This study aimed to explore the undergraduates' attitudes and perceptions towards the use of synchronous zoom classroom for learning, and the effect of individual differences on the perceptions of zoom learning. Data were collected via online structured questionnaire from a total of 379 undergraduate students, who utilized a hybrid mode for…

In response to COVID-19, educators rapidly pivoted to new and innovative ways of delivering lecture material. The ability to host synchronous lectures on platforms like Zoom gave students continued access to classroom material in the face of an ongoing pandemic. The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences in exam scores between…

Team-based learning (TBL) is an active learning pedagogy developed for in-class sessions and based on the collaborative work of small groups of students. The increasing push to online and blended learning has enhanced the need to expand this pedagogy to a virtual environment, but little evidence has been produced on how students accept online…

Drawing on a feminist poststructural theoretical framework, this study examined how students perform gender in the online classroom and how that performance impacts their understanding of and navigation of gendered power structures. There is a scarcity of feminist poststructural research in online learning; most online learning research relies on…

Lockdowns due to the COVID-19 pandemic have forced universities to migrate entirely to eLearning to deliver classes. Students have found themselves using either synchronous, asynchronous, or mixed mode learning methods based on their universities' preferences. Many studies that investigated difficulties during the lockdown have been mainly…

Studies have documented that men's voices are generally heard more than women's voices in face-to-face undergraduate biology classes, and some performance gaps have also been documented. Some of the few studies on gender equity in traditional online biology education suggest that women participate more and perform better in asynchronous online…

This study was conducted to examine the relationship between distance education students' cognitive flexibility levels and their distance education motivations. In the study, cognitive flexibility levels and distance education motivations were also investigated in terms of several variables (gender, age, computer and internet usage time, time…

The aim of this study is to examine whether the gender, sports branch, department and class, and class participation of the students studying in the School of Physical Education and Sports undergraduate program differ according to E-learning styles. 340 students (male: 201, female: 139) from Republic of Turkey Mardin Artuklu University Physical…

This study aims to analyze the intention of students studying at physical education and sports school to use synchronous virtual classroom environments during the Covid-19 pandemic period. The research was designed in a descriptive survey model with a quantitative approach. The study group of the research consists of 193 voluntary students…

Based on a synthesis of persistence theory and the empirical literature, an online doctoral program integration model was developed using data from 232 online EdD students. A predictive, correlation design and regression analysis were used to examine if personal factors (gender, race, age, marital status, and presence of children in the home) and…

Online course facilitation is critical to the success of online courses. Instructors use various facilitation strategies in online courses to engage students. One hundred instructors were surveyed on their perception of helpfulness of twelve different facilitation strategies used in online courses to enhance instructor presence, instructor…

The substantive purpose of this study was to identify the students' preferences to use asynchronous and synchronous e-learning resources. Asynchronous means that there is no set time for the learning to be occurring. Learners can learn anywhere and can consume their time to gain knowledge of what they want to know and when they need to know.…

The Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak became a public health concern which affected normal processes and conduct of almost everything. Education was greatly affected and cannot be conducted on the normal classroom setup. The Department of Education in response to the COVID-19 pandemic developed a system through the Basic Education Learning…

Collaborative learning, particularly in the context of team-based, project-based learning, is common in undergraduate engineering education and is associated with deeper learning and enhanced student motivation and retention. However, grouping students in teams for project-based learning sometimes has negative outcomes, which can include lowered…

This book focuses on the interplay between pedagogy and technology, and their fusion for the advancement of smart learning environments. It discusses various components of this interplay, including learning and assessment paradigms, social factors and policies, emerging technologies, innovative application of mature technologies, transformation of…
