Faculty development activities offered within post-secondary educational institutions tend to focus on developing skills instead of directly addressing faculty conceptual views and beliefs that may affect their successful adoption of instruction within the online environment. This qualitative multi-case study bridges a gap in the current…

Introduction: Inability to self-regulate learning is likely to be an indication of internet/mobile phone use. When students have low self-regulation, this may negatively predict problematic smartphone use. Additionally, problematic smartphone use could be a predictor of academic procrastination. The aim of this study was to investigate the…

For poetry as a stand-alone subject, there is very scant empirical evidence that exist which estimates the impact of constructivism on its learning and teaching in Africa. There are, however, a number of existing studies in this regard in the Western context. This paper, using an experimental approach, examines the impact of constructivism on…
