Nursing students participating in labor support training need to learn core clinical skills to assess the delivery process to reduce the risk and labor pain of pregnant women. We proposed an approach to integrate scenario game-based learning with the experiential learning strategy to facilitate nursing students' learning performance and six core…

This quantitative, quasi-experimental study aimed to propose research-based AI constructivist learning activities by measuring students' self-perceptions of their critical thinking using the Motivational Strategies and Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ). The study utilized the input-experience-output framework to evaluate how these learning pursuits…

This study examined how peer assessment and self-assessment influence higher education students' use of three modes of regulation of learning (self-regulation, co-regulation, and socially shared regulation) in an online collaborative task during the COVID-19 epidemic. Twenty-one first-year undergraduate students were assigned to one of three…

Approaches to learning have been identified as crucial factors that influence students' mathematics performance. However, there have been mixed findings on which of the different approaches improve performance in undergraduate mathematics. Thus, this study aimed to unravel the specific effects of prior mathematics knowledge and approaches to…

The purpose of this qualitative descriptive study was to explore how learners describe what factors lead learners to abandon a learning strategy and adopt another learning strategy and how the new learning strategy differs from previously learned and implemented learning strategies to reduce the extraneous cognitive load on a single science,…

This study investigated the extent to which self-report and digital-trace measures of students' self-regulated learning in blended course designs align with each other amongst 145 first-year computer science students in a blended "computer systems" course. A self-reported Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire was used to…

This study explores the experiences and perceptions of 59 first-year university students on flipped learning systems over the course of one semester. The students carried out three separate sessions of flipped methodology classes, utilising a variety of online tools for teaching and communicating with each other. Results indicated that while the…

The development of generative artificial intelligence (AI) and its associated tools has revolutionised the learning and use of foreign languages (L2). One such tool is machine translation (MT), which has become increasingly popular among university students worldwide, spurring research on MT use in L2 writing. However, previous research has…

Big data in education promotes access to the analysis of learning behavior, yielding many valuable analysis results. However, with obscure and insufficient guidelines commonly followed when applying the analysis results, it is difficult to translate information knowledge into actionable strategies for educational practices. This study aimed to…

This study investigates the beliefs and attitudes about group work of students entering their first year of university and beginning a training program based on cooperative learning activities. Its objective is to determine the extent to which these beliefs and attitudes depend on students' prior experience with group work, their motivation for…

While light microscopy (LM) and virtual microscopy (VM) are valuable pedagogical approaches in histology education, studies comparing their effectiveness have primarily emanated from North America. This research aimed to compare the performance, satisfaction, and perception of Chinese undergraduate dental students enrolled in a histology…

When the COVID-19 pandemic began, many universities switched to fully online teaching. This unexpected switching to online teaching was challenging for both teachers and students, and restrictions that were put in place because of pandemic made this challenge even greater. However, new ways of teaching might also open new opportunities for…

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak has forced a sudden transition from face-to-face learning to online learning in higher education. This circumstance challenges university students to be more selfdirected in learning with relatively minimum assistance from their lecturers or peers. Therefore, it is becoming increasingly important to…

Procrastination could be conceptualized as a self-regulation failure. However, it is still not clear what type of self-regulation processes are precisely underlying the students' tendency to procrastinate. The main objective of our study was therefore to predict variations in academic procrastination by considering two constructs related to…

Students with a mother tongue other than English often struggle with the demands of an academic programme at tertiary institutions where the medium of instruction is English. If their English language proficiency is inadequate, it may hamper their academic progress. Students feel that their command of English is unsatisfactory, and this causes…
