In the wake of the COVID-pandemic, and from the perspective of analytical philosophy of education, this paper investigates into, and discusses, costs and benefits to online teaching in higher education. Contrasting old and new ways of teaching, notions that are developed below, notable results in the paper are the following: a) even if expedient,…

This study assesses the impact of Moodle AI-powered chatbots and metacognitive teaching approaches on the academic performance of tertiary Business education students. Using a quasi-experimental pre-test/post-test control design and Activity theory, 83 final-year Business education students were sampled from a total of 324. Data were collected…

Opportunities and concerns regarding the use of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) in higher education have evolved along with them. A concern is how their use could support the higher-order learning appropriate for higher education. Grounded in the conversational framework, this case study explored how reflective practice could be fostered in a…

This case study examines the use of the Generalized Observation and Reflection Platform (GORP)--a digital tool for developing fully customizable observation protocols as well as for collecting, analyzing, and reporting quantitative observation data--within the University of Notre Dame's Inclusive Pedagogy Partnership. We found that the tool…

The availability of large-scale learning data presents unprecedented opportunities for investigating student learning processes. However, it is challenging for instructors to fully make sense of this data and effectively support their teaching practices. This study introduces LearningViz, an interactive learning analytics dashboard to help…

The Association for Information Systems (AIS) Teaching Curation Project aims to highlight and summarize research within the association that focuses on the major courses taught in Information Systems (IS) programs. The present literature review is a companion to a curation website specific to the introductory course in IS. In this review, we…

Recently, universities and colleges have gradually shifted from face-to-face teaching to small private online course-based teaching, which integrates massive open online courses with physical classroom teaching. However, learners often experience adjustment problems within this relatively new environment. This survey-based study evaluated the…

Despite the importance of physics practical work in higher education, its implementation is often hampered by various constraints and problems. Technology, such as learning management systems (LMS) and mobile learning, can offer solutions to some of these problems and enrich students' learning experiences. Therefore, this research proposes a model…

The spread of the COVID-19 pandemic has gradually promoted blended teaching based on Small Private Online Course (SPOC) as a common teaching practice in most higher education institutions. Teachers play a critical role in the successful implementation of blended teaching. Questions regarding the factors that influence teachers' implementation…

The purpose of this phenomenological study was to explore the experiences of Early College High School (ECHS) adjunct instructors teaching dual enrollment courses in a southern region school district. Through interviews with ten ECHS adjunct instructors, the researcher examined the factors contributing to their success, their professional…

A considerable amount of research using Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) has been conducted worldwide to investigate the intention and actual usage of Learning Management Systems (LMS) by tertiary staff during COVID-19. However, there seems to be a lack of such research in developing countries like South Africa. Equally…

Bichronous online learning is the intentional blending of asynchronous and synchronous online learning experiences. Twelve award-winning online instructors participated in interviews to discuss best practices they use, and benefits and challenges in bichronous online courses. When sharing best practices for bichronous online courses, online…

Technology, constantly present in current society and education, needs to make use of the most effective digital resources to optimize the teaching-learning process. Despite the growing body of literature on the pedagogical effectiveness of digital resources in a second language (L2) context, limited research has been conducted when working with…

The higher education landscape is continually evolving, with educators adapting to meet the needs, aspirations, and expectations of their students. Data technology and virtual-learning systems have become vital components in higher education operations, with many institutions incorporating online frameworks and innovations. The aims of the study…

Blended Learning (BL) is often used as a "catch-all" term describing the modern educational environment, which centers on using technology to integrate traditional face-to-face (F2F) and online paradigms in higher education for over fifty years. HyFlex is considered a subset of BL since it incorporates different modalities to support F2F…
