There has been an increasing interest in the development of student question-generation (SQG) systems since 2000. To offer a holistic and detailed view of extant SQG systems, a two-dimensional classification scheme was derived to identify commonly embedded ancillary functionalities and design features in the 54 SQG learning systems located through…

More and more systematic reviews (SRs) are being published in the educational sciences. This umbrella mapping review examines 576 SRs published between 2018 and 2022 in the field of open, distance, and digital education (ODDE) to investigate publication and authorship patterns and to evaluate the quality of these SRs. A quality index score was…

Gamification allows for the implementation of experiences that simulate the design of (video) games, giving individuals the opportunity to be the protagonists in them. Its inclusion in the educational environment responds to the need to adapt teaching-learning processes to the characteristics of homo videoludens, placing value once again on the…

This systematic review aims to identify the research trend and gap of strategy-based instruction research in second or foreign language domain from 2000 to 2021. The study involves both bibliometric and content analysis. To gain an overall understanding of the research on strategy-based instruction, this study employs keywords co-occurrence…

What are the features of high-quality online courses in higher education? In this scoping review, we explore peer-reviewed scholarship related to the features of online learning in postsecondary contexts. We searched ERIC (EBSCO), Education Research Complete, and SocINDEX with Fulltext to retrieve peer-reviewed literature from 2010-2022 pertaining…

The purposes of this study are (1) to explore the concept of design thinking/human-centred design as expressed across the literature, using a systematic content analysis methodology, and (2) to arrive at empirically-based implications and recommendations for the instructional design field drawn from this search and analysis. Since 2000, design…

The purpose of this study was to analyze 32 dissertations that used the Modified Instructional Perspective Inventory (MIPI) by John Henschke (1989) for tendencies and new meanings. Three tendencies resulted: (a) the MIPI tends to improve any learning environment, (b) the MIPI tends to be an accelerant for change toward improving any learning…

Studies measuring online learning have adopted different perspectives, resulting in different approaches to their assessment of online learning. However, when we consider the literature from a wider angle, there may be complimentary or contrasting relationships. This study performed content analysis on a total of 44 studies that used…

Implementing high-leverage teaching practices (HLTPs) for language learning can help ensure teachers create and deliver a high-quality curriculum, especially when working with Novice learners who require more scaffolded instruction. This study aimed to fill a gap by identifying print resources and approaches available to support world language…

Use of learning management systems is prevalent across the continuum of education formats (online, blended, face-to-face). Specific asynchronous tools such as the discussion board are effective for student-instructor and student-student communication [Calderon, Ginsberg, and Ciabocchi (2012); Jorczak, R. L., & Dupuis, D. N. (2014). Differences…

The present study aimed at conducting content analysis on dissertations carried out so far in the field of Educational Technology in Turkey. A total of 137 dissertations were examined to determine the key words, academic discipline, research areas, theoretical frameworks, research designs and models, statistical analyses, data collection tools,…

New virtual reality (VR) applications for education appear frequently in the marketplace but rarely contain explicit pedagogies. The research objective of this study was to identify and categorize principles and practices of pedagogy that are evident but not articulated in selected VR applications for education. Analysis of public content for the…

The exponential growth in technological capability has resulted in increased interest on the short- and long-term effects of designed artifacts, leading to a focus in many design fields on the ethics and values that are inscribed in the designs we create. While ethical awareness is a key concern in many engineering, technology, and design…

The main purpose of this study was to provide instructional suggestions for supporting science learning in digital environments based on a review of eye tracking studies in e-learning related areas. Thirty-three eye-tracking studies from 2005 to 2014 were selected from the Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) database for review. Through a…

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to inform the preparation of HRD professionals by providing an empirical analysis of the knowledge, skills, and responsibilities employers expect in the workplace. Design/methodology/approach: This study reports a qualitative content analysis of online HRD job postings. Findings: Results of this content…
