Whether the use of lecture capture technology helps improve student performance is a contested area of research. In most cases, the answer relies on the degree to which online recordings supplement or substitute for live or live-streamed lecture delivery. We present a parameter, the technical rate of substitution, which captures this information…

Given that the educational sector was particularly hard hit in most countries around the world during the COVID-19 pandemic, the study employs an extended UTAUT2 to investigate student use and satisfaction with e-learning in a developing country setting. We employed partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) on 616 data…

For many years, there has been a quest to discover the best teaching and learning methods in order to strengthen the classroom and the mind. Researchers now know more than ever before about the brain's impact on learning, historical triggers that lead to deep learning, and how to scale education with technology. Yet much of what is known is…

This work explores how population-based engagement prediction can address cold-start at scale in large learning resource collections. The paper introduces: (1) VLE, a novel dataset that consists of content and video based features extracted from publicly available scientific video lectures coupled with implicit and explicit signals related to…

Machine learning is a powerful method for predicting the outcomes of interactions with educational software, such as the grade a student is likely to receive. However, a predicted outcome alone provides little insight regarding how a student's experience should be personalized based on that outcome. In this paper, we explore a generalizable…

Limited research examines writing tutors' self-efficacy, or how tutors believe "in their abilities to produce given attainments" (Bandura, 2006, p. 307). This qualitative constant comparative study explored self-efficacy's impact on tutoring strategies writing tutors use in recorded digital tutoring conferences with community college…

Personalized learning stems from the idea that students benefit from instructional material tailored to their needs.

The students following Engineering disciplines should acquire a conceptual understanding of the concepts and the processors and attitudes. There are two recognizable learning environments for students: classroom and laboratory environments. With the COVID-19 Pandemic, both environments merged to online environments, impacting students' processes…

The focus of this study centered around superintendent's responses to the emergency remote learning period caused by the COVID-19 global pandemic. Forms of remote learning have been around since the 1700s, albeit, in many different forms. Technological advances of the 21st Century have significantly increased the ability of schools to provide…

Online educational products have consistently increased in availability since the advent of the internet and the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020-2022. Consistent standards and ways to measure the quality of online products have not emerged with the same speed, and there are few comprehensive ways to measure the quality of education that is provided in…

The purpose of this study was to explore the unique lived experiences of four middle school science teachers from North Carolina and South Carolina during and following the transition from in-person to online instruction due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Four predominant themes were identified from individual, semi-structured interviews of the…

The United States holds a commanding 22% of the market share of international students, more than double that of the second leading country (United Kingdom). The number of international students studying at U.S. institutions has had a steady incline for decades and these students now make up approximately 5% of all higher education students in the…

The COVID pandemic caused changes in education of which we may never know or understand all its repercussions to the public education system. One group of vulnerable students, newcomers from Guatemala and Honduras with limited or interrupted formal education (SLIFE), were negatively affected. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, one SLIFE program sent…
