Nepali academic institutions from pre-primary schools to universities also entered into online learning. Such online learning aimed to control the educational damage threatened by the infectious pandemic and lingering lockdown. This study draws on 33 research papers to identify the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) concerning online learning during Covid-19 in Nepal. In particular, the study investigates whether online learning created a digital divide or contributed to a positive contribution to the quality of delivery of education in Nepal in future. The systematic review finds that frequent power cuts, poor internet connectivity and inadequate ICT tools for online learning as the most common educational hindrances along with the loss of practical, applied activities and fieldwork for those studying technical subjects. The final SWOT analysis identified more weaknesses and threats in comparison to strengths and opportunities associated with online learning during Covid-19 in Nepal. However, if Nepal and her academic institutions minimize or redress the weaknesses, reinforce the existing strengths, institutionalize the opportunities, and mitigate the possible threats concerning online learning, the learning has the potential to become more effective. Certainly, there is a digital divide, but the study also identified the strengths and opportunities of online learning during Covid-19 that have stemmed the educational damage as a silver lining in the cloud of the Corona Virus.","PeriodicalId":39456,"journal":{"name":"E-Learning","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45178361","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 aims to analyze the application of infographics in higher education. The authors conducted a scoping review of the scientific articles to analyze the use of infographics across a variety of university subjects. The findings revealed that the most frequent educational practices were those that merged both ready-made infographics and students’ hands-on experience in creating their own infographics. Such learning activities facilitated the learning of the subject-related material and helped students to advance with the creation of this popular form of modern communication. The tasks including infographics also represented an enhanced mission of higher education as students were given opportunities to develop a number of personal and career readiness skills and capabilities simultaneously, such as digital, visual and information literacy, critical thinking, creativity, communication and collaboration skills. The educational recommendations and technological solutions proposed might diversify teaching and learning practices in higher education.","PeriodicalId":39456,"journal":{"name":"E-Learning","volume":"20 1","pages":"191 - 206"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42756153","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 purpose of this study was to investigate the dominant drivers of the adoption and usage of LMS by faculty to enhance e-learning education in universities in Ghana. The study tested selected variables in Innovation Diffusion Theory, the Technology Acceptance Model, and some constructs pertaining to Image, Subjective Norms, and Facilitating conditions, based on data from a census of 435 lecturers, which secured 283 completed questionnaires. The fit indices revealed a good fit between the measurement model and the data: (χ2 = 383.23, df = 271, p < .05; SRMR = 0.046; TLI = 0.965; CFI = 0.971; RMSEA = 0.038. The SEM results showed that the hypothesized model appropriately matched the data: (χ2 = 360.39, df = 253, p < .05; SRMR = 0.048; CFI = 0.971; TLI = 0.964; RMSEA = 0.040. The results obtained from the test of hypotheses revealed that Perceived Ease of Use had a positive and significant relationship with Actual Use (β = 0.45, p < .05). Compatibility also had a significantly positive relationship with Perceived Usefulness (β = 0.62, p < .05). The study concludes that the responsibility of university authorities for providing ICT infrastructure, regular training, and other incentives to enable their faculty to appreciate and engage the e-learning environment is at the core of a successful adoption of educational technologies. Among others, the study recommends that university authorities provide continuous training in LMS use for their teaching staff, especially the slow adopters and non-users, to encourage greater adoption and use.","PeriodicalId":39456,"journal":{"name":"E-Learning","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47627706","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}

In addition, the study examined the correlation between “daily Internet use,” “initial Internet usage,” and “purpose of Internet use” with the variables of DL, IA, and CL. The study groups consisted of 1220 higher education students including all faculties and all grades of a state university. The “Digital Literacy Scale,” “Internet Addiction Scale,” and “Cyberloafing Scale” were used as data collection instruments. The study’s findings revealed initial Internet usage to be a predictor of DL, IA, and CL. Similarly, participants who spent more than 6 h using the Internet during a day have a higher level of DL, CL, and IA. Results from structural equation modeling reported a positive association between DL and IA, a negative association between DL and CL, and a positive relationship between IA and CL. Moreover, an indirect effect was revealed from DL to CL through IA. The study suggests improving students’ DL skills, as they form the basis of avoiding CL behavior, and using the Internet mostly for educational purposes.","PeriodicalId":39456,"journal":{"name":"E-Learning","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42751265","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}

