Asynchronous online delivery of initial teacher education courses is increasing due to the opportunities it provides for preservice teachers and higher education institutes. However, asynchronous online learning has been shown to limit learners' sense of relationality. Since relationality has various benefits for preservice teachers, it is…

This online project was created to orient multilingual international students into the new academic context of a major Canadian university by offering them a set of asynchronous interactive self-paced modules. We drew on an academic discourse socialization framework to identify and scaffold areas in need of further development in students'…

Many Canadian universities actively recruit international students but do not adequately explore or support their unique needs. This article investigates the early stages of additional language socialization occurring among international master's students in an English for academic purposes (EAP) program. Student perspectives on community…

As universities incorporate an asynchronous provision as part of online programmes appealing to the possibility of learning anytime, anywhere, the topic of attention in online study is both important and relevant in education today. Much research focuses on asynchronous pedagogies or on distraction within a performative context, yet much less is…

Students' perceptions towards synchronous and asynchronous online delivery modes of three engineering courses, in a large UK university is conceptualised, inspired by the Community of Inquiry theoretical framework. Using a qualitative methodology, 76 written student narratives were analysed. An overwhelming focus on the elements that helped them…

This study aimed to investigate elementary learners' emotions, emotion regulation, and enjoyment as they experienced asynchronous online learning in the postpandemic context. Gross's (2006) Process Model of Emotion Regulation was used to investigate the interrelationships between these three components, resulting in theoretical and practical…

Context: Recent research on students' experiences with the quality of online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic has increased the challenge to the development of online learning.

This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of online synchronous and asynchronous teaching formats for undergraduate physiology education in a medical program in Ireland, with a specific focus on the use of LabTutor (Lt) LabStation online laboratory platform for remote access. To understand how the Lt platform was used by students and whether…

In asynchronous online video-based learning, learners experience various affective states, which may make them disengaged and negatively influence learning outcomes. This study aimed to examine the effect of the utility value (UV) intervention to help learners emotionally and behaviorally engage in online learning. The UV intervention includes…

With the expanding realm of online education in Indonesia, determining factors influencing university students' participation in distinct modes of virtual learning is crucial to developing more effective digital pedagogy. This research aims to scrutinize factors affecting Indonesian EFL (English as a Foreign Language) university students' low…
