The adoption of online learning has been accelerated by COVID-19, including experiential learning such as service-learning (SL). This study compares the student developmental outcomes between the traditional face-to-face and e-service-learning (E-SL) to reveal the effectiveness of E-SL and its good practices. A self-reporting measurement…

A virtual classroom constructed with virtual reality technology enables a more intuitive and immersive experience for learners. The classroom climate is an important factor affecting students' learning experience and performance in a virtual environment. However, there is a lack of research on the role of climate on learning experience and…

Learning analytics aims to improve learning and teaching in digital learning environments by optimizing them. Real-time feedback, suggestions, directions, and interventions are structured in the digital learning environments. In order to structure more effective interventions, it is crucial to ascertain which of these services offered to students…

In the era of COVID-19 and right after the announcement of it as a pandemic and threat to humanity by the World Health Organization, most educational activities were globally forced to shut down their traditional teaching/learning activities. This is one of the biggest and most vital changes of educational settings which have led to migration to…

Online learning has been greatly widespread since the explosion of COVID-19. However, due to the lack of interaction between teachers and students in online courses, it is very difficult for students to focus on course content and complete the learning. Therefore, we developed a novel intelligent multilevel knowledge graph to help students quickly…

Schools and universities insisted on using live instructions and synchronous learning for the main strategy of learning during the global crisis. For this reason, it may be critical to investigate the students' use and acceptance of live instruction behaviors to see if they use it or not. The purpose of this research is to investigate the factors…

Computer-based simulations are highly effective in supporting students' deep conceptual understanding of scientific ideas. However, in the unprecedented era of the COVID-19 outbreak, students around the world experienced an induced state anxiety, which may have affected their engagement with the learning environments and ultimately their academic…

Many professionals consider computational thinking an essential skill in the twenty-first century. Furthermore, some studies demonstrate that computer-based networking skills and digital environments can improve computational thinking. A challenging question to be addressed is whether informal learning in a digital context is related to…

The current investigation reflects on the insufficient performance of students in virtual exams in the era of transformation of the physical mode of education to digital one due to the passive adaptation to the technical drive of the virtual environment, the tenuous command of platform's technical language, especially in mathematics and physics…

The objective of this study was to evaluate undergraduate students' experiences in a synchronous online course that utilized flipped learning during the COVID-19 pandemic compared to flipped learning in a face-to-face class pre-pandemic. Upper-level undergraduate students (n = 27) in an advanced nutrition face-to-face course during the spring 2019…

Due to the spread of COVID-19 worldwide, a large number of universities had to close their campuses. To maintain teaching and learning during this disruption to the traditional teaching, most universities have adopted online teaching model.
