Connectionist MOOC (cMOOC) is a type of MOOC, which can provide an online learning space for learners to sustainable connect. This study analyzed the learning behavior and motivation of repeat learners in the cMOOC "Internet + Education: a dialogue between theory and practice" to study the repeat learning needs and characteristics of…

In science and engineering education, remote laboratories are designed to bring ubiquity to experimental scenarios, by having real laboratories operated through the Internet. Despite that remote laboratories enable the collection of students' work data, the educational use of these data is still underdeveloped. Learning analytics dashboards are…

The time students spend in a learning management system (LMS) is an important measurement in learning analytics (LA). One of the most common data sources is log files from LMS, which do not directly reveal the online time, the duration of which needs to be estimated. As this measurement has a great impact on the results of statistical models in…

AI technology, which is becoming more widespread day by day, also affects education and training processes. The use of AI tools in educational environments provides many benefits to teachers and students. However, the use of AI in education also raises some ethical concerns. The aim of this study was to reveal the ethical issues arising from the…

This study explores the potential benefits of integrating Industry 4.0 technologies into educational settings, focusing on Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning, Augmented Reality, Big Data, Blockchain, Cloud Computing, Internet of Things, Metaverse, Robotics, and Virtual Reality. The aim is to develop learning environments that are more…

Higher education is beginning to focus on how to effectively cultivate IoT engineers who possess both hard skills and soft skills. Therefore, from the perspective of activity theory and combining it with project-based learning, this study constructed a project-based learning framework based on activity theory and applied this framework to an IoT…

With the emergence of technology, the personalization of e-learning systems is enhanced. These systems use a set of parameters for personalizing courses. However, in literature, these parameters are not based on classification and optimization algorithms to implement them in the cloud. Cloud computing is a new model of computing where standard and…

Ten years after the announcement of the "rise of the super experiment" at Educational Data Mining 2012, challenges to implementing "internet scale" educational experiments often persist for educational technology providers, especially when they seek to test substantive instructional interventions. Studies that deploy and test…

Online information is not regulated for quality of content or accuracy; therefore, content found online is not always complete, accurate, or unbiased. While media-literacy education exists, educators often only see the final result of students' online research in the form of the assignment or a works cited page. For teachers to address the media…

In Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS), methods to choose the next exercise for a student are inspired from generic recommender systems, used, for instance, in online shopping or multimedia recommendation. As such, collaborative filtering, especially matrix factorization, is often included as a part of recommendation algorithms in ITS. One notable…

Thanks to an increase in the amount of information on the Internet and the spread of ICT-supported educational environments, much attention has been paid to learning support based on "smart" recommendation technologies. In this study, we propose an education improvement model based on the recommender system using the human-in-the-loop…

Access to big data, the "new commodity" for the 21st century economies, and its uses and potential abuses, has both conceptual and methodological impacts for the field of comparative and international education. This book examines, from a comparative perspective, the impact of the movement from the so-called knowledge-based economy…

The Internet and the software stores for mobile devices come with a huge number of digital tools for any task, and those intended for digital formative assessment (DFA) have burgeoned exponentially in the last decade. These tools vary in terms of their functionality, pedagogical quality, cost, operating systems and so forth. Teachers and learners…

The information age has revolutionized how people communicate, access information and learn. Today's students are locating, evaluating and using information in significantly different ways than they did just a generation ago (Holman, 2009). As students evolve their learning strategies, there is a need for teachers to evolve the way in which they…

The "2016 NMC Technology Outlook for Chinese K-12 Education: A Horizon Project Regional Report" reflects a collaborative research effort between the New Media Consortium (NMC) and the Smart Learning Institute of Beijing Normal University to inform Chinese school leaders and decision-makers about important developments in technologies…
