Regarding the caliber of newly-graduated professionals, the software industry expresses discontent. Therefore, software industries spend on training these individuals to improve software development process-related skills. According to various research studies, one reason for the lack of skilled graduates is a gap between industry and academia.…

It is important that software testing courses at universities provide students with testing skills that are close to the skills needed by industry. To investigate if these courses do accomplish this role, this research provides comparison and empirical analysis of the topics provided by 80 software testing courses in nine countries around the…

Background: Our study analysed 46 articles on computer-aided translation (CAT) and its educational uses. We explored two main areas: CAT technologies in learning and teaching, and the research methodologies of these studies. Objectives: Our review covered the types of CAT technologies used, their applications in different learning settings,…

The problem addressed in this study was whether real or perceived barriers exist among higher education finance professionals, which may influence their perceptions of risk and trustworthiness to adopt FinTech. The purpose of this study was to address whether or not perceptions of the risks and trustworthiness of software applications used in…

This multi-phase dissertation explores how student placement management software can be evaluated, selected, adopted, and diffused within a university setting, considering multiple stakeholders with varying needs and differing levels of decision-making authority. Utilizing a case study design and Roger's Diffusion of Innovation framework (2003),…

Statistical software is commonly used in undergraduate social sciences statistics courses. Due to the increase in online/hybrid courses and the cost of SPSS, instructors may wish to switch to another statistical software. We cover seven programs: Excel, Google Sheets, jamovi, JASP, PSPP, R, and SOFA. We compare programs using the following…

This Praxis develops a machine learning (ML) model to address ransomware threats in higher education institutions (HEIs). HEIs are vulnerable to cyberattacks due to their open-access environments, diverse user bases, and decentralized IT systems. These vulnerabilities are compounded by limited budgets, heightened risks from increased digital…

The objective of this research is to investigate the effectiveness of integrating natural language processing (NLP) technologies into an English language learning program aimed at enhancing auditory and speaking competencies. The methodology of the research is grounded in the development and testing of the intervention effectiveness of neural…

This article investigates the effectiveness of a newly developed online tool for assessing and improving the design and accessibility of Learning Management System (LMS) sites in Higher Education. The study employs a mixed-methods approach, incorporating both quantitative and qualitative data. Results from 25 subject coordinators and 3 peer…

Eye gaze tracking has recently become indispensable for domains like virtual reality, augmented reality, human-computer interaction and advertisement. The commercial eye gaze tracking equipment is too expensive to be used by the masses. In this manuscript, a non-invasive, low-resolution ordinary camera-based system has been proposed for tracking…

Institutional repositories (IRs) remain a powerful tool for opening, sharing, and preserving scholarship. Scholarly communication (SC) services and resources are essential to promoting and supporting IRs. Linking SC services within an IR offers support to users at their point of need. This study investigates the prevalence of web linking between…

As new technological developments continue to change the educational landscape, it is not an exception in the area of proof and proving. This classroom note introduces the use of one of the trending proofs assistants -- the Lean theorem prover. We first provide a technical account of Lean, then exemplify Lean proofs in propositional logic, number…

Although digital accessibility topics are increasingly gaining inclusion in university computing classrooms, many instructors still encounter difficulties in engaging students with this subject. The Universal Design for Learning (UDL) framework, a pedagogical approach that emphasizes multiple means of engagement, offers a promising strategy to…

The growing number of students in higher education institutions, along with students' diverse educational backgrounds, is driving demand for more individual study support. Furthermore, online lectures increased due to the COVID-19 pandemic and are expected to continue, further accelerating the need for self-regulated learning. Individual digital…

Aim/Purpose: The teaching of appropriate problem-solving techniques to novice learners in undergraduate software development education is often poorly defined when compared to the delivery of programming techniques. Given the global need for qualified designers of information technology, the purpose of this research is to produce a foundational…
