Heuristic evaluation is a fast and cheap method that can be used to identify usability flaws in mobile learning applications. In this paper, we proposed a framework for heuristic evaluation of mobile learning applications to ensure that best practices are followed, hence saving time and effort in conducting a heuristic evaluation. Ten case studies…

March 2020: The COVID-19 pandemic promoted K-12 and higher education institutions in North America to abruptly transition curricula to online and hybrid formats. As the literature notes, schools discussed digital distance learning programs long before this particular moment in the spring semester. Yet the poignant lesson from the transition had…

Drawing on a review of the literature on service-learning in Catholic higher education and the development of online service-learning, as well as an empirical case study of 2020 Vincentian Service Day at DePaul University, this article examines an alternative way to develop service-learning in Catholic schools in response to the reality and needs…

A multi-label variant of email classification named ML-EC[superscript 2] (multi-label email classification using clustering) has been proposed in this work. ML-EC[superscript 2] is a hybrid algorithm based on text clustering, text classification, frequent-term calculation (based on latent dirichlet allocation), and taxonomic term-mapping…

The aim of this article is to revise and expand Gregory Bateson's theory of learning to demonstrate how scaffolding content and context takes place in computer games. The presented revision rest on a micro-level analysis of how learning takes place in the computer game "StarCraft 2" a successful triple A (mid-sized to major publisher…

The application of computer science is fast-growing and things change day by day; with this there is a necessity to adapt to the changes as software applications are powerful tools that herald significant development in diversified fields including education. Adoption of the computer systems in various operations of schools (primary, secondary and…

The usefulness and limitation of Adaptive Hypermedia Learning System (AHLS) using Learning Style as an adaptor has been long discussed, and many empirical studies show the system can help students increase their academic performance comparing with the traditional classroom learning, but these studies were based on different subjects and…

The COVID-19 outbreak across the globe has forced educational institutions including medical schools to suspend campus learning in order to curb the spread of the virus.

Teaching and learning processes have not experienced major changes during the last centuries. However, eLearning platforms may transform these processes, turning the classroom from a teacher-centered and standardized space into a student-centered, customizable and highly scalable environment. These changes impact many different stakeholders such…

The great advantages of e-learning have been recognized, and efforts have been made to promote e-learning adoption. Despite valuable research achievements from technology adoption, previous studies built their models from different perspectives. In this study, to offer a comprehensive research model on e-learning adoption, we integrated these…

Calls for instructional innovation in higher education assert that the current system suffers from one or more of the following problems: access constraints that stymie social and economic mobility, spending norms that over time inflate cost relative to value, and student outcomes that fail to adequately encourage citizenship and enhance…

Purpose: In this child-parent research study, three adolescents theorize their meaning-making experiences while engaged in exclusive online learning during a three-month stay-at-home mandate. The purpose of this study is to highlight youth-created understandings about their literacy practices during COVID-19 in order to expand possibilities for…
