Technological developments have significantly impacted various aspects of life, most notably healthcare and education. A nursing education shift was required to prepare digital generation. Consequently, nurse educators must adopt innovative approaches to teaching and learning, like incorporating immersive virtual reality (VR) into human anatomy…

Background: The healthcare and educational sectors in Africa are confronted with distinct challenges, such as an increasing population, a lack of adequately trained medical personnel, and insufficient educational resources. In this context, current medical education approaches may not be adequately preparing graduates to address these complex…

Through a hierarchical multiple regression analysis, this study investigated how dimensions of online learning readiness and online connectedness influence students' intentions to continue to take online courses. Data from 369 students who took at least one online course at a four-year public university showed that online learning readiness had a…

Based on observations of a rural community and in-depth interviews with five rural women, this paper shows how access to smartphones enables marginalised rural women to engage in digital literacies in their everyday life practices. The research shows that rural women learn digital skills, communication skills, and literacies in an unplanned and…

The digitalisation of education has accelerated the transition toward heutagogical approaches, particularly in postgraduate education, fostering learner autonomy and self-directed learning. This study investigates how Master's degree students perceived and engaged with the principles of Education 3.0 and Education 4.0, focusing on their awareness,…

Purpose: This study addresses the need for a validated tool to assess self-directed learning (SDL) behaviors among Thai operational employees in the petrochemical industry. Understanding SDL capabilities is essential for effective human resource development, given the complexity of plant operations and the need for continuous skill enhancement.…

Assessing cognitive demand is crucial for research on self-regulated learning; however, discrepancies in translating essential concepts across languages can hinder the comparison of research findings. Different languages often emphasize various components and interpret certain constructs differently. This paper aims to develop a translingual set…

Purpose: This study addresses gaps in the existing literature on students' understanding of Independent Learning (IL), whilst exploring the link between levels of IL, growth mindset, motivated strategies for learning and academic performance. Design/methodology/approach: Three hundred and eighty-six university students recruited via opportunistic…

Self-directed language learning is considered as one of the most important aspect of learning process leading to individual's success in learning and working life. The systematic review study aims to explore the determinants associated with self-directed language learning of Thai EFL context, which have been carried out for a past decade between…

Almost four academic years have passed since emergency remote teaching (ERT) was employed as a temporary means for continuing education. In the post-pandemic era, residual impacts from ERT are still unfolding. Teachers reported a pronounced decrease in students' academic performance, concentration and social skills. As time passes, we seem to have…

This article explores the potential of video-based strategies to enhance learning in K-12 online physical education (OLPE), namely: video instruction, analysis, and feedback. Video instructions can optimize attention and effectively promote independent practice of motor skills when they are short, focused, and contain expert demonstrations. Video…

This study explores the integration of ChatGPT technology into Virtual Reality (VR) learning environments to support self-regulated learning (SRL) strategies and foster higher-order thinking skills (HOTS). Utilizing a randomized controlled trial (RCT) design, 81 undergraduate students were randomly assigned to either an experimental group with…

Oral practice is challenging for foreign language education, and Corrective Feedback (CF) is often used to point out learners' pronunciation errors and to help them improve their oral skills in foreign language courses. CF is generally considered as a necessary condition for foreign language acquisition, and "reflection" and…

Research competence is a cornerstone of postgraduate education, yet many Nigerian students continue to struggle with essential processes such as literature review, methodological design, and data analysis. While artificial intelligence (AI) holds considerable promise in supporting self-directed research learning (SDRL), its adoption and practical…

This article explores inquiry-based learning (IBL) pedagogy, particularly in mathematics education, examining how it differs from problem-based learning (PBL) and case-based learning (CBL). IBL is defined as a student-centered approach involving sequenced problems or tasks that build engagement and understanding through group work. While IBL, PBL,…
