Children are socialized into society through education, which imparts cultural values and customs and provides them with the tools necessary to contribute positively to society. In this way, education promotes economic expansion and increases public awareness of regional and global issues. To meet the requirements and expectations of…

Supporting learners in achieving high-level socially shared regulation of learning (SSRL) in the online collaborative learning (OCL) context presents challenges that the utilization of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies may help solve. However, the effective uses of AI to support multifaceted areas (cognition, metacognition, and motivation)…

Background: The growth of online higher education programs and the increasing numbers of students seeking remote learning experiences require educators to find new ways of meeting the changing learning needs of their students. One possible approach for facilitating success for online college students is fostering engagement in self-regulated…

Metacognitive activities are reported to improve learning but prompts to support metacognition have only been investigated with mixed results. In the present study, metacognitive prompts for confidence judgments were implemented in a learning platform to provide more insights into their effectiveness and their limits. Comparing the prompted group…

While the flipped classroom (FC) has been increasingly used and well-researched in Western countries, little is known about its implementation in Vietnam. Utilising symbolic interactionism as the theoretical perspective, this study reports on research into English as a foreign language (EFL) students' perspectives of self-regulation and…

With the growth of online programs in higher education, students are more likely to experience various barriers and challenges while taking online courses, such as social isolation, low motivation, distraction, and mental health issues. Mindfulness-informed pedagogy, such as contemplative pedagogy, showed its promise in decreasing students'…

Mobile devices have increased exponentially in the past decades and the rapid development of digital technology has provided rich soil for the growth of mobile learning (m-learning), which is a more convenient means of learning because of no limitations of space and time. Applying the stimulus-organism-response (S-O-R) framework, this study…

Collaborative learning increases student achievement of learning outcomes in a wide range of disciplines, including the natural sciences, and is a hallmark of authentic assessment. To help students collaborate more effectively, I have used Google Docs, a free, online word-processing program accessible using almost any internet-connected device.…

Using targeted digital tools to match career ready practices with 21st-century skills, educators can infuse 21st-century skills into lessons and assessments.

Online higher education has become more popular and available than at any other time; however, persistence rates lag behind traditional education rates. To address this problem, self-regulation can be used as a strategy to improve student performance and learning. To support self-regulation, a variety of technological tools are available to…

Autonomy of language learners in technology-supported learning environments has attracted much scholarly attention. However, few studies, to date, have examined the issue in the emerging context of language MOOCs. The present study complemented this line of research via a qualitative investigation of a group of Chinese EFL learners in an English…

Institutions of higher education play a critical role in bridging academia and workforce, yet college students find it challenging to transfer their learning across and beyond instructional formats, including online, hybrid, and face-to-face. The goals of this exploratory, sequential, mixed-methods study were to: (1) explore graduate students'…

A new challenge has become present in the field of generative artificial intelligence (AI). The fundamental nature of education, a vital element for advancing the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), now grapples with the transformative impact of AI technologies. As we stand at this intersection of progress and pedagogy, critical…

This book reviews literature and research linked to early childhood education and care (ECEC). This educational level is fundamental for acquiring key competencies for school entry and establishing the physical, cognitive, and emotional bases for lifelong learning. Preschool education should promote student autonomy as the ability of a child to…

Bioscientists such as geneticists and molecular biologists regularly demonstrate the integration of domain concepts and science inquiry practices/skills while explaining a natural phenomenon. The complexity of these concepts and skills becomes manifold at the tertiary undergraduate level and are known to be challenging for learners. They learn…
