Higher Education has serious challenges regarding academic online teaching-learning-evaluation methods and tools. This study examined 980 students from diverse disciplines about their social-emotional-psychological (SEP) perceptions. We also examined the presence and desirability of 14 TLE (teaching-learning-evaluation) tools in the online…

This study advances the emerging research on shared metacognition through the lens of the community of inquiry framework. It seeks components and utterances of the community of inquiry and shared metacognition in online collaborative learning environments to bring an instructional design model to the fore. A three-cycle design-based research…

This study aims to identify the mediating effect of collaborative learning on the relationship between Learning Management System (LMS) usage and academic performance among undergraduate students in a public university through the constructivism theory. The study employed a purposive sampling survey method, and 381 valid respondents were…

Sequence learning is fundamental to a wide range of cognitive functions. Explaining how sequences--and the relations between the elements they comprise--are learned is a fundamental challenge to cognitive science. However, although hundreds of articles addressing this question are published each year, the actual learning mechanisms involved in the…

Educators can help adult learners experience identity transformation and initiate lifelong learning by designing curriculum centered upon transformative learning objectives (TLOs) and experiential learning competencies (ELCs). TLOs point learners to the specific ways of thinking, feeling, and being in the world to which a course or other learning…

Purpose: This study aims to explore the mediating role of the motivation for learning in knowledge acquisition and knowledge transfer in students of higher education programs in business and management. Design/methodology/approach: Quantitative correlational design. Data was collected from a sample of 366 students studying and working in the…

This text critically examines traditional methodologies for teaching grammar in the context of Portuguese as a Foreign Language (PFL). It proposes an alternative, eclectic approach, which can be used in any foreign language. Drawing on evidence from research and pedagogical practices, it highlights areas for improvement in current approaches, such…

The article presents a blended dialogic socio-constructivist pedagogy for language learning, emphasizing the importance of both individual and social aspects of learning. It argues that technology alone does not transform pedagogy; rather, it is the approach to technology that matters. The pedagogy combines personal freedom for reflection and…

This study investigated the effects of presenting domain information (basic information about the domain) either together with or instead of offering exploratory practice (an exploratory opportunity in a simulation-based representation of the learning domain) prior to inquiry learning for facilitating students' hypothesis generation and subsequent…

Lifelong learning is emerging as a key priority for promoting equity and sustainability in societies. Self-regulated learning (SRL) is a fundamental requirement for achieving successful lifelong learning, and digitization is increasingly influential in this regard. This mixed-methods study explores the degree to which adaptive learning technology…

Blended learning (BL) combines traditional classroom activities with online learning resources, enabling students to obtain higher academic performance through well-defined interactive learning strategies. However, lacking the capacity to self-regulate their learning, many students might fail to comprehensively study the learning materials after…

This study examined high school journalism educators' perspectives on field trips to attend workshops and conferences sponsored by college and university journalism programs. In-depth interviews were conducted with 29 educators from across the United States, representing a broad range of scholastic journalism programs, schools, and professional…

Background: The healthcare and educational sectors in Africa are confronted with distinct challenges, such as an increasing population, a lack of adequately trained medical personnel, and insufficient educational resources. In this context, current medical education approaches may not be adequately preparing graduates to address these complex…

This paper describes an in-class activity to introduce random assignment, paired data, and learning effect. The activity requires minimal materials, can be completed in a single class period, and is suitable for those using technology to conduct data exploration but can also be adapted for use in a technology-free classroom. The activity consists…

Observational learning enables us to make decisions by watching others' behaviors. The quality of such learning depends on the abilities of those we observe, but also on our beliefs about those abilities. We have previously demonstrated that observers learned better from demonstrators described as high vs. low in ability, regardless of their…
