Background: Augmented reality (AR) emerges as a technology with considerable promise and substantial potential for pedagogical integration within language education contexts. However, there remains a scarcity of review studies exploring the best practices and principles for oral communication facilitation based on robust theoretical models or…

The aim of this work was to design and implement an effective hybridisation of two pedagogical models that would serve to overcome gender-related barriers to participation in games, based on a co-educational intervention and paying a special attention on the boys' influence for the girls' participation. First, we describe the process of creating…

This study aims to explore the literature on learning interventions that can enhance students' multiple representation skills and identify indicators for assessing multiple representation abilities in physics education. Following the PRISMA procedure, the research is a systematic literature review using qualitative content analysis techniques. The…

Research administrators (RA) at institutions of higher education (IHE) provide critical support to faculty throughout the lifecycle of research, which include developing research, applying to funding opportunities, managing awards through closeout, and maintaining compliance. Fulfilling these tasks requires well-developed RA processes and clear…

Interactive digital technologies are playing an increasingly important part in education for enhancing collaborative learning processes and improving engagement. Social annotation (SA) tools and collaborative platforms are an innovative way to involve students to give and take feedback, annotate, and brainstorm on complex topics in science,…

This study explores the adoption of online/blended learning approach in the delivery of animal welfare training among learners in animal health/science courses in Africa. Kenyan institutions approved to offer Animal Health training in 2020 by the Kenya Veterinary Board (18 institutions) were selected, in addition to select institutions in Gambia,…

This empirical study aimed to identify strategies for improving the effectiveness of hybrid learning within the Post Graduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) programme in accounting. The PGCE is offered through two modes, full-time and part-time, to accommodate the varying needs and circumstances of students. Full-time students are required to…

Design-based research (DBR) has proven to be a robust methodology for transforming educational practice through a systematic cycle of analysis, design, development, and real-world implementation. Its distinctive strength lies in fostering close collaboration between researchers and educators within authentic learning contexts, producing design…

The empirical evidence regarding the acceptance and use of hybrid education and online instructional technologies in mandatory educational contexts remains limited. Specifically, studies addressing instructors' acceptance and usage of these technologies in the context of hybrid education are even scarcer. This study aims to fill this gap by…

The CoI framework, widely recognized as a leading theoretical model for constructivist-based technology-enhanced learning, has attracted increasing attention from researchers. The abrupt shutdown caused by the pandemic has increased this interest by shifting traditional teaching to online instruction globally, even until now. Scholars in TESL/TEFL…

This article investigates the pedagogical and instructional design process of a hybrid course in preservice teacher education. Guided by the Community of Inquiry (COI) framework, the course design aimed to foster social, cognitive, and teaching presence in a hybrid learning environment. A narrative self-study approach was employed to reflect on…

Recent developments have led institutions into a transition towards more flexible educational models, such as synchronous hybrid education, i.e., having both on-site and remote students at the same time or multi-access education also providing asynchronous access. It is assumed that these new models can enhance accessibility for learners with…

Purpose: This study explores the relationship between digital citizenship and religious moderation in shaping students' character at "Sekolah Menengah Atas Negeri" 2 (SMAN 2/Public Senior High School 2) Bandung Indonesia (BI), a school employing blended and online learning. Design/methodology/approach: Using a descriptive qualitative…

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to empirically test whether or not an online business simulation game (OBSG) can enhance key soft skills and self-perceived employability. Design/methodology/approach: This research employed a blended learning approach to syllabus delivery. Five soft skills and self-perceived employability were measured before…

This article uses digital traces to help identify students' online learning strategies by making a clear distinction between the descriptive features (the proportional distribution of students' different online learning actions) and quantitative aspects (the total number of the online learning sessions), a distinction that has not been properly…
