Despite continuous discussions on Generative Artificial Intelligence (Gen AI) ethics in academia, limited studies examine the perceptions of students or the application of ChatGPT with non-traditional students. We report an exploratory single case of a two-week orientation offered to non-traditional students entering online bachelor's degree…

Higher education institutions worldwide have embraced remote as a response to restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in the imposition of stay-at-home protocols. While this shift from the conventional face-to-face mode to remote learning platforms represents a notable innovation in the education circles, we contend that…

Conceptualized in France during the sixties, the Theory of Didactical Situations [TDS] is a pivotal framework for developing mathematics teaching and learning processes. Despite the increasing qualitative studies over the last ten years, there remains a dearth of analysis of its effects on mathematics education. Through a Grounded Formal Theory…

The COVID-19 pandemic has forced many international educational system to undergo significant transformation, rethinking key elements of their learn processes and use of technology to maintain operations whilst adhering to a changing landscape of guidelines and new procedures. This study offers a collective insight to many of the key issues and…

The COVID-19 pandemic caused many educational institutions in the world to switch to the distance education process, and this process was called "Emergency Remote Teaching". This urgent transition process has caused many problems in educational environments. One of the problems is the subject of measurement and evaluation. Along with the…

Herein, two simulated electrochemistry experiments, namely, the (i) electrochemical series, using an electronic half-cell module, and (ii) citrus fruit battery series are demonstrated for undergraduate chemistry students. The demonstration can be performed for in-person and remote students by connecting the electronic half-cell module to a…

Semantic Web technology is not new as most of us contemplate; it has evolved over the years. Linked Data web terminology is the name set recently to the Semantic Web. Semantic Web is a continuation of Web 2.0 and it is to replace existing technologies. It is built on Natural Language processing and provides solutions to most of the prevailing…

The study investigated the impact on student engagement and achievement of a "formative thresholded" continuous assessment strategy in which students had to meet a modest threshold, but their continuous assessment marks did not contribute to their final grade. Students were free to choose their own blend of tutor-marked and…

E-learning systems are one of the effective methods used for education. It is obvious that both during the Pandemic period when distance education is actively used and in normal life, participants apply to e-learning systems to follow lessons or improve themselves. Computer and internet applications are getting into education more and more day by…

Promoting student self-determination is recognized as the best practice in secondary transition planning. Few self-determination interventions have utilized technology to provide individualized learning opportunities. The Goal Setting Challenge (GSC) App was developed to provide a technology-based instructional approach to support developing…

In May of 2020, the Advanced Distributed Learning Initiative (ADL) and the Defense Acquisition University (DAU) partnered with USALearning/PowerTrain to create a practical application of ADL's 2019 TLA Reference Implementation. The purpose of this project was to recreate key components of the Reference Implementation with commercially-available,…

As an important tool for STEM education, online labs have gained significant research attention. However, our understanding of online labs is limited by the inattention to the factors that contribute to the acceptance of online labs. This study adopts the UTAUT model to investigate the salient determinants of use of online labs. We test the…

The Enterprise Learner Record Repository (ELRR) is one of three Enterprise Digital Learning Modernization (EDLM) lines of effort supported by the ADL Initiative. Today, learner records for Department of Defense (DoD) personnel are stored in disparate locations, along with inconsistent data formats, which complicates the transport, management, and…

The scope of the ELRR Prototype Systems Integration Plan (SIP) is to provide technical guidance for integrating ELRR Prototype with ADL TLA sandbox components, such as the Authoritative Learner Record Store (LRS), Competency and Skills System (CaSS), and Enterprise Course Catalog (ECC), along with a recommended resource mixture to conduct the…
