In terms of originality, the findings lead to the key elements of the system architecture to develop MLCOM,…

This study aims to investigate the effect of course activities carried out using web 2.0 tools in the "Interaction of Light with Matter" unit in the Science Course on the academic achievements and self-directed learning levels of 7th-grade students. For this purpose, the model of the research was determined as a pretest-posttest control…

As online education continues to evolve and create new opportunities for educators to deliver quality instruction, universities are challenged with the range of learning management systems (LMSs) that can serve the educational needs of both universities and teachers. This quantitative study examined teaching English to speakers of other languages…

The purpose of this literature review was to synthesize relevant research concerning the blended learning and flipped lesson models, and their potential role in performance-based music classrooms.

In this contribution, I reflect on how multilingual pedagogies can be added to STEM and S.T.E.M. practices, in what could be called a "double-crossing": on the one hand, crossing linguistic boundaries and, on the other, crossing specific subject knowledge. Based on a content analysis of teachers' interviews referring to their pedagogical…

Today's technology reality is reminiscent of science fiction in many ways. In order to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, school buildings closed. When they reopened, many schools utilized videoconferencing, learning management systems, and other technology to provide virtual instruction; however, all students did not experience the same technology…

This study examined the effects of reflective practices (RP) on self-directed learning competencies (SDLC) as well as the relationship between technology-mediated collaborative learning (TMCL) as a reflective practice and SDLC in a preservice teachers' class. Regression analyses were conducted to examine the effects of RP on SDLC. In addition, a…

Training in chemistry is essential for undergraduate medical students; however, at the National University of Colombia, basic chemistry courses are associated with high fail rates and low academic performance with regard to first semester students, especially in vulnerable special admission populations. A longitudinal study was carried out via…
