This study aims to provide recommendations for interaction design to enhance students' task interpretation, as one of the crucial aspects of Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) in online learning environments. Utilizing the Engineering Design Metacognitive Questionnaire (EDMQ), open-ended questions, and in-depth interviews, this study examines the…

Gamification mechanisms have been increasingly integrated into educational environments to enhance learner's engagement and improve the effectiveness of online courses. However, the precise effects of gamification on learner's engagement, including the factors that influence this behavior, remain under-explored. This study addresses this gap by…

Web programming courses are practical courses that can only run with the help of computer devices. The content or learning content in web programming courses is in program code directly created with a computer. The models developed include conceptual models, procedural models, and physical models. The research method used is Research and…

Aim/Purpose: This study identifies gamification element preferences based on Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) characteristics. It measures the influence of preferences on learning motivation through a pre-experimental design of one group pre-test post-test. Background: Incorporating information technology in education has led to the introduction…

The sample mean in statistics is a concept of great importance, with its properties being extensively utilized in other areas, such as computer science. This research centers on the concept of the sample mean and its characteristics in a cohort of computer engineering students undertaking a required course in statistics at a university in the…

Online learning has been widely discussed in education research, and open educational resources have become an increasingly popular way to help learners acquire knowledge. However, these resources contain massive amounts of information, making it difficult for learners to identify Web articles that refer to computer science knowledge. This study…

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…

Background/purpose: Mobile learning (M-learning) has become a crucial component of higher education due to the increasing demand for flexible and adaptive learning environments. However, ensuring personalized and effective M-learning experiences remains a challenge. This study aims to enhance M-learning effectiveness by introducing an AI-driven…

The global spread of the COVID-19 pandemic posed unprecedented challenges to higher education institutions worldwide. As governments announced lockdown measures that placed restrictions and mandatory closures on establishments that traditionally required gatherings, universities worldwide cancelled face-to-face classes and adapted their mode of…

In recent years, online educational platforms have become an increasingly popular tool for delivering online learning experiences. One such platform is the Tunisian educational platform provided by the Virtual University of Tunis. The acceptance and adoption of these platforms by students are crucial for their successful integration into the…

This paper presents a new developed methodology for teaching and learning subjects that although are very important in the modern digital society are neglected in high school education programs: cybersecurity and cyber safety. A Study among the EU high schools in 2021-2022 revealed that computer science teachers are not regularly upgrading their…

Increased exposure to technologies has lately emerged as one of the everyday realities of digital natives, especially K-12 students, and teachers, the digital immigrants. Protection from cybersecurity risks in digital learning spaces is a human right, but students are increasingly exposed to high-risk cyberspace without time to cope with…

Whether by choice or pushed online by Covid, higher education is increasingly happening in digital spaces with digital tools forming a critical part of learning and teaching contexts. While reviews suggest such tools positively influence student engagement, research tends to be generic and more is needed to understand how and why specific tools…

Due to swift technological changes in society, programming tasks are proliferating in formal and informal education around the globe. However, challenges arise regarding the acquisition of programming skills. Many students are unequipped to develop programming skills due to limited instruction or background and therefore feel insecure when…

Gamification has emerged as a promising strategy to enhance student engagement and learning outcomes in computer science education. This study uses Wenger's Value Creation Framework to evaluate and design the gamification elements in the "Answers" platform, a Professional Learning Network (PLN) developed at TU Delft. Using a…
