e-learning through augmented…
