Rubrics play a crucial role in shaping educational assessment, providing clear criteria for both teaching and learning. The advent of online rubric platforms has the potential to significantly enhance the effectiveness of rubrics in educational contexts, offering innovative features for assessment and feedback through the creation of erubrics.…

The advent of the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the need to conduct synchronous online instruction in which students and faculty were distributed geographically but aggregated digitally onto a single screen on a computer. This approach will likely persist into the future. Thus, a better understanding of how engagement approaches can be adapted to…

This article presents the results of an experiment in personalizing course content and learning activity model tailored for online courses based on students' learning styles. The main research objectives are to design and pilot a model to determine students' learning styles to create personalized online courses. The study also addressed an…

Bibliometric mapping is widely used in educational technology research to visualize research field development (e.g. the current status and trend). However, there has been limited research examining the present state, challenges, and potential applications of bibliometric mapping techniques in the field of educational technology. In an effort to…

Distance learning has become a necessity and a common practice, using electronic devices and the Internet to facilitate online classes and exams. One course in undergraduate electrical engineering is the Digital Signal Processing (DSP) course, which requires exposure to theoretical concepts as well as simulations. In this paper, we propose a…

Recent research suggests the benefits of supporting a progressive understanding of concepts of inference prior to the teaching of procedures and formal calculations through the study of informal statistical inference (ISI). To contribute to the growing knowledge about the early learning and teaching of statistics, particularly regarding the…

This report describes the use of electroencephalography (EEG) to collect online learners' physiological information. Recent technological advancements allow the unobtrusive collection of live neurosignals while learners are engaged in online activities. In the context of multimodal learning analytics, we discuss the potential use of this new…

Emotions are vital to learning success, especially in online learning environments. They make the difference between learning success and failure. Unfortunately, learners' emotional state is still rarely considered in online learning and teaching, although it is an important driver of learning success. This paper reports a work-in-progress…

An online authentic learning environment (OnALE) is proposed in this study to facilitate students' learning of inferential statistics in a real-life context. The efficacy of the OnALE, in comparison to the conventional approach relative to the students' performance, was explored. Respondents from the experimental group were purposively selected to…

The Community of Inquiry (CoI) framework has gained widespread recognition as a theoretical model for understanding student learning in online environments. Despite its prevalence, CoI has been critiqued for its limited emphasis on learners' proactive roles in self-regulating their own learning. To address this, researchers have suggested…

This case study examines an online introductory Spanish-English translation course focused on learning Spanish through machine translation. Fifty-three Spanish learners were guided by their teacher to rethink, reflect, and interpret what Google Translate offered. Quantitative and qualitative analyses of learners' reports and teacher feedback…

With the improvement of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs, online learning has become a viable means for teaching and learning. Nonetheless, online learning is still facing various challenges. The challenges include lack of support and loneliness experienced by learners. Adaptive online learning is one of the means that researchers…

The COVID-19 pandemic fundamentally reshaped higher education by forcing institutions into a rapid transition to online learning. Universities have had to quickly incorporate and adjust existing technical resources to accommodate this abrupt transition. This has also involved professors and researchers who may not possess a natural, technological…

Peer assessment has an important role in teaching and learning nowadays. However, the existing techniques tend to be limited due to a lack of a suitable means to evaluate the accuracy of peer assessment activities and supervise peer assessment performances in an online environment. Hence, it is very necessary to develop new solutions encourage…

Self-regulated learning (SRL) is a crucial higher-order skill required by learners of the 21st century, who will need to become lifelong learners to adapt to the continually changing environments. Literature provides examples of tools for scaffolding SRL in online environments. In this article, we provide the state-of-the-art concerning tools that…
