High dropout rates and low pass rates are prevalent problems encountered by online learning platforms, which greatly hinder the development of online education. Drawing upon the theory of attention allocation, this study aimed to investigate the factors influencing the effectiveness of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), as well as the potential…

This article reflects a teaching experience in an archival science program offered by a Quebec university. With the aim of redesigning an online course in records management intended for undergraduate students, by incorporating more recent aspects in the course curriculum, a pedagogical approach based on the ADDIE model (analysis, design,…

The present study aims to design a model course on Information Literacy (IL) and Research Ethics (RE) for university curricula and examine the role of this course in university ranking. The study followed a mixed approach to collect required data for designing the course. First, research students' responses regarding IL and RE were collected using…

Computer programming is a skill of increasing importance in scientific and technological fields. However, in introductory computer science (CS1) courses in higher education, approximately one in every three students fails. A common reason is that students are overwhelmed by an accelerated and inflexible pace of learning that jeopardizes success.…

The purpose of this study was to analyze faculty selections of course content in introductory-adapted physical education courses syllabi pertaining to content on inclusion at three universities in Chile.

Countries are trying to ensure that students develop their cognitive, affective, and scientific process skills by integrating the STEM learning approach into their education systems. In this…

In course design, topic outline organization encompasses the structuring and sequencing of topics to be delivered in a learning environment. Recent studies in topic outline optimization revolve around massive open online courses (MOOCs) due to their abundance but not much has been studied on the traditional courses. This study investigates the…

In this study, which is aimed to investigate the balance principle of the secondary school science curriculum, a case study, one of the qualitative research methods, was employed. In the study, which was conducted by using case design, data analysis was performed by using teacher opinions, observation, and document analysis. The weighted kappa…

Much research on part-time Jewish educational programs has focused on curricular content and pedagogy. Yet classrooms involve diverse exchanges about curricular subjects as well as those that appear little related to Jewish studies; both are motivated by assumptions about which things count as Jewish matters of concern and appropriate orientations…

The rising demand for high-quality, timely content for online and blended learning environments presents significant challenges for instructional designers, particularly in managing resource-intensive tasks such as video production and image sourcing. This study investigates the impact of using artificial intelligence (AI), specifically large…

Based on an exhaustive study from 2001-2003 involving 14 high schools in the EU, a definition of the educational content and the aligned methodology for high school levels was developed for two areas--cyber safety and cybersecurity--with the aim of improving the knowledge and skills of students and their teachers. Available sources, including…

The pandemic resulted in many courses being shifted to online delivery, but some courses are designed as online courses from their conception. Courses intentionally designed for online delivery should be well-received by students, but it is not clear which aspects of courses students find particularly appealing and unappealing.
