Dropout of students from their studies is the major concern for any order of education. Some models for predicting the dropout of students are developed with several factors. Many of them lacked consistency as they backed their studies with the academic performance of the students. Especially, for those students who suffered from physical impairment, the dropout depends on several external factors. Hence, this work proposes a novel HFIPO-DPNN to predict the student dropout rooted in the previous semester’s marks. The proposed model enclosed the hybrid firefly and improved particle swarm algorithm to optimize the feature selection that influences the dropout of hearing-impaired students. The optimized feature data are used to predict the dropout with the novel DPNN. The optimized data was split and used for training the DPNN. The testing data is used to evaluate the performance of the proposed framework. The attributes used for predicting the student dropout are Family Size, Subject, Medium of Instruction, and so on. The data must be collected from 250 physically impaired children belonging to ITI institute, Bangalore. The outcome of the proposed framework is evaluated on several metrics. The accuracy of the proposed model is about 99.02%. The HFIPO-DPNN framework can be enhanced for predicting the dropout for students with other disabilities. The optimization showed that factors influencing education other than familial factors are to be considered in the prediction of dropout.","PeriodicalId":36846,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Education Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42336008","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Consequently, teaching pedagogies were unexpectedly changed, and a sudden shift towards online teaching was necessitated. The extensive availability of devices and applications made this shift easy. Nevertheless, all teachers were not equally equipped with the equivalent knowledge and resources, which could have affected their behavioral intention to continue online teaching in the future. This paper investigates the perception of university teachers to continue online teaching in higher education post-COVID. To accomplish this target, a mixed research approach was adopted. For quantitative data, 243 questionnaires were successfully collected from teachers of the top five central universities in India, using an online survey through Google forms by integrating the technology acceptance model (TAM). For qualitative data, online-focused group discussions (FGDs) with around seven teachers from different nations’ universities were done. This study is cross-sectional, utilizing TAM factors for ascertaining teachers’ behavioral intentions in India. All hypotheses were found significant by applying PLS-based SEM using smart-PLS software. This indicates that perceived usefulness and ease of use significantly impact attitude towards online teaching; further, perceived usefulness and attitude towards online teaching also significantly affect the behavioral intention of teachers to continue online teaching post-COVID era. The study helps educational institutions and respective national policymakers to define the future course of action in the education sector.","PeriodicalId":36846,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Education Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67491059","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Currently, a problem in managing online teaching of courses is that instructors do not have the appropriate tools and techniques to be fully aware of students’ behavioral patterns in a data-driven and process-aware approach. This study is divided into three main parts. In the first part, a dataset of online students is transformed and preprocessed. In the second part, the Fuzzy Miner algorithm supported by Fluxicon Disco is applied to the dataset to understand the learning process of the students in terms of the duration and length of the tutorial videos watched online (i.e., fully watched, partially watched, paused, and resumed intervals) and in terms of the frequencies of all activities. In the third part, a comparison between behavioral patterns of high-performance group of students versus their low-performance counterparts attending the same course was conducted, and we used the Dotted Chart Analysis technique supported by ProM to conduct and make the comparisons. The results of the study showed significant differences between the two groups in terms of the duration spent on the tutorial videos and in terms of the sequence and order of the activities performed and executed. The findings of the research can be used by instructors, administrators, and educational managers to improve the course curriculum management process or to boost effective coaching and teaching styles, leading to the optimization of students’ learning process by increasing educators’ awareness about students’ weaknesses and strengths.","PeriodicalId":36846,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Education Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67491836","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The use of social media in schools of higher learning has also been the subject of study. The use of social media has opened up new avenues of contact, collaboration, and participation between students and teachers. Accepting students and educators who make use of technological tools to do so requires insight into the factors that shape their propensity to do so. Using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) framework, which highlights perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, and behavioral intention to use new technologies, this paper investigates the extent to which Nigerians are adopting social