Data mining approaches have been widely used to estimate student performance in online education. Various Machine Learning (ML) based data mining techniques have been developed to evaluate student performance accurately. However, they face specific issues in implementation. Hence, a novel hybrid Elman Neural with Apriori Mining (ENAM) approach was…

Despite e-learning's rapid growth and significant benefits, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, retaining students in this educational environment is a critical challenge in the post-corona era.

Studies have determined…

The purpose of this qualitative descriptive study was to describe how students describe how they experienced a shift from traditional to online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. The theoretical framework was Albert Bandura's Social Learning Theory. This theory was used as a lens to understand how students described their learning during…

The COVID-19 pandemic led to a global lockdown and compelled institutions to shift to emergency remote teaching. This transition and the lack of knowledge of using technology affected teaching practices, including assessment. Confronted with new contexts for assessment and threats to validity caused by ineffective proctoring, many instructors had…
