MOOC platforms provide a means of communication through forums, allowing learners to express their difficulties and challenges while studying various courses. Within these forums, some posts require urgent attention from instructors. Failing to respond promptly to these posts can contribute to higher dropout rates and lower course completion…

This study examines the impact of digital etiquette training on the development of a digital communication culture among future teachers by providing new perspectives and access to scientific knowledge in the field of digital etiquette. A mixed-methods approach was used both before and after the test. The study included 115 respondents. The…

As our society becomes increasingly globalized, it is essential for students to gain international experience. Over the last several years, global learning has been integrated into undergraduate education in various ways, including virtual global exchanges. Virtual exchange is a web-based international collaboration between undergraduate students…

Social media has been shown to be an efficient way to engage in networked participatory scholarship (NPS), which is defined as the use of online social networks to share and further develop scholarship. As leaders in the field, educational technology scholars should be at the forefront of this practice. We used social network analysis (SNA) to…

This study examines virtual exchange (VE) as a mode of internationalization at a distance through the Turkish higher education context. Recognizing the constraints of geographical mobility, VE emerges as a viable alternative to enhance international and intercultural learning through technology. Employing a qualitative phenomenological design, we…

The relative effectiveness of Google Classroom (GC) and WhatsApp (WSP) instructions on students' engagement in basic Biology in universities in SouthEast, Nigeria was examined. Two research questions and three null hypotheses were posed. A quasi-experimental, specifically nonrandomized, pretest-posttest comparison design was employed. The…

Online instructors have identified several issues that must be addressed to facilitate better online learning experiences, including authentic experiential education, building community, technology for remote learning, and supporting learners. Online forums are often used by users to express their frustrations, feelings, jokes, and even…

Within the university sector, student recruitment and enrolment are key strategies as institutions strive to attract, retain and engage students. This strategy is underpinned by the provision of services, applications and technologies that facilitate lecturing and support staff. Universities that offer online learning have a particular incentive…

In this article, we present the asynchronous phases of digital mathematical discussions conducted along a didactic path on proof through the use of algebraic language with Grade 9 classes. We aim at characterising the digital environments where these discussions unfold (chat and Padlet) by examining students' asynchronous interactions, through the…

Many AIED systems support self-regulated learning, yet, support for setting and achieving practice goals has received little attention. We examine how middle school students respond to system-recommended practice goals, building on the success of similar data-driven recommendations in other domains. We introduce an adaptive dashboard in an…

The use of SMS messaging for education has grown in recent years, with particular attention recently during the Covid-19 pandemic. Mobile phones often have high levels of ownership in low-income contexts compared to computers, and lower connectivity requirements, which arguably make this a more equitable medium than data-heavy online instruction,…

The rise of digital technologies, on one hand, has transformed the way learners interact with digital environments. On the other hand, we witness the digital divide and biases associated with it. This calls for a redefinition of digital citizenship. This prompted us to develop the Critical Digital Citizenship (CDC) Scale to assess school teachers'…

This article introduces my C.H.A.T.S. model (Conversational, Holistic, Authentic, Transformative, Situated), a novel pedagogical framework I designed to revolutionize language learning and teaching through the strategic integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and conversational chatbots with established learning theories. The model addresses…

A knowledge gap exists regarding the faculty's dynamic selection and modification of emotion regulation strategies to reduce negative emotions in synchronous teaching. This study conducted semi-structured interviews with 16 teachers at higher education institutions in China, focusing on their handling of the negative emotions that arose from poor…

This study aims to investigate the effects of competition through a digital leaderboard in gamified online discussions on learners' behavioral and cognitive engagement in learning. Twenty-three graduate students pursuing master's degree in instructional technology in a public university in Indonesia were involved in a five-week quasi-experiment (N…
