Numerous studies show positive cognitive and affective results regarding the adoption of mobile learning; however, adoption levels are low, and when mobile learning occurs, it is not always based on innovative pedagogies. The main objective of this study is to identify and analyse key design principles to develop a model for the adoption of mobile…

Digital technology constitutes a substantial presence in higher education and notions like 'digital natives' and '21st century digital skills' dominate educational discourse. However, within the last decade, scholars have started questioning the prevailing techno-optimism and practitioners have started debating whether and how to regulate the use…

Over 40 years ago physical education pedagogy researchers Anderson and Barrette asked the question, "What's going on in Gym?" This inquiry sparked widespread research and innovation that moved our field forward. Today, physical educators are faced with a new reality of teaching movement-based content remotely and the question has now…

This paper describes how an anatomy and physiology laboratory class transitioned from a paper-based lab to an online learning platform that updated the curriculum to rely more on face-to-face small group collaboration and peer teaching. Student perceptions of the new format were positive, but halfway through the transition a global pandemic…

In this study, we report on the design and use of an apparently unbounded spatial diagram to explore shearing, an area-preserving transformation. Apparently unbounded spatial diagrams are realizations of geometric objects, such as lines, that appear to extend indefinitely. They can be rendered in virtual reality displays where users who are…

Estimating the flow state of students in a course allows evaluating their sentimental state and the challenges they are facing. In e-learning platforms, the evaluation of flow state is a complex task because it depends on the ability to extract the parameters that better reflect the activity and effort of students. In this scope, the current study…

In the last year a new virus (SARS-CoV-2) and the disease caused by it (COVID-19) has quickly spread around the world, leading the World Health Organization to declare a public health emergency and, then, a global pandemic status. The strategies adopted by many countries to reduce the impact of the pandemic were mainly based on social distancing…

Based on the study of virtual learning systems, motion learning theory, and instructional design theory, a virtual fitness trainer app named TRAINIME has been developed to be used as one of the tools to teach exercise for fitness education programs. This paper describes the design and development as well as the evaluation of the developed app. The…

Universities around Indonesia are currently adopting online lectures to keep the learning process running in the face of the COVID-19 outbreak. Online courses, thanks to the rapid advancement of ICT, allow students and lecturers to interact despite the stay-at-home policy. Because of its flexibility and modern lifestyle, this method is likely to…

The study investigates the effects of e-learning as an alternative form of curriculum dissemination for rural Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) college students. This study adopted connectivism theory, which enabled lecturers to reflect and adapt to how learning has changed and the accompanying implications of designing the…

This practice report shares the experiences of on-campus students enrolled in their second or third year of undergraduate business studies at Charles Sturt University, Australia as they moved to online study during the COVID19 shutdowns. It details both the barriers and enablers to successful study the students identified. Barriers included loss…

The purpose of this study was to investigate 69 college students' attitudes toward the Recap app as part of their online language learning process. The Recap app is a free language learning application that uses student-created videos to facilitate language practice and interaction among students. Using a 13-item attitude survey to measure…

The COVID-19 pandemic has led to significant changes around the world, including changes in education. Almost immediately after school closures were imposed in March 2020 and students in many cases had to take digital distance learning classes, educational researchers clearly pointed out that this could contribute to a worsening of existing social…

The usage of videos in undergraduate students' engineering education has gained importance in recent years. Videos, which are used as a supportive tool in traditional engineering education, have become a source of information in online learning environments. The aim of this study is to examine the effects of educational videos on engineering…

Sentiment evolution is a key component of interactions in blended learning. Although interactions have attracted considerable attention in online learning contexts, there is scant research on examining sentiment evolution over different interactions in blended learning environments. Thus, in this study, sentiment evolution at different interaction…
