The online learning has gradually become a notable trend of K-12 education, which requires students' continuous intention in regard to online learning. Although it is acknowledged that both environmental, technological, and personal factors have the potential to enhance students' continuous intention toward online learning, there is limited…

This case study examined students' and the instructor's perceptions of active learning classrooms (ALC) as well as their interactions in a class in a Midwestern university. Data were gathered from classroom observations and semi-structured interviews with faculty and students in a graduate-level course. Thematic analysis was used to analyze…

The 3P (presage, process, product) model was introduced as a conceptualisation to underpin research into students' approaches to learning (SAL). This paper proposes the refocusing of the 3P model by formulating the initial presage phase as a teaching and learning environment, thus making the 3P model more consistent with SAL research which…

Advances in data analytics and intelligent technologies are enabling smart learning environments that promote personalized learning. Personalized learning systems where learners engage with information in a manner tailored to their unique needs, goals, and abilities have garnered significant academic research attention. If students can achieve…

This article overviews a new teaching method from COVID-19. It uses multimedia resources and more traditional classroom activities together. The course focuses on the benefits of using online parts of hybrid learning in addition to in-person instruction. The benefits of such learning include more opportunities for contact with classmates,…

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore how care theory and the ethics of care are explained by students in the online environment to clarify the factors that are more relevant in establishing and maintaining caring relations in online learning context. Design/methodology/approach: Utilizing naturalistic inquiry, the researchers…

The present study represents a novel method not yet used in the quantitative intersectionality literature -- the CT-C(M-1) model (Eid et al., 2003) -- for measuring and understanding the similarities and uniquenesses among intersectional subgroups. Intersectionality is a conceptual framework from which to investigate and remedy the ways in which…

Through my work with Black youth, in the form of writing and literacy research, I have engaged with them on the edges of school. I joined students in hallways, offices, libraries, and lunch rooms to engage in dialogue with them about being and becoming. At the intersection of my conducting literacy research and being (queer, Black, female, mother,…

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, teachers in Ontario were thrust into a new teaching situation at the end of the 2019-2020 school year for which few were prepared. To address the need for guidance in transitioning to distance teaching, we offer the e-3Cs model, a research-based framework with flexible "elements" essential for promoting…

What is "productive giftedness" and why does it matter in talent development? Using the Productive Giftedness Model, the current study examines key environmental and psychosocial factors that influence productive outcomes (e.g., achievements, accomplishments, leadership, eminence). Defined as mastery and excellence, the "productive…

The aim of this study was conducted to evaluate chemistry education in the context of the elements that form the learning environment. The weights of learning environment components were determined by Analytic Hierarchy Process. The significance levels of learning environment dimensions were also calculated. According to the findings of the study,…

This review uses research literature to outline the characteristics, benefits and disadvantages of formal, non-formal, and informal learning. There appears to be a consensus around the meanings of formal and informal learning. Formal learning broadly aligns with organised, institutionalised learning models (such as learning seen in schools),…

Teacher quality, along with the school context, classroom practice, and student mathematics achievement, are the key components in Clarke and Hollingsworth's (2002) model that depicts teachers' professional growth as an ongoing, dynamic, and interactive enterprise. Comfort and preparedness are dispositions that, along with teacher knowledge, are…

This study aimed to explore the relationship between four predictor variables (online learning self-efficacy, learner-content interaction, learner-instructor interaction, and learner-learner interaction) and student satisfaction and perceived learning. The purpose of this study was to investigate the extent to which the four variables are…

Self-exclusion of pupils is one of the prominent challenges of education. In this paper we propose the TERA model, which shapes the process of creating formative accountability of teachers to overcome the self-exclusion of pupils. Development of the model includes elaboration and integration of interconnected model components. The TERA model…