networking media for e-learning. Quantitative studies made use of surveys. Teachers and students from four different Nigerian schools participated in this survey. The suggested model factors were predicted using structural equation modeling (SEM). Intentions to utilize social media for e-learning by students and faculty at Nigerian institutions were shown to be impacted by these factors: perceived ease of use and perceived utility. The research is limited in that it does not offer any insight into interactive factors such interaction with research group members and peers, interaction with supervisors or lecturers, engagement, or active collaborative learning.","PeriodicalId":36846,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Education Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67492022","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to explore the thoughts and opinions of the Bachelor of Science in Information Technology students (BSIT) on the new normal virtual learning using NVivo software to facilitate the process of defining and analyzing the themes and to determine the common difficulties experienced by the students in the new learning set up. The study used a qualitative design. 150 BSIT students served as the respondents. The data gathered were processed in the NVivo software to get important verbalizations and describe what was common among the students’ opinions. The derived meaning or statements were formulated and categorized into codes and themes. There were five themes derived such as learning is hard due to limited or poor internet connectivity; in this time of the pandemic, gadgets are the teachers; money is most needed to buy prepaid load for phones; learning is harder because of lack of tools like a laptop, and; problems in the module requirements are high. With the Students’ Perspective on New Normal Virtual Learning, with its pros and cons, online classes must not prevent students from getting the education they need and deserve even amid the pandemic. Hence, it is advised that virtual learning should be planned, implemented, and evaluated to lessen the problems thus, achieve better learning objectives for each course.","PeriodicalId":36846,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Education Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67492553","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Distance learning helped learners continue their studies as schools and universities were closed due to the pandemic. The purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of Covid-19 lockdown on learners' academic performance. This research focuses on the challenges faced by distance learning learners. The purpose of this study is to identify barriers to distance learning. This study applies the DEMATEL (Decision Making Test and Evaluation Institute) approach to assess the barriers faced by learners in distance learning. The DEMATEL strategy is being used to identify the key factors by identifying the interrelationships between the various factors. A quantitative survey method using a structured questionnaire was carried out. The questionnaire was administered to a cohort of 54 undergraduate engineering students of third semester (2nd year) pursuing Bachelor of Technology (Information Technology) in India. This study found that motivation, social interaction, and resource costs were assessed in causal groups with RiCi scores of 0.332, 0.1774, and 0.113, respectively. Technical concerns and administrative issues are categorized in the effect group with Ri-Ci values of -0.333 and -0.287 respectively and are the most important criteria based on first and second highest Ri+Ci values of 0.646524 and 0.59817, respectively. Our findings reveal that motivation is the most important barrier in remote teaching learning. A sense of self-motivation can be induced by organizing workshops, practical sessions and grooming sessions. The study would benefit academic institutions and learners as it would help them to enrich the remote teaching learning process.","PeriodicalId":36846,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Education Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67492753","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This method is based on creativity and creating solutions and is primarily human focused. It involves a five-step process: discovery, explanation, thinking, experimenting, and developing. In this study, the researchers employed empathy in redesigning the content after each class based on student feedback and reflections. The sample included 92 female students: 50 in a design-thinking classroom and 42 in a conventional classroom. Three instruments were developed: a teachers’ guide, an achievement test, and a questionnaire on students’ motivation toward learning biology. Data were analyzed using the mean, standard deviation, an ANCOVA test, and size effect. The results showed that there were statistically significant differences in students’ increased motivation and achievement of biology in favor of the design-thinking classes. Although the results indicated that there was a statistically significant difference for teaching by the design-thinking method in improving students’ achievement according to students’ GPA, the results did not indicate a statistically significant difference in enhancing students’ motivation toward learning biology according to GPA. Therefore, instructors and curriculum developers should restructure the contents of their courses according to the design-thinking model to optimize students’ motivation and understanding of cell biology.","PeriodicalId":36846,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Education Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67493314","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
