Flipped learning is considered an increasingly common strategy along with some drawbacks. Gamification has the significant potential to deal with the drawbacks. This study presents a systematic literature review on the use of gamification in flipped learning research. To demonstrate its effectiveness clearly, the only empirical research was…

Aim/Purpose: This study aimed at exploring students' online-learning exposures involving their readiness and motivation to learn English using synchronous video conferences, as well as investigating the possible relationship between the readiness and motivation. To fulfill these objectives, three research questions were formed: (1) What is…

This study was carried on for the purpose of comparing EFL learners' reading comprehension skill before and after the execution of timing different types of pre-reading activities. To do so, 54 high intermediate EFL learners who were within the age range of 15-24 were asked to participate in the study. A quasi-experimental design was adopted and…

This paper explores the redesign of a course in "Digital Storytelling" that integrates metaliteracy to advance Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL). Students from the United States and Prague, Czech Republic are active participants in this fully online global course as they learn to produce digital stories. The metaliteracy…

This study sought to understand the benefits of using experiential learning methods (such as outdoor activities) for executive leader development from the perspective of senior corporate, government, and nonprofit leaders. Increasingly, executive development programs are embracing "learning by doing" by incorporating experiential…

Problem-Based Learning (PBL) is an effective instructional methodology used in higher learning. The purpose of this qualitative descriptive study was to explore what undergraduate engineering students perceive as barriers to the implementation of PBL in engineering courses at higher learning institutions in the Southwest United States. This…

The purpose of this explorative field study using elements of case study design was to understand how DIY (Do It Yourself) fashion designers learn to engage in entrepreneurship. DIY fashion designers in this study refers to designers who personally design and make each garment without relying on manufacturers. These fashion designers all have…

This study investigated how metacognitive regulation (MR), especially its forms and foci, was manifested in less and more successful outcome groups' collaborative science learning in diverse learning contexts. Whilst previous research has shown that different forms and foci of MR exist in collaborative learning, their role in groups' learning…

The Buck Institute for Education defines Project-Based Learning as, "a teaching method in which students gain knowledge and skills by working for an extended period of time to investigate and respond to an authentic, engaging, and complex question, problem, or challenge." (What is PBL, 2020). The idea behind this teaching technique is to…

In a context where learning mediated by technology has gained prominence in higher education, learning analytics has become a powerful tool to collect and analyse data with the aim of improving students' learning. However, learning analytics is part of a young community and its developments deserve further exploration. Some critical stances claim…

Using hidden Markov models (HMM), the current study looked at how learners' metacognitive monitoring is related to their physiological reactivity in the context of collaborative learning. The participants (N = 12, age 16-17 years, three females and nine males) in the study were high school students enrolled in an advanced physics course. The…

Purpose: This paper compares the research traditions of organizational translation studies and adaptation studies. The purpose of this paper is to identify differences and similarities in how these traditions approach the study of change in adopted constructs, and by doing so, provide a better understanding of each and how they can inform research…

Both "Bildung" and transformative learning theory focus on the transformative nature of education. Even though they have been developed in different continents and fairly independently of each other, they intersect, and at face value, they might appear to be very similar to each other. Both notions, though are perceived differently by…

We examine the influence of collaborative learning on need for cognition among students from 17 institutions over four years of college. Net of a wide battery of potential confounding influences including precollege academic ability, race, and a pretest of the outcome measure, for example, we find collaborative learning is associated with gains in…

There has been an increased emphasis for professionals within the field of student affairs to focus on programming that will engage and help support increasingly diverse student populations on (Odag, Wallin, & Kedzior, 2016). Bowman (2012) writes: "Many entering college students have had limited opportunities for meaningful interactions…
