This paper provides a framework to recognize transformation to a new normal by: a) reviewing the history of BL associated with its models and design options; b) presenting general characteristics of BL in a matrix of place, distance, and technology; and c) analyzing scenario planning and strategies for reopening academic institutions. Based on the BL continuum and health and safety conditions resulting from the pandemic, the study first proposed a scenario planning framework. Second, it developed a classification framework of BL addressing its continuum, models, and learning theories via a smart learning environment. Finally, the study proposed a conceptual matrix of BL that considers health and safety conditions resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic.","PeriodicalId":44375,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Mobile and Blended Learning","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76551564","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}

Studies show that graduates are inadequately prepared for the working world. In an attempt to address this need a postgraduate certificate course was redesigned to follow a constructionist approach integrated with mobile technology. Data was collected from 2 learning designers and 29 students, forming a qualitative study. An evaluation of the activities and learning survival skills in the course was done using the Technology Integration Matrix (TIM). The results indicated that technology was integrated on various levels and students achieved a multitude of skills, making them more confident in their use of technology. Feelings of anxiety, incompetence and resistance were transformed to resilience, motivation and comfort. The art to address graduate preparedness for work lies in effective course design and a constructionist forward thinking approach to learning.","PeriodicalId":44375,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Mobile and Blended Learning","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44799028","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 evaluates 50 EFL learners’ accuracy, errors, and improvements in oral tasks during 28 days of training employing this chatbot, which located their grammar and pronunciation errors. The subjects’ grammar and pronunciation accuracy increased, and their oral performance was significantly improved. In addition, the chatbot was positively perceived by most participants.

Among these, adaptability, though acknowledged as an important issue in blended learning, warrants further study, together with its influencing factors. This study aimed to explore non-English majored learners’ adaptability to blended learning in College English from the perspective of English teachers. Semi-structured interviews with 16 English instructors from 5 universities were conducted, and the interview transcripts were qualitatively analyzed. The results showed that the non-English majored learners were not perceived to have fully adapted themselves to the new mode of College English and their adaptability was highly affected by agentive factors and contextual factors. The findings emphasize the key role of learners’ adaptability in blended learning environments. Additionally, this study further provides a vital insight for administrators and instructors to reconsider the role of learners’ responses to the blended learning mode and apply this understanding to improve achievement in English courses.","PeriodicalId":44375,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Mobile and Blended Learning","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41814429","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 exemplifies tourism in an increasingly mobile society as a mobile learning practice. Specifically, the learning of children during family travels and the mutual organization of human and non-human interactions are emphasized. Interviews with twelve Japanese parents revealed that children’s touristic learning encompassed the translation of various actors in tourist destinations and the spatiotemporal creation of a knowledge network different than that of settled areas and textbooks. Family tourism suspended cultural norms by moving children to boundaries, enabling them to learn beyond the usual constraints. Moreover, this article contends that children’s learning through tourism comprised negotiations with parents before tourism, accidental learning along the way, and reconfiguration of life afterward.","PeriodicalId":44375,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Mobile and Blended Learning","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75979792","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 paper, the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) model was extended to study mobile learning adoption. Seventy-seven different mobile learning adoption studies were analyzed, and seven new constructs (interaction, self-efficacy, innovation and motivation, satisfaction, attitude, literacy and readiness, and non-functional requirements) were added to the UTAUT model. Validation of the extended model was conducted, and the results indicate that it can positively contribute to the study of mobile learning adoption.","PeriodicalId":44375,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Mobile and Blended Learning","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42599639","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 focuses on first-year undergraduate computing students who failed to engage with a traditional, didactic approach to teaching soft skills. A radical curriculum redesign implemented a new methodological integration of action research, mobile technology, and constructivist pedagogy. Students created interactive artefacts with an augmented reality app, on mobile devices, to promote and enhance teamwork and communication skills. Following an action research methodology, students develop soft skills as an emergent aspect of a blended approach to their professionally-inspired project work. This more authentic approach, using their own mobile devices, captured the imagination of students and directed attention to the significance of broader skills relevant to industry. Over the four-year study period, submissions rose from 66% to 93%, with student satisfaction significantly enhanced.","PeriodicalId":44375,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Mobile and Blended Learning","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48227093","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 animated conditions and cueing patterns were the independent variables with an attempt to investigate their impacts on retention and transfer tests. Either dynamic or static visualizations with the presence of visuospatial cues served as the instructional material. 238 English as a foreign language (EFL) learners participated in the experiment. The learners were distributed to six groups—either dynamic or static visualizations enriched with non-cue, entity-cues and arrow-entity cues. Their prior knowledge was initially assessed, and then followed by retention and transfer tests and cognitive load measurements. The experimental results suggested that dynamic visualizations enriched with progressive visuospatial cues was more beneficial in helping learners to develop favorable quality of mental models.","PeriodicalId":44375,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Mobile and Blended Learning","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85049245","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}

Service providers such as government departments transformed their services from e-government to m-government for widespread customer reach. However, several issues existed that were obstructing the implementation of such a system by the Ministry of Housing in Oman, especially in rural areas. This study proposes a novel framework based on the fuzzy delphi and TOPSIS models to provide digital literacy and services. This framework considered the variables extracted from previous studies. Furthermore, a survey was conducted on 20 experts to determine the accepted variables. Thirty-five pre-service engineers evaluated the questionnaires using TOPSIS to determine the skills of pre-service engineers based on delphi criteria outcomes. The conceptual framework developed from the accepted results uses 11 different variables based on the TAM model.
