Early research on online PBL explored student satisfaction, effectiveness, and design. The temporal aspect of online PBL has rarely been addressed. Thus, a gap exists in our knowledge regarding how online PBL unfolds: when and for how long a group engages in collaborative discussions. Similarly, little is known about whether and what sequence of…

This study explores the experiences and the preferred schedule of face-to-face and online tutorials in a problem-based learning setting where students learn collaboratively, based on cognitive, social, and teaching presences. Seventeen experienced students and 13 tutors attended semi-structured interviews focusing on their experiences and…

In this study, we developed an online problem-based learning (PBL) module for the Impulsive Force subtopic of Physics Form Four and studied its perceived usability among Physics trainee teachers. The research design of this study is developmental research and a quantitative study using a survey approach. The module was developed according to five…

This paper contributes to current discussions of digital teaching and technology within the field of engineering design education. We enter this dialogue by analysing a hybrid digital learning design for a 15-ECTS engineering design course. The course design pedagogically integrates principles from networked learning research, Problem-Based…

The cultural challenge of educating Haitian rehabilitation professionals was identified by a Canadian francophone university which collaborated in the implementation and organization of international internships. Ethical cross-border internationalization should ensure reciprocity for partners. With this as a central value and in a context of…

This study contributes to the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning by expanding the investigative areas on the role of social capital in collaborative learning environments.

This study investigates the effects of a developed MOOC based on Merrill's principles of instruction on participants' learning outcomes and satisfaction. A pre-test-post-test with a control group design was used in this study. In total, 335 participants were assigned into experimental (using Merrill's principles of instruction) and control group…

Since the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been an increasing growing need for learning experience or instructional designers. As a result, online courses on user experience (UX) design for learning are in demand to prepare those much-needed professionals. This paper reports the first circle of educational design research (EDR) on such a completely…

Plant Physiology and Ecophysiology (PPE) is a subject taught in the biology degree. One of the skills that students must acquire is "the ability to solve PPE problems." Acquiring this competence requires a precise working methodology, a high degree of presence, and teamwork between teachers and students. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic…

Research on mathematics teacher professional development has emphasized primarily teaching quality enhancement. Mathematics task as one of the vital components in mathematics teacher education has been sparsely investigated. The purpose of this research is to explore mathematics teachers' beliefs and practices in applying a problem-based task…

This study examined the perceptions, practices, and challenges of Kurdish EFL university lecturers in implementing effective pedagogy within teacher education. Forty lecturers from Iraqi Kurdistan completed surveys and semi-structured interviews. While participants viewed problem-based and collaborative learning as most effective, lecture-based…

This research aimed to develop and evaluate an online problem-based learning (PBL) model to enhance undergraduates' self-regulated learning (SRL). The Research and Development method was used in two phases: the first was to develop and validate the model. It began with a literature review to identify core features of effective PBL and SRL within…

This study aimed to improve students' literacy skills in carrying out distance learning and examine the effect of problem-based learning in reverse online classes on statistical literacy skills in distance learning. This research was conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic at Prisma University and Manado State University with 198 students taking…

This study investigated the effect of the online, flipped classroom model on learners' self-directed learning using the descriptive correlation design. A total of 181 students from three public universities that applied the online flipped classroom approach participated in the study. The finds reveal that students did very well in their…

Higher education institutions are increasingly offering online courses, forcing a growing number of faculty members, who are accustomed to the traditional face-to-face method of teaching, to adapt to the rigors of the new technology.
