The adoption of digital learning systems is closely related to user engagement and system relevance. This quantitative research aims to explore the factors influencing students' switching intention from traditional Learning Management Systems (LMS) to a gamified LMS platform, using the Push-Pull-Mooring (PPM) framework. A conceptual model was…

In recent decades, educational reforms have introduced requirements for the digitalization of curriculum resources, including textbooks. Digital textbooks can offer new opportunities for teaching and learning mathematics through the provision of novel features such as interactivity, dynamics, feedback, and personalization. The aim of this paper is…

The rapid spread of information and communication technologies available via the internet has led to increased incorporation of e-learning systems (ELS) into education. Determining the criteria for users' effective adoption of an ELS is complex and must be multidimensional to increase user satisfaction and system effectiveness in practice and in…

This study aimed to explore how AI-based educational platforms can support personalized mathematics learning. The three prominent AI-based educational platforms for mathematics were analyzed using a framework based on four dimensions: source, target, time, and adaptation method. Specifically, this study focused on providing illustrative examples…

With an ever-increasing diverse college student population, pedagogical strategies must reflect awareness of social identity development in ways that meet the needs of all students.

In this paper, a new practical training project was designed and implemented for a Bi-based semiconductor. It is convenient to investigate the structures and properties of semiconductors for undergraduate materials chemistry. Bi-based semiconductors are getting recognition for promising sunlight-driven properties. Among them, Bi[subscript…

Background: Nationally, about 15% of students -- about 7.3 million -- receive special education services. Each of these students is legally entitled to the services specified in their Individualized Education Program (IEP) document, which is co-developed by a child's school team (e.g., teachers, school psychologist), family, and in many cases, the…

The shift towards active pedagogies in higher education that emphasize students' engagement in their own learning in and outside of the classroom has increased the ubiquity of online learning and assessment platforms for engaging students in such learning. Online learning requires self-regulated learning, which is a cyclical and temporal process…

This research is focused on the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN). The study employs a survey research design involving internal and external online facilitators. The…

The role that psychological need satisfaction and self-regulated learning play in academic online learning has been extensively researched. However, the impact of the three psychological needs, perceived autonomy, competence, and relatedness, on online self-regulated learning remains unclear. This investigated the association between the…

This study examines the cultural climate of successful groups in online undergraduate sociology courses that developed social contracts aimed at fostering positive group work experiences and academic achievement. An analysis of participants' group assessment papers investigated the most important attributes of group cultures with congenial work…

The use of educational data mining and machine learning to analyse large data sets collected by educational institutions has the potential to discover valuable insights for decision-making. One such area that has gained attention is to predict student performance by analysing large educational data sets. In the relevant literature, many studies…

In an online environment, learners control various factors related to learning. However, a closer examination is necessary to identify the factors that impact their sense of control within online learning. This study aims to explore the factors that constitute learners' sense of control in online classes and to develop a tool for measuring this…

This study sought to find out whether educated Arabs read paper or digital materials; which reading technologies they use; amount of material they read; the place where they read; how much time they spend on reading; when they read; how they reduce distractions; how they motivate themselves to read; how they interact with the text; their reading…

Although isolating, lockdown also created unexpected opportunities for connection and inspiration. This article describes the lockdown literacies of a sibling pair, Marco and Mara, as they wrote digital texts/books for Literacy-Cast, a virtual, interactive literacy space offered by Appalachian State University from March 2020-present.
