Objective: Students with ADHD are often provided with an extended testing time accommodation due to various skill deficits. However, little empirical work has examined the ways in which students use their extra time, if at all, and how use relates to overall performance. Further understanding of how students use this accommodation in practice can…

As generative AI tools like ChatGPT become increasingly integrated into academic settings, understanding students' perspectives is critical--particularly in underrepresented regions such as Lebanon and Palestine. A mixed-methods approach using survey data and thematic analysis of in-depth interviews was employed to analyze students' perceived…

The goal of the present study was to explore the relations among perceived psychosocial learning environments, instructional modality, motivation, self-regulated learning, and academic achievement in blended computer science education. The participants were 207 undergraduate students enrolled in a blended online and face-to-face design course. We…

Much of learning analytics research has focused on factors influencing model generalizability of predictive models for academic performance. The degree of model generalizability across courses may depend on aspects, such as the similarity of the course setup, course material, the student cohort, or the teacher. Which of these contextual factors…

Objective: This study aims to assess addiction to social media among university students and to explore the association of addiction to social media with academic performance.
