With the rapid growth of education data in large-scale assessment, machine learning techniques are crucial to the interdisciplinary development of education and information. Although data mining tools are increasingly used to predict overall student performance, resilient students in the digital world remain unstudied. Our study aims to…

This paper discusses the importance of definitions in the context of academic discussion, highlights the inconsistent terminology used to describe e-learning, and examines a range of different definitions of e-learning used by academic authors since 2011. Following an outline of the methodology, the paper identifies 15 unique definitions of…

Online learning is emphasised in the 21st century curricula as one of the efficient instructional practices that improves the learning ownership of contemporary learners. A key factor in ensuring success in learners' online learning environments is the implementation of learner control. Learner control motivation is influenced by multiple…

This chapter discusses the history of source evaluation methods within the ever-changing field of information literacy, including a critical assessment of one popular approach, the CRAAP Test. The author then endorses an alternative approach, lateral reading, which encourages students to engage more deeply when evaluating digital resources in an…

This multiple case study aimed to investigate how digital reflective practice (DRP) influences the creative process of textile design students. Interviews were conducted with textile design instructors, heads of department, and students from four higher education textile design departments in Pakistan. The main themes elicited from the four case…

As professional learning and development (PLD) for teachers moves online, it is increasingly important to consider what constitutes effective provision. While models of effective PLD abound, online PLD faces challenges to participant engagem ent. In particular, the critical need to build and maintain relationships in professional learning is…

Mastering SQL programming skills is fundamental in computer science education, and Online Judging Systems (OJS) play a critical role in automatically assessing SQL codes, improving the accuracy and efficiency of evaluations. However, these systems are vulnerable to manipulation by students who can submit "cheating codes" that pass the…

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, universities across the world were forced to move from a classroom-based delivery model to an online learning model which heavily disrupted the learning process for students. Despite proactive efforts for academic staff to embrace online teaching tools and techniques, the pressing urgency with which solutions…

Purpose: This study examines learner satisfaction and success as mechanisms through which online learning quality translates into learners' continuous intentions of use by extending DeLone and McLean's information system success model. It also examines the moderating effect of perceived supervisory support and learners' self-regulation on online…

The rise of online and hybrid learning in universities, especially due to the pandemic, has not only revolutionized how students learn, but also blurred the boundaries between work, school, and leisure activities because of the pervasive use of technology surrounding students in their daily lives. The purpose of this study is to investigate, using…

Student attrition is now a global problem in Higher Education with most institutions experiencing high volumes of early exiting students. However, student resilience has yet to be adequately explored, particularly among the increasing online student population, as a possible mechanism to reduce attrition rates. In the present study, online,…

The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) and its successor, UTAUT2, were widely recognised frameworks for understanding technology adoption in organisational and consumer contexts. UTAUT2 extended the original framework by introducing constructs such as hedonic motivation, price value, and habit, broadening its applicability…

Many people around the globe are aiming to learn the Arabic language, even though it is difficult to learn. Therefore, many online institutions are offering the service of teaching Arabic as a second language to non-native speakers, but these institutions always encounter different issues in enhancing their performance. Thus, this study aimed to…

In scientific literacy, knowledge integration (KI) is a scaffolding-based theory to assist students' scientific inquiry learning. To drive students to be self-directed, many courses have been developed based on KI framework. However, few efforts have been made to evaluate the outcome of students' learning under KI instruction. Moreover,…

The purpose of this research was to obtain faculty perceptions of online instruction and educational technology in higher education. Data was collected from eight participants through interviews and open-ended questions at a higher education institution. Results showed that faculty consider that online instruction is only possible for certain…
