This study aimed to evaluate Promoting Reciprocal Relationships with Flexibility, Coaching, and Teaching (PRRFCT Match), a parent-mediated naturalistic developmental behavioral intervention package. An expansion from an earlier pilot study (see Kunze et al., 2021), PRRFCT Match incorporates virtual coaching between a novice coach and parent to…

In this paper, we report on a study involving third-year undergraduate mathematics students who were taking a course in Mathematics Education. The participants, prospective teachers, discussed typical misconceptions in mathematics. They first worked in Moodle environment communicating in small groups and with the whole class using Quick Chat…

The scalability and accessibility of quality professional development (PD) is an ongoing concern in the teacher education community, yet little research has been conducted on potential solutions. We aimed to address this gap by developing an interactive, virtual PD program that uses intelligent tutoring systems and provides instant feedback to…

The Online Self-Regulated Learning Questionnaire (OSLQ) is a widely used self-report instrument for assessing student self-regulated learning (SRL). Despite its prevalence, the dimensionality of the OSLQ is often unclear across different populations, and its item-level characteristics remain underexplored. This study investigates the psychometric…

This conceptual study explores and proposes strategies for enhancing security and academic integrity within the Open and Distance e-learning (ODeL) context, adhering to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) protocols. As higher education continues to evolve, the reliance on online assessments has become more…

Cognitive engagement is an essential component in student learning. With the increase of more asynchronous virtual educational tools in classrooms, there is a need to understand how students are engaging with classroom content in these formats. Several studies have examined student and teacher perceptions of cognitive engagement in virtual…

Although e-learning is considered one of the leading teaching methods in higher education, both learners and instructors face significant challenges owing to reduced social interaction compared with traditional classroom learning. In this study, we explore the leveraging of recent developments in generative artificial intelligence (AI) and create…

Although grit has been an important individual factor contributing to learning, studies are limited regarding second/foreign language (L2) specific grit. Additionally, most approached it without disentangling the differential role of its two dimensions, and the context was restricted in traditional face-to-face language learning. It remains…

This study advances an e-learning adoption model by exploring the link between Performance Expectancy (PE) and Behavioural Intention (BI) to adopt e-learning among undergraduate students in Kenya's public universities. Using the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT), data were collected from a sample of 388 respondents through…

This study examined the ecological challenges teachers faced in integrating Informal Digital Learning of English (IDLE) among 159 in-service Hong Kong EFL teachers from 2019 to 2024. Analysis of 470 entries revealed that 50% of the challenges stem from "exo-system factors" (e.g., heavy workloads), 23% were from "macro-system…

This study examined instructional strategies and assessment methods used in online undergraduate and graduate courses, with a focus on student-reported preferences and perceptions of effectiveness. The research aimed to identify commonly used instructional approaches, explore how students experience and evaluate these methods, and determine which…

This study examined the effectiveness of online English learning among college students by integrating data from multiple learning behavior sources. The research revealed a bidirectional regulatory relationship between device environment and cognitive strategies, clarified the critical threshold for the regulation of metacognitive strategies, and…

Discussion has become a crucial method of interactive learning in online collaborative environments. This study aims to identify the impact of different task motivation compositions and learning scaffolding on attention, learning performance, and behavioral patterns. The 90 Chinese undergraduate and graduate students (M[subscript age]=20.38,…

Adaptive number knowledge represents the understanding and use of numerical characteristics and relations. However, there is a lack of knowledge about the role of adaptive number knowledge in solving problems that require the recognition of patterns. Therefore, we studied 61 sixth grade students' adaptive number knowledge and its connections to…
