The purpose of this research is to create and evaluate the use of competency-based learning management strategies of school administrators in special areas of Lampang, Thailand using the SOAR concept. Thirty participants are selected for providing information consisting of six school administrators, twelve teachers, and twelve school committee…

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic meant that online teaching in higher education became the default. Educators were, and often now continue to be, required to pivot to online teaching, necessitating them to adapt their teaching delivery, effectively engage students online, and apply existing skills to new and unfamiliar pedagogical contexts.…

Flipped classrooms invert the traditional (lecture-based) classroom such that students review materials before class, and then participate in active learning techniques during class. While flipped classrooms have generally been shown to be beneficial, recent research indicates that there are numerous moderators that make an impact on learning…

We investigated whether finger pointing is an effective cognitive-load self-management strategy to mitigate the split-attention effect during learning. This effect holds that learning from split-attention examples consisting of spatially separated, but mutually referring text and picture, is less effective than learning from equivalent spatially…

The study aimed to identify the importance of using stimulants of cognition strategies in the teaching-learning process and to identify the most prominent types of these stimulants, based on a survey of the relevant literature. To achieve these two objectives, the researcher followed the steps of the descriptive approach and the analytical…

The demand for privacy specialists is expected to increase, but there is a shortage of them to meet market demands. Certain ICT skills and competencies are required for professionals who develop, manage, and protect data that drive the digital world. The current study explores undergraduate students' attitude about different teaching strategies…

The emergence of advanced information technology has revolutionized education and accentuated the demand for high-quality learning. However, many teachers fall short of using technology effectively and optimizing instructional design to promote deeper learning. To address this issue, this study proposes a four-element flipped learning model, which…

Outcomes-based teaching and learning (OBTL) has emerged as one of the useful pedagogical approaches and is widely adopted in countries such as Hong Kong and the Philippines. However, it has been observed that many classroom teachers struggle in faithfully implementing it because of the lack of a tool that would provide rich feedback regarding its…

The perception of 3D features from 2D representations depend on their number of salient features, recognizable canonical axes, and orientations. Informed by form-perception literature, we proposed a hexagonal prism as an external reference frame to identify positions of elements in relation to each other and the observer when studying Diels-Alder…

The active process of digitalisation of all spheres of human activity, defined as the Industrial Revolution 4.0, has a direct impact on the transformation of the education system and learning management in the direction of meeting the need for lifelong learning and adapting to the dynamically changing requirements of the global labour market. This…

We explored the usage of smartphones in university classrooms across three different countries from the instructor's perspective. Using a qualitative, cross-cultural approach, we interviewed 30 instructors via semi-structured interviews to understand their viewpoints and experience with student smartphone usage in class. Instructors reported…

This article describes the case of a team of scholar practitioners working to recognize student learning via a campus-wide co-curricular record project at a large, public, highly-decentralized university. The case was influenced by two key tensions at the university: an inconsistent usage of learning outcomes campus-wide and lack of experience…

Purpose: Feedback is crucial in a learning process, particularly in an online interaction where both learners and instructors are distantly located. Thus, this paper aims to investigate the association between feedback strategies, embedded course syllabus and learning improvement in the Sakai Learning Management System.…

Professionals are increasingly involved in attempts to understand and address problems with wicked tendencies, which require crossing boundaries between disciplines, organisations and stakeholder perspectives. This multiple-case study investigated six higher professional education courses in order to develop better understanding of how teachers…

Cognitively Guided Instruction (CGI) is a mathematics instructional strategy that focuses on students using problem-solving strategies to construct their own understanding. Little research has been conducted to help determine what CGI could look like in other subject areas. The purpose of this study was to investigate ways to apply CGI to a…
