Dina A. Zekry; Gerard T. McKee – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2023
The paper explores current learning approaches. The authors present the Trigger-Based Discussion-Oriented Continuous learning model (TbDoC) that focuses on creating a continuous learning experience over the online and off-line (on-campus) learning environments. The model aims to create a more engaging learning environment that encourages…

Krouska, Akrivi; Troussas, Christos; Sgouropoulou, Cleo – Education and Information Technologies, 2022
The closure of educational institutions due to the COVID-19 pandemic leads imperatively to the utilization of technological advances and the Internet for enabling the continuity of learning. To this direction, Mobile Game-based Learning (MGbL) can be beneficial to teaching and learning; since, from technological perspective, most students prefer…

Abramova, Irina V.; Shilova, Zoya V.; Varankina, Vera I.; Rubanova, Irina V. – European Journal of Contemporary Education, 2019
The present article is aimed to prove that integrative-modular training is one of the conditions for the formation of students' unified vision of the professional world, and to offer a solution to the problem: what is the pedagogical model of integrative-modular training in professional preparation of students. The aim of the article is to…

Stone, Jeffrey A.; Cruz, Laura – Teaching & Learning Inquiry, 2021
Higher education has embraced integrative learning as a means of enabling students to tackle so-called "wicked" problems, i.e. problems that are sufficiently complex, contested, and ambiguous that conventional, disciplinary specific approaches are inadequate to address. However, challenges remain in defining integrative learning…

Wang, Lei; Zhen, Ziqi; Wo, Tianyu; Jiang, Bo; Sun, Hailong; Long, Xiang – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2020
Contribution: The design of an operating system (OS) experiment course with a gentle learning curve is proposed and a scalable OS experiment platform supporting learning behavior analysis is presented. Background: In the teaching practice of the OS experiment course, several problems were faced. First, the learning curve for the students is too…

Battaglia, Nicolas; Carlos, Neil; Martínez, Roxana; De Vinceni, Marcelo – Journal of Technology and Science Education, 2019
The new models of teaching and learning have their focus on technology, especially on issues related to ubiquity. The impact of ICT in education generates new learning opportunities: the mobile or ubiquitous, which open new doors to technological environments that allow students to learn at any time and place, providing, in addition, tools that…

Frydenberg, Mark; Yates, David J.; Kukesh, Julie S. – Information Systems Education Journal, 2018
As industry embraces the agile methodology for application development, universities are shifting their curricula to teach agile principles along with traditional waterfall concepts. This paper describes a simulation game offered to students in a first-year computing concepts course to introduce both models of application development. Students…

Turner, Scott Alexander; Pérez-Quiñones, Manuel A.; Edwards, Stephen H. – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2018
In computer science, students could benefit from exposure to critical programming concepts from multiple perspectives. Peer review is one method to allow students to experience authentic uses of the concepts in an activity that is not itself programming. In this work, we examine how to implement the peer review process in early, object-oriented…

Christopher Sibona; Pourreza, Saba – Information Systems Education Journal, 2018
This study explores the difference between both active learning and lecturing to teach Scrum project management in a university setting. The goal was to understand if one approach results in higher perceived learning over the other. Additionally, lesson ordering was examined to determine student preference of lecturing prior to or after an active…

Pearson, 2018
Pearson sought to explore whether attempting more unique assignments in MyLab IT, an online tutorial and assessment tool used in higher education to teach digital literacy concepts and Microsoft Office application skills, is related to higher exam scores. This Research Report presents findings from one research study: a correlational study Pearson…

Silver, Mark S. – American Journal of Business Education, 2017
During the current period of rapid technological change, business students need to emerge from their introductory course in Information Systems (IS) with a set of fundamental principles to help them "think about Information Technology (IT)" in future courses and the workplace. Given the digital revolution, they also need to appreciate…

Song, Donglei; Tavares, Adriano; Pinto, Sandro; Xu, Hao – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science & Technology Education, 2017
Over the past few decades, many researchers have tested course designs that may better engage students in developing countries, accommodate for Millennials' desires to learn and teach at will, and teach students the skills they need for their first jobs. The vision of this paper for a web design course seeks to address these issues for engineering…

Purao, Sandeep; Sein, Maung; Nilsen, Hallgeir; Larsen, Even Åby – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2017
The ideal of self-paced learning, which was introduced nearly 50 years ago by Keller in his Personalized System of Instruction (PSI), has not yet been widely adopted. In spite of its perceived promise of helping students to learn at the speed aligned to their individual backgrounds, motivation, and skills, PSI has been challenging to implement.…
