Design Features for Gender-specific Differences in Blended Learning within Higher Education in Indonesia

2019

Blended learning offers learning solutions for higher educational institutions facing the industrial revolution 4.0. In this study, we investigated the influence factors student perceptions of blended learning based on gender-specific differences in Indonesia. We applied a research model to systematically assess the effect of design features on the effectiveness of blended learning indicators (intrinsic motivation and student satisfaction). Moreover, we evaluated the research model for both genders separately. Based on the quantitative survey of 223 Indonesian students, our study confirms that the design features significantly influence the effectiveness of blended learning for male and fem…

El método del caso como herramienta de aprendizaje activo en arqueología

2021

[EN] The case study, like other methodologies that enhance the active participation of the students, greatly favours the teaching-learning process. Here we present the design, application and results of the cases implemented in two Archaeology subjects (History Degree, University of Valencia). Within the framework of a Teaching Innovation Project (METARQ), we have implemented, in six different groups, two cases related to two subjects: Archaeological Methodology (3rd year-2nd semester, three groups) and Mediterranean Archaeology (4th year-1st semester, three groups). Both the learning results and the general opinion of the students were very positive. In addition, the application of this po…

Blended learning in master studies in Mathematical Information Technology — Impacts on attendance and learning outcomes

2011

Blended learning based on lecture videos and face-to-face teaching provides good opportunities for students for participation in education, regardless of time or place. This article examines the impacts of blended learning, as it has developed in connection with master studies in information technology, on participation in education and on learning outcomes. The solution is based on face-to-face teaching and the use of streaming lecture videos. According to the results, the use of lecture videos increases participation activeness, and the increase in participation has a positive impact on completion of courses. However, the use of lecture videos does not seem to have any clear-cut effect on…

PeerLA - Assistant for Individual Learning Goals and Self-Regulation Competency Improvement in Online Learning Scenarios

2016

While online learning is already a part of university education and didactics, not all students have the necessary self-regulation competency to really learn on their own efficiently and effectively. In classroom a teacher can take over a moderating part, set intermediate goals and give feedback to one's progress, but participants of online learning courses (e.g. in blended scenarios or Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs)) face a higher demand of self-regulation competency. This paper presents a course and content independent assistant, PeerLA, which assists in improving self-regulation competency. PeerLA allows setting of long-term goals, breakdown into intermediate goals and keeps track o…

Blended learning: communication, locations and work-life practices

2011

The article discusses blended learning and how various delivery formats affect the way learning is situated in work-life practices. The authors approached this issue through an empirical study of an in-service training programme for middle-level managers in a number of case organisations. The programme used a combination of e-learning, textbooks and face-to-face seminars. The conclusion reached is that a purposeful blend of delivery modes and technology systems can situate learning outside the daily work location and at the same time facilitate the creation of communities of practice embedded in daily work experience. It is further argued that inflexibility can be a necessary for creation o…

Towards a Blended Learning Model for Teaching and Learning Computer Programming: A Case Study

2008

Blended learning is becoming an attractive model in higher education as new innovative information technologies are becoming increasingly available. However, just blending face-to-face learning with information technologies cannot provide effective teaching and efficient solutions for learning. To be successful, blended learning must rely on solid learning theory and pedagogical strategies. In addition, there is a need for a design-based research approach to explore blending learning through successive cycles of experimentations, where the shortcomings of each cycle are identified, redesigned, and reevaluated. This paper reports on a study conducted on a blended learn- ing model in Java pro…

Diversification of adult education with the help of video lectures

2010

For some years now, adult education and working while studying have had an important role in the modern society. Mature-age study brings with it some special features, such as time use limitations, which must be taken into account when creating educational programmes for the students concerned. Above all, flexibility must become a major feature of participation in education. In relation to the Master Studies in Mathematical Information Technology at Kokkola University Consortium, the aim for some years now has been to increase that flexibility by diversifying traditional lecture teaching with the help of real-time and on-demand video lectures. With the help of the results presented in this …

Aktivitātes tālmācības vidusskolas 10. klases angļu valodas stundās pašvadītas mācīšanās pilnveidošanai

2021

Darba autore nesen sāka strādāt par angļu valodas skolotāju tālmācības vidusskolā. Pētījuma mērķis bija pielietot praksē uzdevumus, kas pilnveidotu pašvadītas mācīšanās prasmes tālmācības skolas 10. klases angļu valodas stundās. Pētījuma bāze bija 49 tālmācības skolēni, kuriem bija jāveic ikmēneša uzdevumos iestrādāts pašvērtējums un atgriezeniskā saite, attiecīgi tika veikta kvalitatīva datu vākšana un analīze. Tika apzināts, kādas pašvadītas mācīšanās prasmes audzēkņi ir apguvuši un kādi izaicinājumi joprojām pastāv. Rezultātā tika ieskicētas turpmāk veicamās aktivitātes pašvadītas mācīšanās sekmēšanai. Pētījuma atziņas var izmantot skolotāji, kuri saskaras ar tiešsaistes mācību izaicināj…
