Differentiated instruction has emerged as a research-based approach to teaching that meets the diverse needs of students based upon learner readiness, interests, and learning profile, grounded in the socio-cultural, multiple intelligences, and brain-based learning theories. The purpose of this basic qualitative inquiry was to explore teachers'…

Hyflex describes a course format that combines both online and in-person elements, allowing students the flexibility to attend class in person, participate remotely in real-time (synchronously), or complete all coursework at their own pace (asynchronously). This study was conducted to explore student and instructor experiences with Hyflex…

The Learning Through Play (LTP) at School Research Study Ukraine was a four-year intervention study funded by the LEGO Foundation and implemented by the Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER) and the Ukrainian Educational Research Association (UERA). The intervention was a two-year professional learning program that blended online, and…

Blended Learning (BL) is often used as a "catch-all" term describing the modern educational environment, which centers on using technology to integrate traditional face-to-face (F2F) and online paradigms in higher education for over fifty years. HyFlex is considered a subset of BL since it incorporates different modalities to support F2F…

In this article, I describe and explore Design Domain, a large-cohort course for which I am academic coordinator and which is enacted across six design programmes at the Glasgow School of Art (GSA). I unpack Design Domain's context and intentionality as a 'created space', where student learners are exposed to different ways of thinking, making and…

Having developed and piloted a professional development blended learning course for teachers of home economics with the purpose of promoting a sustainable mindset in their students, we used the written learning journals by the teachers during the 15-week course to detect various aspects of a sustainable mindset, which could be attributed to the…

In the last few years, several works have emerged focusing on the cultural change that has to do with the simultaneous and sequential coexistence between different media. This is what is being called transmedia, and it is related to the new concepts of media convergence and participatory culture. All this new mediatic and cultural movement, of…

Students should have a strong conceptual understanding of the connection between force and acceleration before they start working with applications and problem solving. This has been discussed in the literature. During these days of flipped classroom instruction, an at-home activity could be especially valuable. I will describe an experiment with…

Classroom space limitations and increasing student enrollments push universities to the development of alternative course delivery models. The authors describe how a high-enrollment, general elective course was converted into a HyFlex model. A HyFlex course provides flexible participation, allowing students the choice of attending face-to-face…

The purpose of this article is to provide information from a research study that looked at the (re)imagining of a learning technologies course, "Integrating Technology with Teaching (ITT)." The course was (re)imagined to meet the needs of students who will be preservice and future teachers. Course design for the (re)imagined course was…

Background/purpose: This research aimed to evaluate the impact of integrating the WSQ-based flipped learning method with cooperative learning on speaking performance among English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners. Addressing the challenges EFL learners face in oral proficiency, the study sought to determine whether this innovative pedagogical…

Data show that the university student population is increasingly more diverse than in the past. Certainly, the conventional college student profile has evolved with approximately three out of every four students now falling into groups previously deemed nontraditional, including adult learners and first-generation students and students who…

This study examines the use of evidentials in the 21 Independent Study (IS) manuscripts of EFL undergraduates across three learning contexts: onsite, online, and hybrid. The analysis reveals significant shifts in the use of evidentials, particularly during the online and hybrid phases, reflecting how these contexts influence academic writing…

Improving academic performance and achievement requires educational systems to adopt inclusive learning practices that recognize and accommodate the diverse needs of all students. Inclusive education emphasizes equitable access to learning opportunities, tailored instructional methods, and supportive environments that value each learner's…

The rapid shift to online teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic introduced both challenges and opportunities for effective classroom management. This review explores 20 empirical studies published between 2021 and 2025, examining how educators have adapted to the virtual learning environment. The findings highlight key strategies that contribute…
