The study aims to reveal the studies' profile on COVID-19 in journals in the field of education. For this purpose, we scanned the global COVID-19-related educational literature officially published and included in the Scopus database. "COVID", "Coronavirus", and "Corona" were used as the keywords to reach the relevant…

Attention to technology integration in teaching and learning has created a big change in the education landscape. There is no limit to the application of information technology in education in general and in mathematics education in particular. Although there have been many studies on the opportunities and applications of ICT in Mathematics…

Based on the consistent development of technologization, robotics has become widely used in many fields of activity as a tool and an educational resource. This article presents some arguments about insufficiency, as well as the importance of further academic discourse, which can serve as a starting point for similar studies and the development of…

The study investigated research topics of doctoral dissertations that examined issues in distance learning from 2000-2014. Twelve reviews of research on distance learning, spanning from 1997-2015, were identified. It was found that only one of these reviews of research (Davies, Howell, & Petri, 2010) looked at doctoral dissertations. The…

Publication of research, innovation, challenges and successes is of critical importance to the evolution of more effective distance education programming. Publication in peer reviewed journal format is the most prestigious and the most widespread form of dissemination in education and most other disciplines, thus the importance of understanding…

In the literature, there weren't any up-to-date reviews of Distance Education (DE) documents. This reveals that there was a research gap for a detailed review of distance education articles to find an up-to-date trend of distance education. The purpose of this study is to examine research and trends in DE, from the 160 selected documents, during…

Information users and their information needs are identified, and types…

This paper describes a computer support system that eliminated many of the problems associated with the usual methods of transcribing and analyzing questionnaire data. The system was created to support the course evaluation system at Athabasca University, a distance education university in Canada. The courses evaluated were all home study courses,…

Proposes a Web-based model as the infrastructure to store learning logs for analysis in distance education. Describes the method of using query language to retrieve information from a database to construct the data cube. Illustrates data-cube implementation with a group-discussion example. Shows how data-cube technology can solve the recording and…

As learners use World Wide Web-based distance learning systems over a period of years, large amounts of learning logs are generated. An instructor needs analysis tools to manage the logs and discover unusual patterns within them to improve instruction. However, logs of a Web server cannot serve as learners' portfolios to satisfy the requirements…

The Online Reference and Document Delivery Service Library Network developed at Eastern Oregon State College and operated in Eastern Oregon provides rural east Oregonians improved access to information sources via computers, telefacsimile, and telecommunications.
