The purpose of this study is to investigate the lived experiences of three students who have received Structured Literacy instruction in a Dyslexia Lab while delivered through remote learning or face-to-face. It addresses the following question: In a Dyslexia Lab where teachers have used Structured Literacy in both virtual and face-to-face…

Since Bruner's introduction of discovery learning in the 1960s, there has been an ongoing and intensive debate on the value of inductive teaching methods (e.g., problem-solving followed by instruction, such as in problem-based learning and productive failure) compared to deductive teaching methods (instruction followed by problem-solving, such as…

Learning analytics (LA) is considered a promising field of study as it's helping to improve learning and the context in which it occurs. A learner's performance can be defined as how well students are learning in terms of knowledge and skills development and can be analyzed based on students' outcomes and engagement in the course. We have…

This study aims to compare the views of science teachers on face-to-face and online STEM-based activities. The study was carried out with phenomenology; one of the qualitative research methods. Five science teachers (three female, two male) participated in the study. Data were collected with a structured interview form. Since they were in the…

In the 21st century, preparing university students for real work and lifelong learning requires instructors to serve as facilitators of learning rather than as providers of information. Instruction needs to be learner-centered, active, enjoyable, and engaging. As one form of active learning strategy, cooperative learning (e.g. group assignment)…

COVID-19 has emphasized the importance of holistic education with fostering stu- dents' multiple intelligences through effective social and emotional learning (SEL). Understanding students' SEL not only supports students' learning performance, it's also beneficial to inform teachers to provide more adequate social-communicative, metacognitive, and…

This paper explores the Centre for Insurance, Risk and Data Analytics Studies (CIRDAS) as a case study of online adult education which offers flexible upskilling and reskilling opportunities to employees across the Irish insurance sector. It explores how CIRDAS's agile programme development enabled flexible entry, exit and progression routes for…

Second-order covariation is a form of mathematical reasoning that needs to be characterized both concerning students' cognitive processes and the design of tasks that promote it. This contribution aims to shed light on these two issues by comparing data related to the same learning experiment performed in two different learning environments:…

Anatomy laboratories can provide rich opportunities for outreach to K-12 and college students interested in pursuing careers in health, medicine, or science. At the University of Missouri, the Department of Pathology and Anatomical Sciences has designed flexible, one-hour interactive sessions that typically cover basic anatomical concepts using…

This explanatory mixed methods study investigated the role digital literacies play in the collaborative online learning of early childhood educators (ECEs). Through reporting quantitative survey and qualitative interview data, study results describe the attitudes and skills that contribute to ECEs' abilities to fluently use different modes of…

Responding to gaps in the executive coaching literature, this study's purpose was to identify coaching practices for facilitating growth in leaders' developmental capacity to help them more successfully navigate the demands of their increasingly complex contexts. Through the lenses of transformative learning (Mezirow, 1978, 1991, 2000) and…

Learning has a temporal characteristic in nature, which means that it occurs over the passage of time. The research on the temporal aspects of learning faces several challenges, one of which is utilizing appropriate analytical techniques to exploit the temporal data. There is no coherent guide to selecting certain temporal techniques to lead to…

Effective analysis and demonstration of these data features is of great significance for the optimization of interactive learning environment and learning behavior. Therefore, we take the big data set of learning behavior generated by an online interactive learning environment as the research object, define the features of learning behavior, and…

What makes impactful online professional development for rural teachers learning creativity and arts integration? In this paper, we describe the results of a mixed method-study that tested a new hybrid online and in-person teacher training experience with K-12 teachers in the Northwestern region of the United States of America in 2019-2020. The…

The purpose of this study was to gather expert instructional designers' descriptions of their decision-making processes and procedures while designing and developing formative game-based activities for online courses in workplace environments. The question addressed by the study is "How do instructional designers describe their…
