Institutions are increasingly supplementing their traditional class formats with hybrid approaches that mix in-person, remote synchronous, and remote asynchronous delivery methods. Even when the student population expects and appreciates more flexibility in scheduling, students still struggle with technology-enhanced instruction when course design…

This study assessed the implementation of a virtual assistant chatbot, EpiBot, in an online epidemiology course using the Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance framework to evaluate acceptability, feasibility, and effectiveness. EpiBot was piloted by 29 public health undergraduate students at a Hispanic Serving…

It is meaningful to explore the emotional experience of learners in various typical technology-related situations. However, there are limited previous studies. This study aims to compare the emotional experience of students in three typical settings, namely face-to-face, asynchronous online learning and videoconferencing. In reaching the aim, this…

The trend to shift courses online is accelerating. Some students are gravitating toward asynchronous online classes; however, many still prefer in-person educational experiences. These students often are less engaged when taking online courses, and their willingness to pay for online courses is frequently less than for in-person courses. There is…

Institutes of higher education (IHEs) have to consider benefits of remote learning post-pandemic. Retrogression to physical contact is counterproductive. The hasty implementation of remote learning during the pandemic deprived IHEs of opportunities to efficiently enact and theorise about it. Post-pandemic, IHEs have opportunities to theorise about…

Multimedia technologies allow instructional designers to transform interpersonal interactions into interactions between learners and content. These learner-content interactions are more scalable in online, asynchronous distance education (DE) than interactions between learners and the instructor or interactions among learners. Additionally,…

This research study focuses on the growing concern of academic misconduct in distance education courses. A quasi-experimental study was conducted to measure the impact of introducing webcam recording software as an online supervision tool for high-stakes exams in two separate online courses (Management and Accounting). Results revealed that…

Computer-supported collaborative argumentation is an online activity that can engage students in deep discussion and analysis of complex problems. Given the potentially confrontational nature of argumentation, using polite language becomes a strategic approach to prevent breakdowns in group communication and nurture productive dialogues. This…

The central question in this paper is: What kind of knowledge is acquirable in the process of copying dance via a video? This question is approached through choreographic practice, teaching and learning experiences, as well as theoretical research. Subjects that are raised include the transmission of embodied knowledge in digital environments, the…

Online professional learning approaches are positioned as a key way to support the knowledge and practice of the early childhood workforce. Within the research literature, however, limited attention has been given to early childhood teachers' perceptions of, and experiences with, online learning programs, particularly those using asynchronous…

DL is a new means of implementing the learning process, which is based on the use of modern information and telecommunication technologies that allow studying at a distance without personal contact between the teacher and the student. DL is one of the main ways of computerization and automation of education and the use of the latest technologies…

Beginning in March 2020, instructors and students in educational institutions across the world have had to adapt to new virtual methods of teaching and learning. This study focused on obtaining the student perspective of remote chemistry lecture delivery methods across 13 Fall 2020 courses with students in varied majors of study and stages of…

Computer-supported collaborative argumentation is an online activity that can engage students in deep discussion and analysis of complex problems. Given the potentially confrontational nature of argumentation, using polite language becomes a strategic approach to prevent breakdowns in group communication and nurture productive dialogues. This…

The rapid shift to online teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic introduced both challenges and opportunities for effective classroom management. This review explores 20 empirical studies published between 2021 and 2025, examining how educators have adapted to the virtual learning environment. The findings highlight key strategies that contribute…

Purpose: This study aimed to explore nursing lecturers' experiences of online teaching and learning during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
