Tertiary institutions are migrating away from didactic and teacher-centred approaches, and instead, pivoting to lesson designs that encourage hands-on learning and student engagement. However, this practice is often "try and see", with few frameworks providing evidence-based approaches for practical application that demonstrates how…

This study is intended to analyze the impact of online and offline mixed teaching methods for university students due to COVID-19. The study was conducted when the government relaxed the restrictions imposed during the COVID-19 period. So, the questionnaire was created using Google Forms and then 550 Questionnaires were distributed via email. On…

Recently, universities and colleges have gradually shifted from face-to-face teaching to small private online course-based teaching, which integrates massive open online courses with physical classroom teaching. However, learners often experience adjustment problems within this relatively new environment. This survey-based study evaluated the…

The rise of the student as prosumer (producer-consumer) of educational content is a novel development that has hitherto been the subject of very little research, especially in relation to the generation of digital contents and materials for online and hybrid education in particular. This article analyses whether there are patterns of behaviour and…

The formulation of a sense of community (SOC) among students has received significant attention in the literature in recent years. However, digitally enhanced learning and COVID-19 have amplified the challenges vis-à-vis connecting students and making them feel involved and recognized in virtual learning ecologies for higher educational…

The study of online higher education learning and academic achievement has increasingly emphasized self-regulated learning (SRL). Few studies so far have investigated the blockchain-based learning management system (LMS) and adaptive SRL intervention in online higher education. This paper aimed to develop a blockchain-enabled LMS as a…

The spread of the COVID-19 pandemic has gradually promoted blended teaching based on Small Private Online Course (SPOC) as a common teaching practice in most higher education institutions. Teachers play a critical role in the successful implementation of blended teaching. Questions regarding the factors that influence teachers' implementation…

Higher vocational education has been on a trajectory of rapid development. However, the challenge of fostering effective learning in students persists. In response to this, a study was undertaken to explore the impact of an optimized model of SPOC-based blended learning (SPOC-BL) on student presence, learning satisfaction, learning motivation, and…

Sentiment analysis (SA) is widespread across all fields and has become one of the most active topics in education research, and there is a growing body of papers published. So far, however, there has been little discussion about comprehensive literature reviews in SA in education. Therefore, this study aims to review the high-qualified scientific…

Nowadays, modern technologies provide a variety of opportunities in many fields, including education. In this context, it is crucial to comprehend the possibility of developing new ways of teaching electroacoustic music using such technology tools. For this purpose, the researchers of the present study elaborated and implemented a study program…

With the advancement of mobile technology, mobile-assisted language learning (MALL) has significant potential regarding its practical applications and benefits in foreign language learning. Nevertheless, little research was conducted to examine factors regarding the facilitation of oral communication through MALL based on established theories or…

Proponents of game-based learning see potential for the inclusion of Alternate Reality Games (ARGs) in higher education. Research has shown that an ARG can support the induction and socialisation of students but engagement in educational ARGs has been disappointing. We explored whether students could learn via an ARG embedded in curriculum: if…

During the pandemic, students have been regularly engaged in what I call real time learning through chat and polling exercises. This is an exciting development, but one that also carries the risk of being poorly implemented and not achieving its intended learning outcomes. Four real time teaching methods are presented in this article for…

While research and practice centred around students and academics working together to co-create in the higher level sector has increased, co-creation in assessment remains relatively rare in a higher education context. It is acknowledged in the literature that deeper comprehension of content can be realised when students author their own questions…

This paper provides a comprehensive review of the features and trends of personalised learning.