With the onset of lockdown due to the coronavirus pandemic, the shift to online teaching and learning left students with diverse learning needs feeling adrift and on their own to grapple with the change, without prior preparation. As teachers also had to adapt to the shift to online teaching, the diverse learner needs became a secondary concern to them. The LSE were also unable to offer support in the traditional form due to physical distancing and lockdown rules. This paper explores possible ways in which teachers of diverse classes and LSEs can assist learners with diverse needs to succeed in their online learning. The study followed action research methodology that was conducted by an LSE who case-managed seven learners in a Johannesburg private school with inclusive teaching practices. The qualitative research study explored new ways to support diverse learners in their online learning by finding possible alternatives to the challenges that online learning posed for them. Observations, self-reflections, and information collected from students, their teachers and parents, were analysed using content analysis technique to propose possible workable solutions. Checking in on learners and their parents regularly during lockdown and giving them strategies for coping was found to be helpful. Teachers who had previously incorporated ‘blended’ teaching in their practice were found to be generally more collaborative: they varied their teaching, had their students produce better results, were able to include online inclusive activities and groupwork activities in their teaching in order to avoid learner boredom, and they were found to be giving quality feedback to the learners and their parents.","PeriodicalId":39456,"journal":{"name":"E-Learning","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42333970","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}

How to develop new study environments? And what role must teachers play? Literature shows that in education ICTs facilitate efficient and effective access to digital information; that those students may become more focused and capable of self-pace learning; generate a creative learning environment; ease and promote collaborative learning …. We present the results of the research developed in 2019 at the University of the Basque Country where active methodologies and ICTs support are used to turn students into protagonists of their learning process. Analyzing students’ perception and attitude towards ICTs, related to traditional learning and digital learning, we conclude that students consider and use ICTs as a complement to transmission model. However, we strongly believe that the knowledge society requires a model that takes into account the principles of the constructivism learning theory. Students must develop a more independent attitude towards teachers and face-to-face (F2F) learning, as well as critical skills to evaluate the data offered by the Internet.","PeriodicalId":39456,"journal":{"name":"E-Learning","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43427208","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}

Due to COVID-19, the online learning education system has become very popular. Most probably, all education systems have been using the IoT-based E-Learning system to continue the students’ education without hindrance during the COVID lockdown. Several E-Learning IoT schemes are explored that reflect privacy and security, but still, there is no detailed scheme; hence, it needs a sustainable, secure E-Learning IoT system. The characteristics and prospects of the Internet of Things are discussed in this article. By analyzing the various functions and capabilities of the Internet of Things, this article aims to provide an overview of the various advantages and challenges of using the platform for e-learning. This paper proposed the E-Learning IoT architecture with Blockchain technology, with layers of different IoT and Blockchain concepts to secure the online education system. Also, the block diagram of the proposed architecture demonstrates how students can securely access or interact with the online learning system through Blockchain technology. By implementing the proposed e-learning IoT architecture, universities and colleges can improve their distance learning programs and increase efficiency without affecting their academic activities. Finally, the study found that e-learning positively impacts students' learning experience and overall quality of education. It also exhibited a significant positive impact on their flexibility and academic productivity.","PeriodicalId":39456,"journal":{"name":"E-Learning","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46220467","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}

In this study, we analyse the patterns of student smartphone use on academic campuses and propose a range of policy measures to address the problems arising from such use. Our research, which draws on primary data collected through a field survey in Assam, India, is one of very few studies in the field to focus on northeast India. Inspired by the literature review, which revealed empirical findings on student smartphone use behaviour, we create and evaluate four policy alternatives: a complete ban on smartphones in educational institutions, the use of student smartphones with proper training, the use of specific smartphones with/without particular applications, and the development of learning platforms and study materials to regulate student smartphone use. Our results show that students who use smartphones prioritise ‘information collection’, although the information they collect may not relate to their studies. We argue that the best policy would be to reduce attention deficiencies by allowing students to use smartphones on campus but not in classrooms. In addition, both teachers and students should receive necessary training on effective smartphone use to exchange academic information.","PeriodicalId":39456,"journal":{"name":"E-Learning","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47382397","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}
