Recognizing that online teaching and learning is placed within an environment where neither the teacher nor the student has complete-control is the first step to actioning capabilities towards a humanized environment. The tool that is typically used in higher education, the learning management system (LMS), has a design that constrains learning…

School dropout is a significant issue in distance learning, and early detection is crucial for addressing the problem. Our study aims to create a binary classification model that anticipates students' activity levels based on their current achievements and engagement on a Canadian Distance learning Platform. Predicting student dropout, a common…

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the acceptance factors of e-learning among students in high schools. In this study, researchers used a combination of system acceptance models, namely UTAUT2 and TOE. The UTAUT2 framework is used to explore technology acceptance from the context of individual behavior, while TOE is used to…

Scholars have long delved into the realm of MOOCs. However, with the proliferation of diverse platforms hosting course videos, it was realized that learning experiences may vary across these platforms. Hence, this research explores the forums within two distinct online learning platforms: the formal MOOC and the informal video-sharing platform.…

Research has demonstrated the need to prepare higher education faculty for transitioning from in-person to online modality. Researchers note the need to train faculty in course design, building classroom community, and establishing a teaching presence, among other things. This paper describes a professor's participation in a university-funded…

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to explore more agile and effective learning processes that help identify potentially high-performing staff during workplace training. Design/methodology/approach: To test the efficacy of the learning-oriented assessment (LOA) process in workplace training, a pharmaceutical sales organization implemented an…

The use of a learning management system (LMS) is believed to be significant for students' academic performance, but students' attitudes regarding its use are divided. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to apply a modified version of the technology acceptance model to determine the motivators for University of Professional Studies Accra…

Learning analytics dashboards (LADs) provide educators and students with a comprehensive snapshot of the learning domain. Visualizations showcasing student learning behavioral patterns can help students gain greater self-awareness of their learning progression, and at the same time assist educators in identifying those students who may be facing…

In recent years, numerous researches have been carried out to investigate and verify how concept maps could be effective in learning management systems. This paper discusses the use of dynamic concept maps (DCMs) as a tool to encourage remediation processes among digital artefacts and analog resources and, consequently, to enhance learning…

The purpose of this qualitative action research study was to explore the teachers' perceptions on the challenges they experienced using the Schoology learning management system when teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic. I used a qualitative method with a phenomenological design. I interviewed 10 teachers using a semi-structured format, that use…

Learners use digital media during learning for a variety of reasons. Sometimes media use can be considered "on-task," e.g., to perform research or to collaborate with peers. In other cases, media use is "off-task," meaning that learners use content unrelated to their current learning task. Given the well-known problems with…

Learning management systems play a crucial role in addressing pedagogical challenges imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic. The solutions provided by the learning management systems (LMS) facilitated online instructions and helped form a community of learning and support. With the rapid increased usage during the pandemic and the return to face-to-face…

The focus of education is increasingly on learners' ability to regulate their own learning within technology-enhanced learning environments. Prior research has shown that self-regulated learning (SRL) leads to better learning performance. However, many learners struggle to productively self-regulate their learning, as they typically need to…

This study aims to measure the effectiveness of electronic civic education teaching materials integrated into LMS-SPADA in improving students' STEM reasoning ability and communication skills. In addition, this study will also measure the effect of gender on their STEM reasoning ability and communication skills. The research design is a…

Objectives: As food insecurity among college students in the United States continues to rise, large quantities of food are wasted on college campuses. This paper presents a simple, low-cost approach to address both issues, using an electronic learning management system to connect college students with good quality excess food. Participants:…
