Despite rapid advances, modeling a variety of instructional designs to support variations in teaching and learning during the design of educational technologies is still an open challenge. In this paper, we propose a patterns based approach for the design of educational technologies to address this challenge. This is in contrast with existing…

The article describes project of the information system to control the teaching of Russian sign language. The aim of the conducted study is to consolidate existing algorithms and software tools to ensure the integrity, and objectivity in the implementation of professional training of specialists in the field of Russian sign language. The authors…

Given the increasing demand for online learning at the tertiary level, there currently exists a need to modify or develop instructional design (ID) models/approaches that can effectively facilitate the collaboration between learning designers and teachers, as well as to research the effectiveness of these models/approaches. Against this backdrop,…

In online education, learning design has a significant role in mediating student experience. Centralised approaches to learning design provide students with a coherent teaching approach across online units but little is known about their impact on the student. Understanding the influence of these overarching learning design features may be a…

Recent educational policies advocate a radical revision of science curricula and pedagogy, to support interdisciplinary practices, a distinguishing feature of contemporary science. Computational modeling (CM) is a core methodology of interdisciplinary science, as such models allow intertwining of data and theoretical perspectives from multiple…

Blended learning sets solid foundations for the utilization of educational technology in authentic student learning experiences within traditional educational contexts as well as in distance education. The author introduces an integrated and distributed model of blended learning, utilizing educational technology for authentic student learning…

This paper describes the first stages on the development of a design method of digital trainings using the collaborative authoring tool "ALO". Based on the theory of instrumental conflict (Marquet, 2005), this method highlights the necessity of the design digital trainings under the optimal harmonization for users/learners in didactic,…

The purpose of this study is to examine the student teachers' learning experiences and perceptions of using online resources during their independent study shaped with the stages of 4A accountable learner autonomy model. For their digital material design, the teacher candidates participating in this study were trained with a wide range of digital…

Software developers nowadays are adopting agile methods to overcome challenges faced by traditional methods in developing software. However, agile methods lack instructional design to take care of learning needs required in designing software for supporting teaching and learning. This study aimed at designing an integrated model using Feature…

The design and creation of digital interactive content for teaching and learning are gaining increasing importance. As this technology advances, the need to cope with everyday demands necessitates teachers and content developers to accommodate their students in this aspect. Interactive digital content provides opportunities for students to study…

The effectiveness of workplace learning programs is linked to employee/learner motivation. However, our current understanding of workplace learning does not always acknowledge the importance of learner motivation to acquire new skills. In this study, I proposed that to obtain learning success and engage employees to learn on- the- job, employers…

As an instructional tool, models can transform the student experience from the static to the dynamic, the flat to the 3D, and the siloed to the integrated. Few practical resources exist to help instructors transition toward model-based classroom practices. The "Modeling in the Classroom" evidence-based teaching guide provides instructors…

This article presents a systematic instructional design procedure to develop a Computer-Assisted Vocabulary Acquisition (CAVA) software in a consistent and reliable way. The design process involves ADDIE fundamental elements: Analyse, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. This article will describe in detail each of the five ADDIE…

The discrepancy between students' understanding of domain knowledge and their actual competencies to use tacit knowledge for a given task has been an issue to consider when instruction is designed, implemented, and revised. In this study, the researcher examines teaching and learning processes in which a Problem-Based Learning (PBL) design model…

This paper presents an approach to the initial programming learning using the four components instructional model and the Alice software. The quasi-experimental design was developed with two groups of students that attended two schools with very different socioeconomic status and school retention levels. The differences obtained in the mean of the…
