Examining how people learn in various learning environments is at the core of the science of learning. The more we understand how students learn from different dimensions and aspects, the better equipped we are to support their learning. This study aims to expand our understanding of how learning occurs within the context of an asynchronous online…

Procrastination, the irrational delay of tasks, is a common occurrence in online learning. Potential negative consequences include a higher risk of drop-outs, increased stress, and reduced mood. Due to the rise of learning management systems (LMS) and learning analytics (LA), indicators of such behavior can be detected, enabling predictions of…

The pilot study reflects perceptions from higher education students in an experimental new online teaching program at a mid-sized Southeastern United States University. The research focused on the effectiveness of an embedded tutoring pilot program in online and hybrid learning management systems (LMS). The research was focused on information…

'Learn with NALA' is an online learning service provided by Ireland's National Adult Literacy Agency (NALA). It supports the development of adult literacy, numeracy, and digital literacy skills at Levels 1 to 3 on the Irish National Framework of Qualifications (NFQ) through a virtual learning environment (VLE) and associated supports. This case…

Multimedia has been a strategy in teaching processes, especially within the learning management system (LMS). However, multimedia tools have not delivered satisfaction towards the learning process. In addition, the lack of engagement within the LMS has been a real problem for e-learning. Therefore, this study aims to identify what the challenges…

The current surge in the usage of Internet, multimedia, and educational technologies as well as the exigencies of the COVID-19 pandemic has imposed ICT-driven education globally. One of the tools deployed for ICT-mediated teaching and learning is the Learning Management System (LMS). Unfortunately, some lecturers' adoption or use of the LMS for…

Large-enrollment, asynchronous, online courses present significant teaching and learning challenges, particularly in implementing evidence-based practices such as building connections with students and offering personalized support. This Quick Hit explores the use of module conditional release, a feature in learning management systems, which can…

"Enhancing Smart Universities with Emotional Intelligence" investigates the successful blending of technology innovations and human beings' emotional intelligence within higher education institutions in the midst of digital transformation. Today's "smart" universities improve student experiences, expedite administrative…

This study explores the pedagogical implications of student-led course design using two widely adopted freemium learning management systems "(LMSs): MoodleCloud" and "Google Classroom." In a university-level ICT module at Complutense University of Madrid, students were tasked with designing parallel virtual classrooms using…

The objective of this qualitative case study is to examine the views and various roles of etutors working in an open distance e-learning (ODeL) environment. Online teaching and tutoring have become very popular, especially with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, when etutoring was introduced to bridge the geographical gap and distance between…

This research seeks to investigate the variables that might affect university-level students' internet habits, their e-learning self-efficacy and academic achievement in a technology-enhanced teaching and learning environment. To attain the aforementioned objective the Information System Success (ISS) and Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) were…

Mobile learning is the newest and emerging technology embraced by universities and this seems to be fast establishing itself as the preferred mode of learning in many countries. However, ways in which mobile devices are used to meet learning goals seem under-researched and may require more effort from researchers, especially in the context of…

Many institutions of higher education systems worldwide are transitioning from face-to-face modality to e-learning as a means of solving issues of limited resources and access to quality education. One of the crucial prerequisites for the successful implementation of e-learning is a careful consideration of emerging technologies and the underlying…

There may be many kinds of e-learning material presented to learners. However, learners may not have the consciousness or not want to spend time to examine to select the most appropriate one. Recommendation systems seem to be a feasible solution for an efficient learning process both for learners and the service provider. In this study, we propose…

Digital environments like learning management systems can afford opportunities for students to engage in cognitive learning strategies including preparatory reading of advance organizers including lecture outlines and self-testing using ungraded quizzes. When timed appropriately, self-testing can afford distributed practice, an optimal approach to…
