This study aims to investigate the perceptions of Generation Z students about ideal learning after the pandemic in Indonesia. This research uses a qualitative design with a phenomenological approach. There were 30 students from 6 different campuses in Serang City, Banten, Indonesia, who used a purposive sampling technique as research participants.…

HyFlex technology-based learning refers to learning that integrates face-to-face (synchronous) and online (asynchronous) learning experiences. In this study, the effects of 'Hyflex Technology-Based Learning' applications on pre-service teachers' achievement, professional attitudes and retention of what is learned compared to traditional teaching…

In addition to a face-to-face classroom learning environment, today's learners in higher education are likely to have also experienced a blended learning or an online learning environment. These learning environments not only differ in their delivery modes, but also learning activities, class interactions, assessment approaches, etc. Learners tend…

In this cross-sectional survey, it was aimed to analyze pre-service teachers' comparative perceptions about face-to-face (F2F) and online courses. It was also intended to discover the predictors influencing their choice of educational modes. The sample consisted of 338 pre-service teachers, selected with the cluster random sampling method,…

This study explored the use of hybrid online learning methods as employed in an alternative school environment in the rural Midwest. Using Self-Regulative Theory as a theoretical lens, this study discusses how self-regulative abilities play a role in the academic success of students of varying backgrounds. Findings suggest that both alternative…

This study explores students' perceptions of blended learning and its impact on their sense of belonging at a post-92 UK university. A critical realist framework that considers the interlocking domains of subjective experience, objective events and observations, and the mechanisms and structures that underpin them is used to situate these…

Some university students face barriers to learning in physical classrooms, while others are reluctant to return to in-person learning environments because of COVID-19. Hybrid-flexible (HyFlex) learning environments give students the option to participate in-person or virtually, but there are concerns about student engagement and success. In this…

This article aims to design a novel edge-centric hierarchical cloud architecture to optimize mobile learning (m-learning) performance during learners executing computation-intensive learning applications. This research adopts the potential of distributed computing paradigms, that is, mobile edge, for improving the effectiveness of m-learning…

This research was aimed to provide professional experience to students, to develop and examine the quality of media development and special hybrid event during COVID-19 pandemic, to evaluate the perception, and the satisfaction of the sampling group towards media and special hybrid event during COVID-19 pandemic. The tools in this research…

Professional development is ubiquitous in education, with over 90% of teachers engaging in professional development activities, yet often with limited perceived impact on their practice. This dissertation situates itself at the critical juncture of professional development quality and teacher self-efficacy, investigating the transformative…

In the world of higher education, expectations of college-level instructors have shifted significantly in the last few years due to the COVID-19 global pandemic. Instructors were required to be more flexible than ever before, oftentimes across different modalities. This essay models an evidence-based teaching method, interteaching (IT), that was…

Begun in the mid-90s, computers have long been a staple in teaching mathematics to engineering students. In recent years, with the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the arrival of Generation Z in tertiary education, the role of blended learning has increased. This paper highlights some of the greater challenges and successes of the transition…

The study aimed to determine the effectiveness of the blended learning modalities used by teachers in teaching Environmental Science classes in the new normal and their relationship to their academic performance. The researcher utilized the descriptive-correlational design and employed the random sampling technique. The respondents of the study…

While post-secondary institutions increasingly make online and hybrid offerings available to learners, special care must be taken to foster human and social connection. In this conceptual paper we compare four key constructs of human connection: (a) relatedness (Ryan & Deci, 2000), (b) sense of belonging (Goodenow, 1993), (c) social presence…

The role of mathematics in several scientific disciplines is undisputed; work and everyday life take great advantage of its application. Nevertheless, students often tend to not particularly like it and to consider it of little interest. It is also believed that only people with a certain attitude are capable of mastering the subject. In…
