Data from student learning provide learning curves that, ideally, demonstrate improvement in student performance over time. Existing data mining methods can leverage these data to characterize and improve the domain models that support a learning environment, and these methods have been validated both with already-collected data, and in…

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to provide an integrated framework to indicate which antecedents of absorptive capacity (AC) influence its learning processes, and to propose testing of this model in future work. Design/methodology/approach Relevant literature into the antecedents of AC was critically reviewed and analysed with the objective…

The increased usage of computer-based learning platforms and online tools in classrooms presents new opportunities to not only study the underlying constructs involved in the learning process, but also use this information to identify and aid struggling students. Many learning platforms, particularly those driving or supplementing instruction, are…

Engaging students in active learning is linked to positive learning outcomes. This study aims to synthesise the peer-reviewed literature about "active learning" in college science classroom settings. Using the methodology of an integrative literature review, 337 articles archived in the Educational Resources Information Center (ERIC) are…

Learning analytics primarily deals with the optimization of learning environments and the ultimate goal of learning analytics is to improve learning and teaching efficiency. Studies on learning analytics seem to have been made in the form of adaptation engine and intervention engine. Adaptation engine studies are quite widespread, but intervention…

Examining the blended learning (b-learning) acceptance is not a new research topic, and it has been tackled by many scholars. Nevertheless, the analysis of information systems (IS) models that are used to study the acceptance of b-learning is regarded as a topic of great importance. To examine these models and afford scholars a holistic view of…

While investigating plagiarism is relevant in different fields, verification of original authorship has also attracted attention in academia and L2 learning and assessment contexts. Generally associated with academic misconduct and dishonesty, plagiarism in writing can take many shapes and be hard to detect. In addition to being a very…

The basic design course mainly focuses on training students in their form development ability, including two parts: graphic figure and three-dimensional form. However, in terms of form development, it is not just to create a certain form arbitrarily, but to convey the creator's intention based on this form. For students who are new to the field of…

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of model-based cooperative (Reading Writing Application) and individual learning methods on conceptual understandings of pre-service science teachers and to eliminate their misconceptions related to gases. For this reason, a pretest/post-test non-equivalent comparison group design was applied…

Purpose: The general goal of this paper is to help educators understand the importance of MOOC training to school teachers and their hypothetical value for predicting the use of teaching strategies in the face-to face-classroom teaching. With this purpose, the study is guided by two research questions: (1) Are there different patterns of…

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the sustainability of the proposed mobile learning framework for higher education. Most sustainability evaluation studies use quantitative and qualitative methods with statistical approaches. Sometimes, in previous studies, machine learning models were utilized conventionally.…

Digital technologies provide opportunities for enhancing teaching, learning and teacher professional development (TPD). Some TPD courses can now be learned online and require trainees to conduct self-regulated learning (SRL). The revised Self-Regulated Learning Model (RSRLM) defines seven components of self-regulation: motivation, engagement,…

This paper describes the design and development of a competency model for online instructors based on literature reviews, student surveys, and other artifacts. The first development phase included a literature review centered around researched-based competencies for online instructors and existing theories used to evaluate online instructional…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been exerting a revolutionary and profound impact on the teaching of English as Foreign Language (EFL) for decades. In spite of these acknowledged advances, teachers have numerous reservations and objections against the adoption of AI-based applications. In order to facilitate the proper use and produce an…

The methods in which self-assessment are facilitated have not been significantly addressed within the literature. Self-assessment is also fraught with concerns around reliability and validity. As a result, a systematic 3-stage plan was developed to embed self-assessment into a module design. The planning, formative and summative (PFS) model of…
