Almost five years after the COVID-19 pandemic began, the higher education learning environment has been transformed, and research on this transformation is just starting to emerge. This article contributes to this effort by reporting the results of a study comparing two-course delivery formats: hybrid in-person and HyFlex. Results found no…

Online learning has steadily increased since well before the COVID-19 pandemic (Seaman et al., 2018), but research has yet to explore online students' perceptions of online exam proctoring methods. The purpose of this exploratory study was to understand the perceptions of fully online students regarding types of proctoring at a large state…

Reflective conversations between teachers and coaches are critical to helping teachers improve their classroom instruction. Coaches who encourage teachers to "see, think, and do" are better able to facilitate meaningful reflective conversations with teachers. The "See, Think, Do" framework consists of six steps (observe,…

The purpose of this study was to examine differences in knowledge gain by curriculum delivery platform for participants receiving a community-based healthy relationships curriculum for a vulnerable population with limited income and education. Using data gathered from 613 participants gathered in 2019--2020, those who received in-person training…

This article discusses findings from semi-structured interviews with writing consultants about their affective experiences working across three different consulting modalities: in person, asynchronous, and synchronous. This study offers affect as a lens for understanding consultants' responses to and strategies for consulting in multiple…

This qualitative study examines the perspectives of K-12 school principals in urban settings on the strengths and weaknesses of various professional development program modalities. The research involved interviews with 10 urban K-12 school administrators to explore their views on in-person, online synchronous, and online asynchronous professional…

Synchronous Distance Learning (SDL) is becoming more and more popular in the academic environment, but comparisons of the effects of this type of learning with those of traditional face-to-face have often been limited to academic performance and satisfaction. The aim of this study is to compare the effects of these two learning modalities on…

Background: While a substantial number of studies have investigated English-as-a-foreign-language (EFL/L2 English) anxiety, they predominantly examined it from a unidimensional perspective, overlooking the potential insights offered by examining language-skill-specific L2 anxiety from a multidimensional lens. Moreover, prior research has…

The interest in blended synchronous learning environments has increased dramatically since the COVID-19 pandemic. However, a key challenge is how to simultaneously encourage online and onsite student participation. Response systems have been found to stimulate student participation in classroom and online education settings. This study…

This dissertation aimed to answer whether motor skills can be taught online and if the learning outcomes are similar to in-person learning. Considering the popularity of online learning, increasing our understanding of its outcomes is well warranted. Furthermore, evidence of the effectiveness of online instruction is very much in discussion.…

This study investigates the effects of pre-task planning on English as a second language (ESL) learners' engagement in oral tasks in the face-to-face real-time communication (FTF) and synchronous video-based computer-mediated communication (SvCMC) modes. A total of 36 ESL learners performed two decision-making tasks (with versus without pre-task…

This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of online synchronous and asynchronous teaching formats for undergraduate physiology education in a medical program in Ireland, with a specific focus on the use of LabTutor (Lt) LabStation online laboratory platform for remote access. To understand how the Lt platform was used by students and whether…

Online trainings in evidence-based treatments (EBT) can be effective platforms and may provide better access to community providers as compared with traditional in-person trainings. However, questions remain as to whether online trainings can achieve similar rates of training engagement and model application to traditional in-person trainings. We…

This research describes the implementation of discussion-centric blended learning (DCBL) so that it can foster student HOTS (Higher-Order Thinking Skill). There were 31 students, aged 18-20 years, in the Mathematical Statistics class involved in HOTS pre-test, DCBL and HOTS post-test activities. Audio-visual video recordings, observations and…

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore outcomes of a remote synchronous mindfulness program (RSMP) for Master of Science in Speech-Language Pathology (MS-SLP) students. Method: Twenty-nine MS-SLP students initially enrolled in the program and completed the pretest, which consisted of demographic questions, the Perceived Stress Scale…
