As generative AI tools are increasingly popular in today's teaching and learning process, challenges and opportunities occur at the same time. Self-directed learning has been regarded as a powerful learning ability that supports learners in informal learning contexts and its importance rises in salience when incorporating AI into learning. This…

Background: In the field of Learning Design, it is common that researchers analyse manually design artefacts created by practitioners, using pedagogically-grounded approaches (e.g., Bloom's Taxonomy), both to understand and later to support practitioners' design practices. Automatizing these high-level pedagogically-grounded analyses would enable…

Background: Although problem based learning has a great potential to promote learning outcomes as well as cognitive abilities, the number of previous studies investigating this potential on critical thinking, reading comprehension abilities and attitudes in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) context is scarce. Also, the number of studies…

In work-based learning (WBL), autodidactic, informal, nonformal, and formal approaches to learning are viewed not as dichotomous, distinct, or divergent spheres along a continuum but as intersected and clustered spheres. In WBL, prior learning, professional development, advanced standing, and other forms of learning are therefore formally…

This study focuses on the problem that the process of building learning habits has not been clearly described. Therefore, we aim to extract the stages of learning habits from log data. We propose a data model to extract stages of learning habits based on the transtheoretical model and apply the model to the learning logs of self-directed extensive…

In this study, the CEEBL teaching framework is further explored across three academic levels of online business courses. These classes emphasize collaborative teamwork using hands-on activities with projects aimed at tackling real world challenges. Students form affinity groups to co-create solutions for the projects. The study covers the building…

Learning outcomes can be predicted with machine learning algorithms that assess students' online behavior data. However, there have been few generalized predictive models for a large number of blended courses in different disciplines and in different cohorts. In this study, we examined learning outcomes in terms of learning data in all of the…

Implementation of blended teaching (BT) practices is in- creasing rapidly in K-12 classrooms. This trend creates an urgent need for professional development to support BT. An understanding of how experienced teachers implement BT can inform teacher educators and professional development leaders as they develop training to support this practice. We…

The current demand for integrating technology into English language instruction to engage students in meaningful conversations is pressing in the digital era. Despite this, research on employing Google tools for collaborative, task-based activities in English education is scarce, particularly in meeting the needs of today's digital learners and…

As online learning has become an inevitable trend in the post-peak era of the COVID-19 pandemic, distributed pair programming (DPP) is gaining momentum in both education and industry. DDP serves as a collaborative programming approach and also benefits the development of computational thinking, a fundamental skill in today's world. This study…

As innovative activities and methodologies bloom in the panorama of education, three areas of particular interest in the security and defence education field are collaborative learning, blended learning, and internationalisation. These elements are the pillars of Blended Intensive Programmes (BIPs), short mobility activities that combine…

This paper reports on systematic literature review that examined learning theories and data collection and analysis methods used to study game-based learning in research on educational digital games for K-12 populations. Through electronic database, hand, and ancestral searches, we identified 25 empirical studies (29 educational games) published…

Purpose: Developmental dyslexia is proposed to involve selective procedural memory deficits with intact declarative memory. Recent research in the domain of category learning has demonstrated that adults with dyslexia have selective deficits in Information-Integration (II) category learning that is proposed to rely on procedural learning…

Analyzing how participants learn from each other during online forums on discussion boards or social media platforms is often challenging. One of the predominant methods of analyzing such learning is through qualitative content analysis or interaction analysis. The Interaction Analysis Model (IAM), developed by Gunawardena, Lowe and Anderson which…

Flipped classes have been gaining in popularity in recent years, and yet only a handful of marketing education papers have examined flipped class methods. In a time when creative methods for engaging students online and in-person are critical, this study analyzes open-ended, qualitative student comments from a flipped class course to explore the…
