The proliferation of digital learning platforms has revolutionized the generation, accessibility, and dissemination of educational resources, fostered collaborative learning environments and producing vast amounts of interaction data. Machine learning (ML) algorithms have emerged as powerful tools for analyzing these complex datasets, uncovering…

Background and Context: While higher education in Norway intends to ensure students can translate academic learning to real-world settings, a gap persists in computing students' perceptions of their acquired competencies. Objective: This study aims to understand the gap and explore how formative assessment with ePortfolios can help students…

The present study evaluated the validity of the Online Learner Satisfaction Instrument (OLSI) in terms of construct and convergent validity, and measurement invariance across demographic groups. The study results revealed that the factor structures generally confirmed to the original factor structure proposed in the instrument. Also, some…

Considering the pressing need for effective health education in primary schools, this systematic review rigorously evaluates various strategies designed to enhance students' health knowledge, attitudes, and behaviours. The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy, challenges, and outcomes of health education programmes that…

Experiments are considered to be essential components of science learning. This research aimed to investigate trends in the use of science experiments in online learning. A systematic literature review was carried out, with data sourced from the Scopus and Google Scholar databases. The reviewed documents were journal articles published between…

Most research on internet reading has identified skilled readers based on well-established theories of print reading. Nevertheless, an emerging body of work suggests that higher competency in print reading does not fully account for competency in internet reading comprehension. The authors conducted a descriptive video analysis of high school…

Background/purpose: The rapid advancement of technology, particularly in mobile learning, presents new opportunities for flexible, accessible education. In business education, especially marketing courses, integrating technology while cultivating essential 21st-century skills like critical thinking and collaboration remains challenging. This study…

Background/purpose: Several previous studies have attempted to develop Android learning media for elementary students beginning to learn counting. However, no media with a levelled adventure theme exists. The purpose of this research is to develop an android-based learning media, B'Math, to improve elementary students' counting skills.…

While high-accuracy machine learning (ML) models for predicting student learning performance have been widely explored, their deployment in real educational settings can lead to unintended harm if the predictions are biased. This study systematically examines the trade-offs between prediction accuracy and fairness in ML models trained on the…

Background/purpose: In the context of the digital era, students' motivation and engagement have become increasingly influenced by their level of digital skills. This systematic review was conducted to explore how digital competencies impact motivation in e-learning environments, particularly in educational settings. The purpose of the study was to…

The effects of massed versus distributed learning have been well studied in the verbal and motor learning literature, with findings suggesting enhanced outcomes from distributing learning over time. However, some studies have found limited evidence to support enhanced outcomes from distributed learning when applied to an entire academic course.…

More students from non-traditional backgrounds will attend university in the future. Universities must have effective Support for Students Policies and should limit instances where students fail with little to no personal benefit, such as 'zero-fails' (failed units with a cumulative mark of zero). The aim of this action research study was to…

The aim of this study is to analyze the ethical positions of pre-service teachers in the online ethics education process. The method of the research is embedded mixed design from mixed research methods. Ethical Position Scale and dilemma scenarios were used as pretest and posttest in the study. Data were collected online at the beginning and end…

This article reports the results of a mixed-methods research project at one UK university to explore student experiences before, during, and after the COVID-19 lockdowns. The research questions were 'Which HE learning experiences will be retained?' and 'Which HE learning experiences will evolve?'. All final-year undergraduates in the 2021/22…

This review critically examines the complex ethical challenges facing higher education and underscores the urgent need for comprehensive and proactive strategies to address them. Ethical issues now occupy a central position in higher education, threatening foundational principles of academic integrity. Plagiarism, contract cheating, and admissions…
