This study applies the Technology Acceptance Model to examine user acceptance of emerging technologies - specifically LINE and Google Translate- -for language learning. A multimodal interactive teaching program, combining cooperative learning and problem-based learning, was implemented at a...

The COVID-19 pandemic has led colleges and universities to augment their online offerings. For faculty and students, this brings concerns about academic integrity and performance. Findings of prior research conflict as to the prevalence of cheating and differences in student performance online...

This study explores the preference for remote work by sending thousands of randomized messages to tutors advertising on an online platform across Greece. The messages requested either in-person or online tutoring. Requests for online lessons were roughly 50 percent more likely to receive a...

Campus closures due to COVID19 created uneven student-level exposures to the challenges of home-based virtual learning. Using university administrative data, and exogenous class-level differences in pre-pandemic on-campus housing assignments for parallel trend validation, this paper unpacks...

(1) Background and objectives: Global crises such as climate change, pandemics, and resource depletion present unprecedented challenges that require coordinated and innovative responses. This study advocates for a bottom-up strategy by proposing and developing tools that empower individuals and...

Education, notably higher education, faced a significant challenge during the last period. Our data exploratory study aims to provide insights into the key factors that define students' Distance Learning (DL) in the current period. Based on the main findings, we justify our bold proposition for...

Purpose - We aimed to identify factors that influence student engagement in distance learning. Design/methodology/approach - The research involved a group of 671 students from economic and technical higher education institutions in Poland. We collected the data with the CAWI technique and an...

We used data collected during the COVID-19 pandemic to examine how Italian upper secondary schools organized their activities for remote learning (RL). We conducted a three-level survey, administering questionnaires to each institution's students (11th and 13th graders, 11,154 students), 3,905...

To reduce cheating in written tests and exams, assessors often randomly vary the order of questions across students. However, little is known about the potential unintended side effects of question order. This paper examines whether randomizing students to start with an easier or harder question...

This study identifies the academic effects of online learning mandates on high-school students separately from the overall effect of the pandemic. We exploit exogenous variation in 2020/2021 Italian schooling mandates that imposed online learning on upper secondary school students while...

Blended learning, a pedagogical approach that uses a mix of different physical environments as well as digital and non-digital learning tools, has emerged as a cornerstone of modern education. In particular, integrating traditional face-to-face teaching with technology-mediated instruction has...

Rapidly changing skills requirements as a result of the digital and green transitions require more support for adults to update their skills throughout their working life. Furthermore, demographic ageing makes it essential for adults to continue skills developments to avoid skills shortages. All...

Blended learning, a pedagogical approach that uses a mix of different physical environments as well as digital and non-digital learning tools, has emerged as a cornerstone of modern education. In particular, integrating traditional face-to-face teaching with technology-mediated instruction has...

This paper uses value-added models and panel data from a comprehensive set of highstakes secondary school exams to assess determinants of student performance during the coronavirus pandemic in Bhutan. Gender gaps, urban-rural gaps, and socioeconomic gaps do not appear to have widened...

This paper examines the impact of substituting regular classroom programmes with online classes on students' academic performance. We compared the change in the delivery mechanism of preparatory courses for two consecutive Master of Business Administration (MBA) batches in one of the top...

This study examines how global educational technologies interact with local development priorities through the lens of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) in Ethiopian higher education teacher training. While digital learning platforms promise to democratize education globally, their...

This paper investigates whether the adoption of E-learning by firms contributed to offset the decrease in firm-sponsored training during the COVID-19 pandemic. Using a novel firm level survey linked with administrative data on the universe of workers within those firms, I study the role of...

Private Hochschulen und Universitäten wie zum Beispiel die DTMD University, zertifiziert (DeuZert) und akkreditiert (AHPGS, ASCB), gegründet 2017 mit Sitz im Schloss Wiltz in Luxemburg, passen ihre berufsbegleitende postgraduale Aus- und Weiterbildung an den Anfang 2020 geltenden Standard der...

Context: Recent research on students' experiences with the quality of online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic has increased the challenge to the development of online learning. During the pandemic, anxiety, depression, and fatigue occurred in online studies, which also weakened students'...

The use of virtual reality (VR) for the improvement of learning outcomes for accounting studies is an area in which the research is still limited. Technology-based accounting learning is very important because, currently, the accounting profession is very much affected by rapid technological...
