The rise of informal language learning, especially learning conducted online outside the classroom context, has received considerable scholarly attention in recent years. To date, however, there has been limited evidence-based systematic analysis of the prevalence of online informal language learning (OILL). Accordingly, we conducted a systematic…

This study introduces and validates the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge--Integrated Experiential Performance Learning (TPACK-EPL) Model, designed to enhance learners' digital competency through a structured instructional design framework. The model integrates the TPACK framework with experiential and performance-based learning,…

Financial literacy is an essential skill for individuals, yet many countries are encountering many challenges to achieving the desired level of ideal financial literacy.

Human Anatomy and Physiology (A&P) courses are a requirement for many students pursuing a healthcare career. These courses tend to have lower success rates than other entry-level courses because students are not adequately prepared for the dedication, self-discipline, and studying required for success. This problem is exacerbated for students…

Understanding homeostasis is foundational to biology; yet students often hold persistent misconceptions about its mechanisms and complexity. To address these challenges, we developed a collaborative, card-based board game in which players act as components of the endocrine and physiological systems to help a character named Bill enact homeostasis…

This research aimed to (1) study the interaction between groups of people in the community in the collaborative learning of people with different ages, (2) create a model for promoting lifelong learning of people of different ages based on community lifestyle, and (3) experiment the lifelong learning model of people with different ages based on…

The field of autonomous language learning in second language acquisition has experienced significant growth since its introduction by Holec in the 1980s. Several studies have explored how to promote learning autonomy in various spaces, including online learning environments. However, research related to autonomous language learning in online…

Purpose: Podcasting is a new mobile technology application for language learning. Drawing upon the stimulus-organism-response model and the interest driven creator (IDC) theory from e-learning, this study aims to develop and test an integrative conceptual framework. This study investigates contextual and environmental stimuli effects (content…

Project-based learning (PjBL) has been increasingly promoted and extended to online environments to enhance the quality of higher education. However, PjBL involves complex processes requiring higher-order thinking skills, which may pose challenges to many students especially in online settings with little prompt support from teachers. The problem…

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…

This article reflects on the author's experience of developing a standalone geographies of sport module that is taught using an active blended learning (ABL) approach. The article argues that an ABL pedagogy is an effective way of teaching meaningful sports geography to undergraduate students. It discusses how the approach allows a diverse range…

The characteristic differences of participants affect their reactions to various gamification elements. Thus, it is critical to reveal the impact different type of students on gamified interventions, and the relation of personality features and gamified learning process. In this study, it is compered the motivation and perception of participants…

The research on classroom management in general is numerous, yet the connection between digitization, classroom management, and Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) has been understudied. The current study explored how primary school teachers managed their digital classrooms while incorporating social and emotional learning into their classroom…

The experience of "interbeing" -- or a deep, authentic feeling of the continuum between our inner-selves, each other and the natural world -- gives a profound sense of interconnectedness. Teachings of "interbeing" have roots in ancient knowledges yet offer insight into how we might respond collectively and purposefully to the…

In this article, we examine the potential of collaborative online international learning as a borderland third space for global citizenship education. Border thinking is used as a mode of critical questioning and reflection of ways of relating to the world, of feeling, acting, living and inhabiting the world that emanates from plural knowledges…
