Siddique, Ansar; Durrani, Qaiser S.; Naqvi, Husnain A. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2019
The falling learning outcome is one of the major challenges faced by most of the educational systems. Adaptive educational systems (AESs) are viewed as catalyst to reinforce learning. Several AESs have been developed considering only single aspect of learners, for example, learning styles. The impact of learning style-based AESs in terms of…

Yuviler-Gavish, Nirit; Krisher, Hagit – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2016
Computerized training systems offer a promising new direction in the training of executive functions, in part because they can easily be designed to offer feedback to learners. Yet, feedback is a double-edged sword, serving a positive motivational role while at the same time carrying the risk that learners may become dependent on the feedback they…

Alrasheedi, Muasaad; Capretz, Luiz Fernando; Raza, Arif – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2015
The phenomenon of the use of a mobile learning (m-Learning) platform in educational institutions is slowly gaining momentum. However, the enthusiasm with which mobile phones have been welcomed into every aspect of our lives is not yet apparent in the educational sector. To understand the reason, it is important to understand user expectations of…

Benson, Susan N. Kushner; Ward, Cheryl L. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2013
In this study, we used the TPACK profile as a framework for evaluating teaching expertise in higher education. Through interviews and non-participant observation, we created individual TPACK profiles for three professors within a college of education in a large Midwestern university. The profiles illustrate how each professor's degree of Content,…
