The pervasive influence of communication technology has profoundly shaped contemporary life, significantly impacting global education. The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the adoption of technologies like social media platforms and massive open online courses (MOOCs) as substitutes for traditional in-person education, exposing shortcomings,…

Most previous studies have focused on learners' self-efficacy in face-to-face learning environments, while few have delved into that of MOOC learners. No research has touched upon the MOOC self-efficacy of engineering students in developed and developing countries. This research compared the self-efficacy levels of engineering students in Taiwan…

The ultimate goals of education and training are the development of learners' learning outcomes. The prospect of achieving high academic results should function as a driving force for students to be engaged in learning. Recognition of the factors affecting their learning satisfaction should facilitate their learning process, especially in online…

Blended massive open online courses (bMOOCs) have emerged as a potential educational model that combines conventional in-person instruction with online learning. The investigation into students' level of interaction in bMOOCs is significant to the effective implementation of bMOOCs in higher education. This study investigates the perceived level…

In the rapidly evolving landscape of online education, understanding what drives student satisfaction is crucial for designing effective learning experiences. The study examines the factors influencing English as a foreign language (EFL) students' satisfaction with online cooperative learning (CL) in massive open online courses (MOOCs). Employing…

The ability to self-regulate learning in Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) plays a crucial role in the success of learners. Previous studies indicated the positive impact of self-regulated learning (SRL) strategies on students' learning behaviours and academic outcomes in massive open online courses (MOOCs), yet empirical studies on the impact…

Self-regulated learning (SRL) has been extensively explored in psychological research, particularly for its influential role in online education systems. Despite its importance, little is understood about how SRL-focused training impacts students' academic experiences. This study seeks to address this gap by examining SRL interventions within…

The present study does have a great contribution to Vietnamese higher education institutions that adopted blended learning using Coursera MOOCs, especially blending the courses with offline mentors in brick-and-mortar classrooms. In the current study, the perceived value of constructs of the extended UTAUT2 model with additional variables of…

Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) can provide important professional learning opportunities for teachers throughout the world. Despite high enrollment rates, learner engagement in MOOCs has been generally low, as reflected in their low completion rates. This is in part due to a combination of high flexibility and limited support and…

This research is unique to a Vietnamese higher education institution that adopted blended learning using Coursera MOOCs. Employing the service quality model, the objective was to investigate factors affecting the continuance intention and recommendation to others towards blended learning using Coursera MOOCs. This study was conducted an online…

This triangulation mixed methods study employed the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to investigate the factors affecting continuance intention toward Coursera MOOCs blended learning (CMBL) with undergraduate students at a Vietnamese private higher education institution (HEI). IBM AMOS version 24 was employed, with which Confirmatory Factor…
