This article reports on a study about how massive open online course (MOOC)-based blended learning designs can be visually represented to facilitate their comprehension and sharing. We carried out an iterative co-creation process with different stakeholders to conceptualise a visual learning design representation model within the context of…

Technology unequivocally has the potential to influence every aspect of our lives as it is intimately involved in every part of daily routines. The role of technology, specifically media, influences learning, according to Suzie Ehmann, is a provocative topic. Incongruous views of media's impact on learning range from those that view educational…

Classroom assessment techniques (CATs) provide instructors with the opportunity to get feedback about what students are learning, where they need help, and provide instructors with an important tool to tailor course design and student learning.

Understanding exponential growth is a fundamental aspect of developing critical numeracy skills; however, typically, exponential growth is introduced in curricular documents to secondary students. Moreover, such introductions tend to be in the context of formal mathematical modeling, divorced from a sense of quantity. The authors argue that, given…

This article describes an experience of collaborative work between scientists and preschool teachers in the format of a scientific congress of preschoolers in Chile. The participating preschool teachers evaluated the initiative positively based on: (1) it stimulates the preschool teachers to develop science teaching projects, (2) it makes visible…

This paper explores current understanding of microlearning as an effective model for professional development. From a theoretical perspective, the authors explore the rationale for microlearning by considering literature on competency-based education (CBE) and microcredentialing. Existing research specifically focused on microlearning is then…

Researchers in the field of instructional design and educational technology journals usually focus on the practice of instructional design; however, the management and leadership of instructional design has typically received little emphasis. Recent studies have investigated the competencies associated with effective leadership and management of…

The development of geocapabilities has been a concern in geographical education, and the application of geospatial technologies such as geographical information systems (GIS) has been popularized in both geography and non-geography courses. However, there are still gaps in how GIS courses could be designed to promote students' geocapabilities. In…

This article builds on previous research on diversity statements, adding insights to the resource sharing among educational developers who provide guidance in crafting such statements. In response to the existing knowledge gap about what transpires after submitting diversity statements to hiring committees, we conducted a survey involving 299…

Pragmatic identity has received much attention in pragmatic studies. However, few studies have examined teacher's pragmatic identity construction in the "shuoke" context. "Shuoke" is a teaching activity in which a teacher explains the teaching design and process to colleagues or experts for feedbacks. To address this research…

Current approaches to assessing digital competence in education may be too broad to support teachers in developing their online learning designs in specific subjects. During the pandemic, studies have identified that the development of teaching practices (and subsequently their learning designs) has taken a leap. However, because digital cultures…

The integration of web-based discussion tools in education has expanded rapidly, yet their pedagogical use remains largely unstructured, often resulting in fragmented discussions and limited learners' engagement. This gap reflects the absence of empirically grounded instructional models that align digital discourse with principles of collaborative…

Although mobile technologies are commonly used to support language learning, there is a lack of research to comprehensively determine the acceptance, readiness, affordances, and challenges in this area. To address this gap, this systematic literature review selected 49 articles indexed in the Scopus database between 2013 and 2022. This study found…

This study examines the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) tools with Nation's Four Strands Framework in the design of pre-class learning modules for English as a Foreign Language (EFL) flipped classrooms. Focusing on conversational skills development--a domain requiring balanced attention to meaning-focused input/output, language-focused…

This book explores how artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping higher education through practical, real-world strategies and grounded research. It begins with accessible introductions to key concepts--such as generative AI, machine learning, and natural language processing--before progressing to theoretical frameworks and empirical studies of…
