Affect dynamics in digital learning systems (DLS) research investigates how students' emotions evolve while using these systems. This information can reveal the most common emotions experienced by students and how they transition between them. Recent studies indicate that affect dynamics in DLS vary depending on students' demographic and personal…

This study examines relationships among several variables within the context of online learning in higher education including self-regulated effort, maintained situational interest, gender differences, and age-related factors. Analyzing data from a diverse Open Cyber University of Korea student sample, the research highlights a positive…

Currently, countries all over the world are deeply promoting the digital transformation of education. There is a lack of empirical research on the relationship between education digitization and education effectiveness. This study aims to explore the contribution of education digitization to education effectiveness through empirical research. This…

This study investigates the complex interplay of individual and household factors, class attendance, and academic performance within Ghana's Complementary Basic Education Program (CBEP). It aims to understand how these factors influence learner performance, particularly given persistent rural-urban learning disparities and limited empirical…

This research examined how spatial ability, sex, and cognitive styles associate with self-directed multimedia resource use (study 1) and learning outcomes (study 2). In study 1, three learning resource options were offered: two unimodal (text-only and labelled-picture) and one multimodal (picture-with-narration). Findings revealed that lower…

Purpose: The importance of metacognitive awareness in learning, on the one hand, and the necessity of considering demographic variables, on the other hand, have encouraged the researchers to conduct this research. This research aims to initially determine the relationship between the level of metacognitive awareness and demographic variables of…

Self-regulation of learning refers to the actions that students perform before, during and after their learning processes take place and has a social and collaborative component. This article analyses key dimensions of learning regulation in a sample of 697 students from different subject areas (Education, Engineering, Economics and Law studies)…

This article meta-analyzed 21 studies that tested the effectiveness of animated videos in improving learning in clinical and nonclinical settings compared with standard education. Animation was defined as the use of moving objects that are typically drawn or simulated. Videos ranged from just over 2 min in duration to 16 min in duration in…

When talking about digital resources in secondary education classrooms in the 21st Century, we must mention tools such as Mixed Reality (MR). However, we must not only have in mind the perspective and training of teachers on their use, but we must consider that the ecologies of the classroom are becoming increasingly diverse, thus demanding an…

The purpose of this quantitative, correlational-predictive study was to understand if and to what extent the demographic variables Age, Gender, and Years of Experience individually or combined predict Belief in Neurological Myths among higher education faculty in the United States. The approach utilized is grounded in the ongoing study of belief…

Background: Engineering students will be responsible for building new technologies that either mitigate or exacerbate future sustainability problems. Engineering educators are thus tasked with educating engineering students on the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors that will make them change makers of the future. Purpose: The purpose of this…

The evolving landscape of higher education requires a better understanding of students' cognitive strengths, especially in complex disciplines such as Economics where multiple approaches to problem solving are essential. This study explored students' multiple intelligences (MI) approach to learning Economics and examined gender differences in the…

Retrieval practice is a learning strategy that has repeatedly been found to have positive effects on memory and learning. However, studies indicate that students rarely use retrieval practice on a voluntary basis. The objective of the present study was to examine students' self-regulated use of retrieval practice, and to determine whether sex and…

This paper focuses on the learning that happens in everyday life, beyond the formal learning environments of schools, colleges, and universities or even beyond community and adult education. It draws on posthuman concepts of 'learning affect' and 'new worlds' to conceptualise this as 'invisible education', affective and transformative,…

YouTube is a Web 2.0 technology-based social media platform that enables users to produce and share their own videos as well as watch and interpret other users' video materials. The purpose of this study is to determine how university students perceive educational video clips shared on YouTube and whether their perceptions differ across some…
