The purpose of the current study was to explore the effect of modality (constructionist mBlock, Scratch, and Python interventions) on six-grade students' computational thinking, programming attitude, and achievement. The pre-test and post-test quasi-experimental design was used to explore the research questions. The study group consisted of 105…

The transformation of face-to-face classrooms into online classes during the Pandemic COVID-19 has impacted ELT activities. One of which is the students' satisfaction with the new format of learning. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between English Foreign Learning (EFL) Pre-service Teachers' satisfaction with online…

Education, alongside the method by which instruction has been proposed, continues to shift, changing how educators instruct, schools operate, and, therefore, the success and growth by which students can progress due to the global pandemic. The ever-changing dynamic of the current state of education places constant strain on pedagogues to…

The reliance on online learning systems has increased during the COVID-19 epidemic to maintain education. The effectiveness of online life and earth science instruction is assessed in this study which involves 150 first-year high school students. Methodologically, it juxtaposes elearning with traditional classroom teaching across various…

Online learning has long been essential in universities, and during the COVID-19 pandemic, it became obligatory for all students. This new circumstance entailed advantages and disadvantages for online learners. As disabled students have their own needs, and as each disability is related to specific kinds of needs, in this paper, we focus on online…

Online teaching caught in-service teachers off-guard with emergency distance education and sparked interest to teacher education programs. Purpose of this study is to explore self-efficacy beliefs of prospective teachers in teaching online (SETO) and to determine the relationship between pre-service teachers' importance of online teaching…

The increase in enrollment of students in an online course or taking some classes online indicates an utmost need for faculty to devise means of delivering meaningful and engaging online instruction. Instruction needs to be engaging in ways that make sense to the generation of students in our college classrooms. The outbreak of the COVID-19…

Ethical education practices require that all students have access to quality learning resources, necessary learning supports, diverse learning strategies, and deep learning opportunities. When it comes to learning strategies and opportunities, collaborative learning practices foster deep learning through socio-cultural interactions, asserting that…

This research contributes to the body of knowledge regarding mathematics anxiety, self-efficacy, and performance in mathematics. Specifically, this study analyzed these constructs as they pertain to undergraduate business students enrolled in entry-level, prerequisite mathematics courses. Information was collected via surveys utilizing the…

Empowering students with choice when it comes to assessment is shown to have a positive impact on student satisfaction and success, with previous studies finding a more flexible approach to assessment can promote engagement and performance. However, very little is known about why students choose certain types of assessment. Building on previous…

This study investigated the change in preservice teachers' (PSTs) mathematics teaching self-efficacy through a mathematics methods course and revealed the best practices that helped the PSTs develop a higher self-efficacy and a growth mindset for teaching mathematics. We collected data through a scaled-response questionnaire to measure PSTs'…

Although previous research has identified undergraduate student motivations for selecting online courses over face-to-face courses, this work tended to examine students as a single group. The current research presents survey results of business school students demonstrating that these motivations differ significantly by classification. Freshman…

An uptick in online enrollments at higher institutions in recent years serves as the driving force behind an increase in the number of science courses available online.

Community-engagement in virtual classrooms comes with unique benefits and challenges. Between 2018-2021, technical writing e-service-learning students from Indiana University East (Richmond, Indiana) raised a total of $149,239 through grant writing projects. This e-service-learning project gave students real-world experiences and opportunity to…

Online laboratories can be an effective way to introduce students to lab concepts while providing flexibility, increased access, and reduced costs. However, online labs might lack the authentic research experience that can be gained by doing hands-on lab work. This study explores student perceptions of an online, inquiry-based introductory biology…
