Online education is considered a type of education in which students and faculty members use their own devices to access the internet instead of presenting physically in the institution. The present study aimed to explore positive exploration of online teaching-learning at the postgraduate level at the University of Dhaka. Under a qualitative…

Purpose: This study aims to identify and understand the quality of Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM) final-year students who began their studies with an online learning approach during the COVID-19 pandemic in internship programmes. It examines the development of these interns' quality in terms of technical skills, analytical skills,…

This is a collaborative article co-authored by an EdD Director and five doctoral students who are embarking on their final year research journey. The article offers 1) a discussion of the design and development of a global and career-advancement-centered doctoral digital portfolio (DDP), and 2) an advocacy towards alternative dissertation formats…

Many different factors influence students' sense of belonging in an online learning. One area of the learning experience in which a sense of "belonging" is critical is in online asynchronous discussions, and the degree to which students feel that their contributions to those discussions are valued. Unfortunately, the structure of…

The long-standing traditions of the dissertation are long overdue for a challenge. Creative and disruptive thinkers operate with a default "what if?" mindset that helps them challenge the status quo (Carter & Krahenbuhl, 2022). It is time for creative minds in higher education to kick-start how and why they see new opportunities…

Even though virtual labs help students learn science content, little is known about how well students can later apply this learning to other contexts or tasks when compared to students who performed physical labs. The goal of this study was to understand how students who perform physical versus virtual labs were able to later apply what they learn…

The objective of this article is to examine the most effective and expedient methods for identifying instances of hidden machine translation (MT) usage by student translators in their translation assignments and examinations. Additionally, the article aims to propose a system of incentives to reduce students' reliance on MT. This initiative was…

This study investigated (1) how students and their families' choices of learning modality differed by student demographics, (2) how much movement (i.e. learning modality changes) occurred during the pandemic school year, and (3) the mediating effect of movement on the relation between initial learning modality choices and students' mathematics…

E-portfolios have emerged as valuable tools in language education, allowing students to collect, reflect on, and showcase their learning experiences. While many studies focus on e-portfolios for individual learners, this article examines their implementation at the program level within an Arabic language curriculum. The program-wide e-portfolio…

Competent online learners have dexterity as they can manoeuvre a wide range of learning technologies and online learning strategies to learn successfully. In this study, we approach university students' online learning competence as 'online learning dexterity' or an ability to manage different aspects of online learning with appropriate…

Online student engagement plays a very essential role in the improvement of academic achievements. However, the role of school support in the relationship between online student engagement and academic achievements remain uncertain; whether its impact was different during and after the COVID-19 pandemic is also still being determined. Therefore,…

We examine whether highlighting streaks--instances of repeated and consecutive behavior when completing learning tasks--encourages 4th to 6th grade students in Peru to increase their use of an online math platform and improve learning. 60,000 students were randomly assigned to receive messages that (i) highlighted streaks, (ii) provided…

Understanding the transitions among affective states during computer-based learning may guide the design of affect-responsive learning environments. Current studies have focused on the marginal strength of an affect transition, which is the average transition tendency over possible affective states preceding the transition. However, marginal…

Opportunities and challenges in the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education require thorough exploration, particularly in the context of Open and Distance Learning (ODL). This study examines faculty members' perceptions of AI's role, opportunities, and the challenges faced in its implementation to develop policy recommendations.…

The models of E-learning Readiness (ELR) are basically designed to understand the process of obtaining the basic information necessary for measuring ELR among participants. They help organizations to identify the requirements for designing, developing and implementing E-learning. These models not only help the organizations to identify the degree…
