Peer-led group learning is a variation of collaborative learning and is based on 'small groups of students meeting regularly with a peer -- one who has additional expertise in the subject matter -- to work on problems collaboratively' (Pazos, Micari, and Light 2010). In this study, we explored how a Slack team environment could be used in a…

The aim of this phenomenological study is to provide a deeper understanding of the impact of remote teaching on instructors' perceptions of online learning and future teaching practices amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Interpretative phenomenological analysis was used to analyze open-ended semi-structured interviews conducted with five higher education…

This paper reports on how drawing as an academic dialogue tool was explored as a crucial actor for driving design processes among humanistic master's students targeting their digital learning designs for online and blended learning contexts. The paper builds on a previous study that investigated students' use of self-produced visualisations during…

This study investigated the determinants of students' behavioural intention (BI) to use mobile learning management systems (M-LMS) in a blended distance learning environment. The study was undertaken at the College of Distance Education (CoDE) of the University of Cape Coast (UCC) in Ghana. Using a predictive correlational design, a 28-item…

While many academic degree programs target nontraditional students who are working professionals, the literature exploring the challenges facing nontraditional students has not considered the experiences of students pursuing youth development degrees. This study explored benefits and challenges nontraditional students associate with participating…

In this classroom note, we describe the use of a wiki to aggregate student solutions to calculation-based mathematics problems. We outline the setup of the wiki used to support this project, the administrative issues involved in running a wiki, and student reaction to the wiki project. We will describe how students participated, and were assessed,…

As information and communication technologies (ICT) have been rapidly developed, the computers and internet are widely used in many fields. The purpose of this study was to examine music teachers' experiences and perceptions of blended learning in elementary music classes. Using a multiple case study method, I observed four elementary music…

The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics has consistently emphasized the importance of curricular coherence in mathematics education. However, the predominance of the Internet has led to a lack of consistency in the use and quality of curricular materials. We drew on teachers' self-report of their use of curriculum materials and conducted a…

Distance learning is rapidly gaining ground globally. In this case study, we focused on professional (vocational) teacher education (PTE) student online activity in a blended learning context. We applied learning analytics (LA) to identify students' (n = 19) online study patterns. Our key interest was in determining when and what kinds of online…

Preparing for back-to-school is essential, and it is also complicated because it involves different groups of people, and they have different needs. Pandemics, like COVID-19, make the situation even more difficult. Better preparation during a pandemic needs a comprehensive understanding of the situation. However, few studies have provided such…

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted our collective normal patterns of behavior in almost all aspects of our personal and professional lives. While many K-12 and post-secondary subject area curricula lend themselves more easily to a migration to online and remote learning, technology education faces unique challenges. This research paper sought to…

For this 14th iteration of the International Conference on Educational Data Mining (EDM 2021), the conference was held completely online. EDM is organized under the auspices of the International Educational Data Mining Society and was meant to happen in Paris, France. The official theme of this year's conference was Shifting Landscape of…

This exploratory transcendental phenomenological study delved into the perceptions of selected South Texas public elementary school parents and students as they transitioned from traditional math practices to a personalized pedagogy which incorporated the constructivist model of instruction--blended learning. This study focused on fourth and fifth…

This dissertation explores a community-based internship (CBI) program, a hybridization of internship and service-learning practices. CBIs are becoming more common in higher education, but literature on the practice of integrating internships and service-learning is scarce. The purpose of this study is to develop an understanding of a CBI through…

Purpose: This paper aims to analyze the trends and contents of flipped classroom research based on 48 selected empirical articles published during 2017 and 2018. Design/methodology/approach: The inductive content analysis was used as a methodology to investigate the content of flipped classroom research, including subject-specific areas,…
