Oral practice is challenging for foreign language education, and Corrective Feedback (CF) is often used to point out learners' pronunciation errors and to help them improve their oral skills in foreign language courses. CF is generally considered as a necessary condition for foreign language acquisition, and "reflection" and…

Students learn not only directly from their teachers and books, but also by using their computers, tablets, and phones. Monitoring these learning environments creates new opportunities for teachers to track students' progress. In particular, this article is based on gathering real-time events as students interact with learning tools and materials…

During the digital age, self-directed learning has emerged as an effective teaching strategy in designing class activities within the educational sphere, prompting an investigation into its impact on the effectiveness of instruction in the K-12 context. This article presents a meta-analysis aimed at examining the efficacy of self-directed learning…

At present, issues of the education system and quality improvement are topical in the whole world. Today, universities need to be prepared to offer young people education that makes them competitive in these new working conditions. When considering development of the education, they shall understand necessity of changing both content and form of…

Background: Implementing English medium instruction (EMI) has become a proliferating measure in higher education to embrace globalization. Nevertheless, university students reported various challenges in taking EMI courses. Objectives: This study investigated the effect of the computer-mediated terminology pretraining on university students' EMI…

This dissertation consists of five chapters. The first chapter serves to introduce the Modern Learning Environment (MLE) by discussing the challenges of designing and measuring student performance in these novel environments. Chapter two of the dissertation reviews the current research base of studying self-regulated learning in the modern…

The paper presents the results of systematic review of modern scientific publications devoted to the digitalization of education. A review of Russian and foreign studies allows us to conclude that there is a relationship between high academic performance of students and the use of digital technologies. Other advantages of digitalization are:…

This study analyzes the impact of adding a review exercises module to an online tool used in a software engineering degree program. The objective of the module is to promote students' self-learning effort to improve their performance. We also intend to determine if this new feature has any effect on the amount of code copies detected in lab…

In this article, we propose the concept of "Autonomic Cycle Of Learning Analysis Tasks" (ACOLAT), which defines a set of tasks of learning analysis, whose objective is to improve the learning process. The data analysis has become a fundamental area for the knowledge discovery from data extracted from different sources. In the autonomic…

Less than optimal student success in gateway courses figures prominently in college noncompletion. Past findings suggest that "U-Pace" instruction holds promise for increasing student success. However, all published studies of "U-Pace" instruction were conducted in the gateway course context of introductory psychology. The…

Language learning in tandem exchanges offers students a wealth of learning opportunities that are characterised by reciprocal and autonomous learning and foster authentic communication (Brammerts, 2001). Increasingly, these encounters take place online and, in this context, the EU-funded European University Tandem (EUniTa) project developed an…

Researchers have long recognized the potential benefits of open-ended computer- based learning environments (OELEs) to help students develop self-regulated learning (SRL) behaviours. However, measuring self-regulation in these environments is a difficult task. In this paper, we present our work in developing and evaluating "coherence…

Preparing for college requires behaviors and skills that must be learned along with academic content. In this article, the authors talk about a technology learning center for seniors that encourages independent learning, engagement, and responsibility. In the Avon Advanced Learning Center (AALC), located on the Avon campus, technology is used by…

Teacher feedback and interaction are factors of success and satisfaction in online courses, but courses designed for computer-assisted instruction (CAI) require less communication between a teacher and student. The goal of this research was to examine the impact of teachers' feedback in online self-paced secondary math courses where CAI was…

Investigates the effect of implementing cooperative versus individual learning and orienting activities during computer-based instruction (CBI). Results indicated that students who received instructional objectives performed significantly better on posttests than students who received either advance organizers or no orienting activities. Learning…
