Martin, Florence; Sun, Ting; Turk, Murat; Ritzhaupt, Albert D. – International Review of Research in Open and Distributed Learning, 2021
Synchronous online learning (SOL) provides an opportunity for instructors to connect in real-time with their students though separated by geographical distance. This meta-analysis examines the overall effect of SOL on cognitive and affective educational outcomes, while using asynchronous online learning or face-to-face learning as control groups.…

Fidaldo, Patricia; Thormann, Joan – International Review of Research in Open and Distributed Learning, 2017
This research was conducted to explore whether students enrolled in graduate level courses found some Universal Design for Learning (UDL) strategies useful and if they actually used them. The strategies we investigated were presenting course information in alternative formats including PowerPoints with voiceover, screencasts, and videos as an…

Technology Matters--The Impact of Transactional Distance on Satisfaction in Online Distance Learning
Weidlich, Joshua; Bastiaens, Theo J. – International Review of Research in Open and Distributed Learning, 2018
Transactional distance (TD), the perception of psychological distance between the student and his peers, his instructor/teacher, and the learning content, has long been a prominent construct in research on distance education. Today, distance education primarily takes place over the internet, with technology mediating engagement and communication.…

Zhang, Yin; Chu, Samuel K. W. – International Review of Research in Open and Distributed Learning, 2016
In recent years, a number of models concerning problem solving systems have been put forward. However, many of them stress on technology and neglect the research of problem solving itself, especially the learning mechanism related to problem solving. In this paper, we analyze the learning mechanism of problem solving, and propose that when…

Akcaoglu, Mete; Lee, Eunbae – International Review of Research in Open and Distributed Learning, 2016
Social presence is difficult to achieve, but an imperative component of online learning. In this study, we investigated the effect of group size on students' perceptions of social presence in two graduate-level online courses, comparing small group versus whole class discussions. Our results indicated that when in small group discussions, students…
