Massive open online courses (MOOCs) have emerged as an affordable way to distribute knowledge and democratize education. The examination of online courses calls for theoretical models and instruments that contemplate its particularities. The community of inquiry (CoI) framework has been used in several studies to analyze the effectiveness of…

The aim of this study is to determine the level of compliance of the educational digital game designs developed by the form teachers for teaching mathematics with the determined criteria and to analyze the opinions of the classroom teachers on the educational digital game design process. Case study, one of the qualitative research designs, was…

Purpose: Overall quantitative research aims to observe certain fundamental principles of logic and scientific frame of reasoning. There continues to be challenges on how quantitative research is conducted in the field of information systems. Design/methodology/approach: Structured equation modelling (SEM) research identifies concerns about the…

The aim of the present study is to conduct a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) of the Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale (RSES) as part of the study of affective variables using a sample of English as a foreign language (EFL) university students in Morocco.

The Higher-Order Thinking Skill Test Instrument on Quadratic Equations (HOTS-QE) was developed to measure the level of HOTS on the topic of quadratic equations among secondary school students. The HOTS-QE instrument consists of 17 structured subjective items divided into two smaller questions according to the three levels of HOTS, namely applying,…

This study aims to (1) produce an instrument for measuring college student entrepreneurial skills; (2) describe the quality of the measurement instrument for college students' entrepreneurial skills; (3) describe the practicality of the measurement instrument for college students' entrepreneurial skills. The method used in this study is the…

This study aims to analyze the reliability generalization of the computational thinking scale. There are five dimensions of computational thinking: creativity, algorithmic thinking, cooperativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving. A Bonett transformation was used to standardize the reliability coefficient of Cronbach's alpha. A…

This paper reports how I addressed the issue of extensive missing values in my PhD study, "Digital Competencies of High School Mathematics Teachers". I collected data using an online survey. Several methods exist to address the issue of missing values. I utilised multiple imputation (MI) as it provides more accurate results. The mean…

One of the questionnaires that will be used to evaluate social learning environments such as Facebook is the Online Social Learning Environment Instrument (OSLEI). The aim of this study was to evaluate the OSLEI using alternative method of analysis via Rasch model toward 49 undergraduate students in Malaysia. To date, no study has evaluated the…

This study aimed to perform a scale adaptation to determine students' perceptions of a classroom learning environment. The sample of the study consisted of 337 students for exploratory factor analysis and 1,639 students for confirmatory factor analysis. The scale known as My Class Activity adapted in this study was developed by Gentry and Gable…

Background: Body experience is an important facet of psychosocial functioning and health. However, to date no test exists to measure body experience in adults with mild intellectual disability and borderline intellectual functioning (MID-BIF). We therefore adapted the Body Experience Questionnaire (BEQ) to this group, resulting in the BEQ-mb, and…
