The popularity of MOOCs and MOOC platforms prompted some universities to develop their first online courses, while others experimented with the format of existing online offerings. Despite the body of research identifying cognitive, metacognitive, and practical benefits of printed materials, there has been a shift towards an approach that…

The aim of this research was to examine the effectiveness of video feedback in improving the quality of writing components and writing skills using flipped in online class and traditional teaching. The method used in this research was a quasi-experiment by dividing participants into two experimental groups, namely the group that received video…

Utilization of online programs in higher education continues to rise. Although online counselor education programs are also rising, few studies explore the personal and professional consequences of these modalities on counselor educators.

Any advanced class in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics fields requires prerequisite knowledge. Typically, different students will have different levels of knowledge in these prerequisite areas. A prerequisite (Linear Algebra for Machine Learning course) was implemented as an interactive online course using Jupyter Notebooks and…

Stress during the learning process is thought to enhance memory formation while at the same time hinders memory retrieval. Together like a double-edged sword, stress can have both a positive and negative affect on student outcomes. Congruently, learning online brings unique challenges to students. Two distinct groups of learners at a northeastern…
