Online teacher professional development is a branch of online learning, which offers educators opportunities to refine their pedagogical skills and collaboratively construct knowledge within professional learning communities. During these interactions, teachers often engage in knowledge construction while exhibiting diverse role characteristics.…

This paper presents a bibliometric analysis of the community of inquiry model in online learning. The study focuses on identifying the most trending topics, most impact authors, most relevant sources, most relevant countries and most cited articles in the community of inquiry online learning model. Another aim is to understand the literature's…

Social presence is one key factor for successful learning in socio-constructivist learning environments, such as in online-courses based on the Community of Inquiry Framework. Teachers need easily interpretable and pedagogically relevant information to monitor social presence and to intervene if needed while a course is running. Social network…

In-service teachers, constrained by work commitments, adopt online learning methods for their graduate studies, emphasizing the significance of exploring the construction of online learning communities. Analyzing collaborative conversation texts within the online learning process of the "Learning Science" course at a university in…

This study examines at how e-learning readiness and the Community of Inquiry framework affect higher education students' preferences for various teaching delivery modes. In the study, Latent Class Analysis was used to profile the participants based on autonomous learning attributes, which is the pedagogical sub-dimension of e-learning readiness.…

This study examines the virtual classroom experiences of graduate students. Virtual classroom applications related to the course "applications of scientific research" taught at a state university were treated as a case study. Virtual classroom recordings, defined using the university's learning management system, were used as research…

In a case study involving three asynchronous online professional writing courses, this research investigates students' abilities to establish a social presence and build team cohesion via collaborative, team-based writing projects. Using the Community of Inquiry (COI) framework, this study is situated in the understanding that teaching and…

The architecture of the virtual learning community via metaverse, or VLC via metaverse, to promote digital teacher's competency is related to the application of the concepts of virtual learning community integrated with virtual reality technology to promote the competency of teachers in the digital age. This is also to equip these teachers with…

Online discussion based on the community of inquiry (CoI) framework has received considerable popularity due to its potential benefits for enhancing problem-solving skills and achieving deep understanding in the long term. However, it is challenging to make learners actively conduct a discussion using typical environments (e.g., asynchronous…

Student readiness for university study cannot be assumed; the progression to become a successful student requires support. Highlighting the implementation of purposeful, accessible, and inclusive pedagogical design, this case study explores emergent academic literacies and community building using social annotation in the context of remote…

Virtual learning communities can be formed through social media platforms, enabling the implementation of various learning activities. One of the essential components of virtual learning communities created on social media is the knowledge-sharing behaviors (KSB) of students. Studies show that some students actively participate in the…

This article examines the relationship between academic mentoring and "tok stori," a Melanesian orality, in a digital environment. This relationship is significant where dispersal is an unintended consequence of the way development aid intersects with academic opportunities for scholars from less developed countries, and, consequently,…

Purpose: Finding ways in which technology can be used to modify, strengthen, scale up and sustain lesson study (LS) is an emerging field of research. It has become even more important due to a pandemic leading to teacher and student learning being delivered online. The purpose of this paper is to present research findings about experiences of…

It is critical to create an inclusive online learning environment for students with diverse demographic information studying in different environments, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic when they are disconnected from peers. Guided to create an inclusive online learning community by situated learning theory and community of practice, both of…

In order to prevent the interruption in the education process during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, which would inevitably lead to serious socio-economic consequences, the universities from low-income countries, including those from Bosnia and Herzegovina, shifted to "emergency remote teaching," a type of teaching that is…
