Chunqi Li; Lishi Liang; Luke K. Fryer; Alex Shum – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: Leaderboards are among the most popular gamification elements in education. Some studies have implemented leaderboards and reported their individual effects on students' learning. Despite the emergence of relevant empirical studies, most of the existing reviews have only investigated the holistic impact of gamification. No previous…

Nanda van der Stap; Theo van den Bogaart; Ebrahim Rahimi; Johan Versendaal – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: Online interaction in blended learning is leveraged through social presence and convergence. However, little systematic work currently exists on how researchers have explored these challenges in higher education institutions and no studies have synthesised these challenges. Objectives: The purpose of this study is to give a novel…

Ezgi Dogan; Yusuf Levent Sahin – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: It is crucial to use innovative tools to gain clinical reasoning skills through experiential learning in pharmacy education, and one of the most effective tools used in this is virtual reality. However, the lack of research that empirically demonstrates the instructional principles of virtual environment design, especially in the…

Yujen Ho – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background Study: Asynchronous online discussions are vital venues for collaborative knowledge construction. However, the lack of appropriate instruction designs poses challenges in promoting deep and substantive engagement with the core subject matter. This paper explores how to enhance adult students' knowledge construction in the context of…

Elena Drugova; Irina Zhuravleva; Ulyana Zakharova; Adel Latipov – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: Driven by the ongoing need to provide high-quality learning and teaching, universities recently have shown an increased interest in using learning analytics (LA) for improving learning design (LD). However, the evidence of such improvements is scarce, and the maturity of such research is unclear. Objectives: This study is aimed to…

Schmitz, Birgit; Hanke, Katja – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: The COVID-19 lockdown forced students and teachers to adjust to remote lecturers and digital learning material and design criteria for online classes became the centre of discussion. Objectives: The purpose of this empirical study was to investigate the relationship between design principles of educational online practices in higher…

van Harsel, Milou; Hoogerheide, Vincent; Verkoeijen, Peter; van Gog, Tamara – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2022
Nowadays, students often practice problem-solving skills in online learning environments with the help of examples and problems. This requires them to self-regulate their learning. It is questionable how novices self-regulate their learning from examples and problems and whether they need support. The present study investigated the open questions:…

Martin Merkt; Daniel Bodemer – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: When watching educational online videos, learners need to determine whether the videos' contents are suitable for learning. Whereas this may induce metacognitive monitoring processes, it may also distract learners from the learning materials. Objectives: In the current set of experiments, we investigated whether asking participants to…

Theelen, Hanneke; van Breukelen, Dave H. J. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2022
Background: Since about 2010 e-learning has been embedded in educational practice and has become, surely due to the COVID-19 pandemic, increasingly important. Objectives: Although much has been written about e-learning, little is known about crucial didactic and pedagogical design principles for e-learning. This review tried to fill that gap.…

Luo, Heng; Li, Gege; Feng, Qinna; Yang, Yuqin; Zuo, Mingzhang – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2021
This study is a systematic review of 20 years of research on the usage of virtual reality (VR) in K-12 and higher education settings, which aims to consolidate, evaluate, and communicate evidence that can inform both the theory and practice of VR-based instruction. A total of 149 articles were selected from three major academic databases using…

Saman Rizvi; Bart Rienties; Jekaterina Rogaten; René F. Kizilcec – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: Extensive research on massive open online courses (MOOCs) has focused on analysing learners' behavioural trace data to understand navigation and activity patterns, which are known to vary systematically across geo-cultural contexts. However, the perception of learners regarding the role of different learning design elements in…

Suat Kaya – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: Ambiguity prevails concerning the fundamental methodological characteristics of computer-assisted argument mapping (CAAM) learning environments, particularly in their capacity to facilitate critical thinking within tertiary education. Previous scholarly investigations have failed to furnish an exhaustive elucidation of the…

Mangaroska, Katerina; Sharma, Kshitij; Gaševic, Dragan; Giannakos, Michail – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2022
Background: Problem-solving is a multidimensional and dynamic process that requires and interlinks cognitive, metacognitive, and affective dimensions of learning. However, current approaches practiced in computing education research (CER) are not sufficient to capture information beyond the basic programming process data (i.e., IDE-log data).…

Wang, Tingting; Zheng, Juan; Tan, Chengyi; Lajoie, Susanne P. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: Computer-based scaffolding has been intensively used to facilitate students' self-regulated learning (SRL). However, most previous studies investigated how computer-based scaffoldings affected the cognitive aspect of SRL, such as knowledge gains and understanding levels. In contrast, more evidence is needed to examine the effects of…

Andersen, Martin S.; Makransky, Guido – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2021
Measuring cognitive load is important in virtual learning environments (VLE). Thus, valid and reliable measures of cognitive load are important to support instructional design in VLE. Through three studies, we investigated the validity and reliability of Leppink's Cognitive Load Scale (CLS) and developed the extraneous cognitive load (EL)…
