The cross-sectional survey design was carried out by taking 2260 students from school to tertiary levels in Nepal during the COVID-19 pandemic. T-test, ANOVA, and hierarchical…

Digital education has recently become a mainstream education model. Despite digital education's increasing popularity, there remain issues when it comes to teacher-student interactions in digital space, which have made it impossible for this model to achieve the same teaching quality as traditional in-person education. Compared with other academic…

Massive open online courses (MOOCs) could have been leveraged to bridge the education accessibility inequality gap in many developing countries, however many of the MOOCs platforms are developed to work in areas with good internet connections and high bandwidth leaving many rural areas excluded. The goal of this study was to develop a MOOCs model…

This paper describes the effects of a pairing method based on digital textbook logs and learners' artifacts in conceptual modeling exercises. The authors developed a digital textbook system called Smart E-Textbook Application (SEA) and a conceptual modeling tool called KIfU 3.0 to collect conceptual modeling activity logs in exercises. This study…

This paper investigates undergraduate students' perceptions and acceptance of e-learning systems at Jordanian universities. The framework of this study is guided by the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) and DeLone and McLean Information System Success Model. The online questionnaire is used to collect data from 411…

In the wake of coronavirus pandemic, social distancing became a mandate that led to the transition from traditional classroom-based lectures to computer-based learning. This paper extensively deals with the ranking of the challenges faced by instructors and students. Primary data from 624 participants (399 students and 225 instructors) is…

Online proctoring generally refers to the practice of proctors monitoring an exam over the internet, usually through a webcam. This technology has gained relevance during the current COVID-19 pandemic, given that the social distance owing to health reasons has consequently led to the switching of all learning and assessment activities to online…

Due to the emergency educational consequences of the COVID-19 epidemic, it is necessary to find an effective and alternative way of learning. Moreover, during this epidemic, the Chinese Ministry of Education announced the "Disrupted Classes, Undisrupted Learning" initiative, offering flexible online learning. With the aim of facilitating…

Student satisfaction has become a crucial measure in massive open online course (MOOC) learning experience. Students with high satisfaction not only bring the long-term benefits to higher education, but also help to sustain MOOCs as a source of revenue. Thus, this study is aimed to examine the contributing factors of sustainability implementation…

The breakout of the coronavirus disease has brought about a seismic shift in the daily lives of people worldwide. Educational institutions have been temporarily closed, and different types of lockdowns and social distancing approaches have been applied in countries around the world to delay the spread of the disease. This study investigates the…

Many educational institutions have adopted e-learning methods during the COVID-19 pandemic to maintain school teaching activities. However,systematic research on e-learning effectiveness in such a crisis is quite insufficient. This study aims to explore the impact of e-learning quality on students' satisfaction during the pandemic in regard to…

This paper proposes an online multi-user real-time co-reading (OMURCOR) system to promote the performance of co-reading with collaborative learning. The OMURCOR system utilizes WebSocket to perform synchronization controls on co-reading to allow teachers and students to watch streaming videos together with less delay. Moreover, teachers utilize…

The demand for higher education keeps on increasing. The invention of information technology and e-learning have, to a large extent, solved the problem of shortage of skilled and qualified teachers. But there is no guarantee that this will ensure the high quality of learning. In spite of large number of students, though the delivery of learning…

The results of PISA 2015 indicate that Taiwanese students have excellent mathematical and scientific knowledge but are weak in applying such knowledge and in conducting practical experiments in the laboratory. To support students conducting practical experiments in physics laboratories, a real-time data logging system and an online tool for…

This work proposes a dropout prediction approach that is able to self-adjust their outcomes at any moment of a degree program timeline. To that end, a rule-based classification technique was used to identify courses, grade thresholds and other attributes that have a high influence on the dropout behavior. This approach, which is generic so that it…
