Institutions of higher education are implementing Blended Learning (BL) approaches to supplement traditional courses in enhancing students' learning experiences. However, only fewer studies have examined BL acceptance based on the determinants that influence students' perception towards BL integration in improving learning performance.…

Children are socialized into society through education, which imparts cultural values and customs and provides them with the tools necessary to contribute positively to society. In this way, education promotes economic expansion and increases public awareness of regional and global issues. To meet the requirements and expectations of…

Self-explanation prompts in example-based learning are usually directed backwards: Learners are required to self-explain problem-solving steps just presented ("retrospective" prompts). However, it might also help to self-explain upcoming steps ("anticipatory" prompts). The effects of the prompt type may differ for learners with…

In educational gerontology, non-formal education emerges as a possibility for lifelong learning because it is more flexible and less bureaucratic than formal education. In this context, agile culture offers a potential strategy to enhance non-formal education. While there are four manifestos for agile culture in education, their application in…

Purpose: This study aims to increase the understanding of the starting points and presuppositions of organizational learning (OL) processes in a hospital's surgical department based on the existing theory of OL and to make visible the practical possibilities of the theory in this context. Design/methodology/approach: The study was conducted as a…

How can a new generation of students be equipped to take up positions of responsibility in a dynamic global environment, serving as leaders and citizens who will further the good of societies around the world? As the institutions responsible for educating the next generation of citizens and leaders at a formative time in their intellectual and…

COVID-19 had a significant impact on adolescents. Local governments mandated schools to cancel in-person schooling for the first time in history due to the heightened exposure to the coronavirus. The shift to virtual learning during the COVID-19 pandemic removed students from the supportive academic and social environment of the physical school…

The field of adult learning theory, or how adults learn, has exploded in recent years yielding increased knowledge and awareness of how adults learn. While preachers do have a wide variety of ages in their congregations, most of the people they preach to are adults. This dissertation looks at preaching and adult learning theory and what the…

This study is the first to explore microdevelopment in sociolinguistic evaluative judgments of standard German and Austro-Bavarian dialect by adult second language learners of German by using dense time serial measurements. Intensive longitudinal data (10 observations per participant) were collected from four learners at approximately weekly…

This study explored and analyzed student perceptions of feedback for deeper learning in an online graduate program at a regionally accredited institution in the southeastern United States. Forty-one graduate students participated in an online survey to examine students' preferences for feedback, the most helpful types of feedback, and if feedback…

Although the COVID-19 pandemic required schools and districts to quickly pivot to a remote and hybrid learning system of education, some stakeholders benefited in this new model of learning. Through this project, R1CC supported two district teams in self-identifying remote and hybrid learning strategies and integrating those strategies more…

This complex article has six subsections. Following a brief introduction, one team of three co-authors and three single authors present compact statements of their distinctive individual research perspectives on second language acquisition and teaching (SLA/T): Atkinson, Mejía-Laguna, and Ribeiro offer a sociocognitive perspective; Cappellini…

This research aimed to explore the dimensions and implications of the early use and integration of metaverses in public high schools in the region of the Altos de Chiapas, Mexico, through a sequential mixed methods approach. Initially, a standardized survey was administered to a stratified probabilistic sample of 1402 students from various schools…

Participation rate in adult and continuing education (ACE) is one of the multiple indicators of distributive justice. Nonetheless, the literature of recent decades has turned it into a cardinal principle and value. Expansive paradigm that envisages the progressive and generalised development of participation rate in ACE is examined in this…

Cross-dimensional interference between spatial and temporal processing provides valuable insights into the neuronal representation of space and time. Previous research has frequently found asymmetric interference patterns, with temporal judgments being more affected by spatial information than vice versa. However, this asymmetry has been…
