4-H academics responded to the COVID pandemic by rapidly adapting CDC and other resources for virtual delivery. A statewide epidemiology project was taught to 48 youth with the goal of minimizing fears and confusion, increasing prevention measures, leveraging current topics for education, and bolstering the social-emotional health of youth…

The COVID-19 pandemic has drawn the attention of educators to the blended learning model. This study developed a remote blended game-based learning activity that integrates digital game--based learning (DGBL) and blended learning (including online synchronous and asynchronous learning). This method emphasizes that in the online synchronous…

This qualitative case study explains how teachers with high or low self-efficacy adapted to changing teaching demands for online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study considers how teachers adapted to online learning during the COVID-19 school closings using Bandura's (1971) SET as a theoretical framework. The findings suggest that a…

The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the consequent social isolation can intensify some Parkinson's disease (PD) motor and non-motor symptoms. To minimize the damage to the physical and mental health of people with PD, strategies to promote health in this population must be adapted to the new reality. Considering the negative impact of social…

Disparities in access to education persist between children from low and high socio-economic backgrounds, and these disparities have become more pronounced because of school closures due to the pandemic. Addressing the disparities requires revisiting the approach to education, as a one-size-fits-all policy can be particularly challenging for…

This systematic literature review examines the use of networked learning strategies and tools in supporting active learning in fully online higher education classrooms since the COVID-19 pandemic. With the increasing adoption of online and blended learning, there is a growing need to understand how networked learning can facilitate engagement,…

The shift to remote learning during the COVID-19 crisis left some students with inequitable access to at-home internet putting students at risk of falling behind in skills needed not only for school but later in life. A month into remote learning, 197 high school students in an urban school district in New York state were identified as not having…

This research project surveyed college students about their experiences with online learning in the aftermath of the move to Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT). Specifically, students reported on strategies they appreciate in an online instructor. While students shared varied advice for best practices, their responses confirmed what previous studies…

Numerous research investigations have explored various approaches to online sports instruction; however, limited data exist regarding students' perspectives on the use of video and text-based instructional techniques. This paper endeavours to examine the impact of two asynchronous online physical learning methods (the YouTube method and the text…

When the COVID-19 pandemic moved teaching and learning to remote and virtual spaces, teacher professional learning moved online as well. To create consistently high-quality teacher learning opportunities, many online asynchronous approaches need improvement, and they need to be tailor-made for the online setting. That was the authors' goal when…

This article describes how three higher education literacy faculty shifted their traditional face-to-face instruction to a combined synchronous and asynchronous delivery in response to the COVID-19 Pandemic and subsequent closure of the university. Faculty share specific lessons that were learned over the first year of the pandemic, and how these…

In this study, we aimed to explore the factors associated with higher education students' learning outcomes in emergency remote teaching environments (ERTEs) during the COVID-19 pandemic at both the population and individual levels, given the limited understanding in previous research. 9418 students from 41 countries were selected for analysis…

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…

In this research, the "case study" model was used to determine the views of university students in Northern Cyprus on distance education during the COVID-19 pandemic process. The population of this research consists of students studying in the districts of Nicosia, Famagusta, Girne and Lefke in Northern Cyprus. The study group was used…

Purpose: In the wake of the pandemic (COVID-19) throughout the United States, many educators had to promptly switch to online modality to continue to provide education to students with safety through physical distancing requirements. This study mainly focuses on delivering an Information Systems module aligned with the information systems…
