We analyzed COVID-19's impact on business students in bachelor's and master's programs across traditional, hybrid, and online learning modes using data from 209,073 students in 215 U.S. colleges. Using repeated measures ANOVA and Friedman's test for this longitudinal study, we compared four periods from 2016-2023: pre-pandemic, a 5-month…

Background/purpose. Morocco's recent higher education reform, Pacte ESRI-2030, lays emphasis on digital skills, a major component of Power Skills, as a catalyst for student success. Pursuant to this, the current study aimed at assessing the effectiveness of a blended learning model in improving undergraduate students' digital literacy skills.…

In 2018, the Texas Education Agency (TEA) launched a strategic competitive grant program aimed at supporting Local Education Agencies (LEA) in achieving Math Innovation Zone (MIZ) designation. This initiative's primary focus is to increase PreK - 8th grade math proficiency levels through the implementation of a blended learning model in math…

The previous expansion of EdTech as a substitute for traditional learning around the world, the recent full-scale substitution due to COVID-19, and potential future shifts to blended approaches suggest that it is imperative to understand input substitutability between in-person and online learning. We explore input substitutability in education by…

Background: Male students' achievements in female-dominated study programs have garnered limited research attention. This study investigates the relationship between psychology students' perceived diversity climate and their learning outcomes in a gender-mixed computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) course in introductory psychology. Our…

The COVID-19 pandemic affected schools worldwide. When schools shut down, teachers and students had no choice but to go to remote learning. A school in a rural setting participated in blended learning where students did a combination of asynchronous and synchronous learning. The subject of this study was two sixth grade groups of students with the…

Elearning in a blended learning approach provides enormous opportunities for working nurses to further their studies and enhance their professional development and life-long learning. To date, the impact of self-directed learning (SDL) abilities among working nurses in elearning education in Malaysia remains uncertain. This study aims to…

We estimate how much the average grade of students enrolled in introductory macroeconomics changes when the professor sends a reminder email. We utilize observational data to implement a difference-in-differences strategy and identify the plausibly causal effect of email nudges on the student's grade. The professor's reminder email boosts…

This mixed methods study evaluated the effectiveness and implementation quality of the "Virtual?STEM Role Model Connection," a technology enabled role model program designed to boost STEM motivation and academic achievement among underrepresented rural youth. Context and Participants.?From?2021?to?2024, the program linked middle and high…

Virtual instruction and blended learning are two of the fastest growing learning modalities in K-12 education. Blended learning is a formal education program in which students learn at least in part through online learning with some element of student control over time, place, path or pace and at least in part at a supervised brick and mortar…

This study examines the impact of an online math learning program on third through fifth grade math achievement in Louisiana. Employing Zearn Math usage metrics and administrative data from the Louisiana Department of Education, the results indicate that grade levels that programmatically used Zearn Math scored, on average, about .03 standard…

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, schools were forced to close their doors and alternative learning environments had to be established (Wyse et al., 2020). Most districts addressed this issue by creating virtual learning environments (Kaffenberger, 2021). The creation, adoption, and navigation of this new virtual environment created a plethora of…

One of the primary goals of adult basic education programs is to help individuals develop the reading, writing, and math skills necessary to access stable employment opportunities. In the US, this need has been largely overlooked by the burgeoning educational technology sector. To understand how learning technologies might support these learners…

The needs of students grew substantially as they experienced nearly two years of disrupted learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The amount of lost learning time has greatly impacted student achievement, as measured through the National Assessment of Educational Progress--which indicated in the percentages of students scoring in the "below…

The objective has been to know the impact of the flipped classroom methodology on the academic performance of students during their training process in relation to the traditional methodology over time, in order to establish baselines in the academic grades in both models. The research is of a quasi-experimental type of non-equivalent groups, with…
