Due to the frequent utilization of technological applications in contemporary times, the quality of educational processes is rapidly evolving. This study examines students' experiences through simulation software applications. A mixed-method design is employed due to the combined use of qualitative and quantitative data collection methods.…

The aim of software engineering education is to educate students in software technologies, developments, procedures, and scientific practices to enable them to cope with industrial demands. However, the implementation of software engineering education in traditional university classrooms is restricted by the semester structure, making it difficult…

The use of social annotation tools in higher education has attracted the attention of researchers with many studies having looked at student perceptions and attitudes to them. This paper investigates students' activity and perceptions of the social annotation tool Diigo along with the extent to which they correlate with their approaches to…

This paper examines the use of Monopoly® accompanied by Microsoft Excel to assess whether an active learning activity has an impact on the DFW rates in an introductory financial accounting course. (The DFW rate is the percentage of students who earn a grade of D or F or withdraw (W) from the course.) A zero credit hour Monopoly® Lab (which…

With the widespread adoption of social networking sites among college students, discerning the relationship between social networking sites use and college students' academic performance has become a major research endeavor. However, much of the available research in this area rely on student self-reports and findings are notably inconsistent.…

With the rapid growth of digital education, e-learning has become essential for offering accessible and flexible learning opportunities. This paper investigates strategies to achieve long-term learning outcomes and reduce study time in e-learning. It explores various techniques, including self-testing, spaced repetition, and the serial position…

Software modeling is an integral practice for software engineers especially as the complexity of software solutions increase. There is precedent in industry to model information systems in terms of functions, structures, and behaviors. While constructing these models, abstraction and systems thinking are employed to determine elements essential to…

Purpose: Collaboration, communication, critical thinking and creativity are the most essential Cs of education. However, at present, these Cs are interlinked with technology to make it more effective and reliable. Educational technology infuses higher education, many people use it on a daily basis. Students are eager to adopt such technologies…

Despite the recent growth of mobile instant messenger (MIM), research into the correlation between English learners' learning gains, learning engagement, and how this engagement helps develop authentic relationships remains underexplored. This mixed-method study involved 222 college English learners to investigate their engagement in team-based…

Technology, constantly present in current society and education, needs to make use of the most effective digital resources to optimize the teaching-learning process.
