Research on multi-attempt online assessments is sparse and inconclusive and lacks the voice of students. To help bridge the gap, this paper analyzes student survey data across multiple supply chain management classes. The results show that students prefer three attempts on quantitative assessments. The preferences do not depend on age, gender or…

Despite their growing importance, differential, process-oriented research on Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) for professional learning is scarce. This paper explores learner behavior in Enterprise MOOCs using lag sequential analysis. Data from 13 MOOCs on business and technology-related topics with a total of N = 72,668 active learners were…

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…

The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted most aspects of daily life and higher education has not been spared. Social distancing requirements meant that at some point, educational institutions had to transition to remote teaching. This shift enabled classes to continue running both synchronously and asynchronously. A state university in the…

This article reports on the development and initial feasibility of virtual assessment procedures for a sentence-writing probe for remote instructional purposes with intermediate-grade students. The study included a sample of 15 intermediate-grade children. The sentence-writing probe was administered through video conferencing software, an…

As online courses and degree program offerings at colleges and universities continue to grow, further exploration of the unique characteristics of distance education faculty is warranted. For example, research suggests faculty job satisfaction can impact the overall quality of online courses (Bolliger & Martindale, 2004; Bolliger et al.,…

The performance evaluation of e-learning in medical education has been the subject of much research lately. Researchers are yet to achieve a consensus on the definition of performance or the suitable constructs, metrics, models, and methods to help understand student performance. Through a systematic review, this study put forward a working…

The goal of this study was to examine the relationship between students' motivation for learning in an online course and their perceptions regarding the teacher's role. 520 undergraduate students at a college participated in asynchronous online courses and responded to a closed-ended questionnaire about their motivation for learning and their…

This study focused on postsecondary students who participated in solely online educational programs. The study sought to determine if there was a correlation between student personality traits and their ability to persist in online programs. In addition, this study revealed if a certain personality profile, based on the dominant trait, correlated…

Generic statements are a fundamental linguistic tool for efficiently passing along information. Yet they can leave a lot unsaid, such as how broadly they apply. In this dissertation, I examine how generic statements work as a pedagogical tool. To do so, I use the esport "League of Legends" as a naturalistic experimental setting in which…

Engagement of learners is a critical determinant of efficacy in any educational program, and presents a unique challenge in a distributed, virtual method of delivery. The purpose of this phenomenological study is to explore lived experiences and perceptions of K-12 teachers and administrators about cognitive engagement in distributed, virtual…

The purpose of this transcendental phenomenological study was to understand how connective experiences are built between elementary teachers and parents in a virtual setting at the ABC school district in the southeastern region of the United States. The theory guiding this study was Siemens' connectiveness theory, as it explored the students'…

Background: Maintaining cohesion is critical for teams to achieve shared goals and performance outcomes within a work-integrated learning (WIL) environment. Cohesion is an emergent state that develops over time, representing the synchrony of different behavioural interactions. Cohesive teams will exhibit such phenomena by their temporal…

Cooperative learning is associated with a variety of potential benefits to students, including better comprehension and retention, improved perceptions and attitudes, and increased openness to diversity. Yet, there is limited evidence or instruction on cooperative learning activities in asynchronous online classrooms, an increasingly common course…

Students' worksheets ("Lembar Kerja Peserta Didik"/LKPD) are needed as alternative teaching materials in learning. This study aims to produce electronic students' worksheets (e-LKPD) based on creative thinking skills on the concept of environmental change. In addition, this study also aims to determine the level of validity, readability,…
