However, there has been a lack of empirical evidence on whether and how gamification may be able to improve learning motivation. Specifically, this study aims at exploring the antecedents and consequences of intrinsic learning motivation and its mediating role in gamification context.Design/methodology/approachA survey method was used to gather the information from students, and regression analysis was used to examine the relationship between three categories of gamification features (social, achievement and immersion), and intrinsic learning motivation. Moreover, this study further used self-determination theory to clarify how students' psychological needs (relatedness, competence and autonomy) mediate the effects of gamification and learning motivation.FindingsResults showed that social, achievement and immersion features are key aspects that impact students' intrinsic motivation. The psychological needs of students can further enhance these relationships.Originality/valueOverall, the findings illuminate the unique motivations for learning and reveal design strategies that can be implemented to improve teaching through gamification features.","PeriodicalId":51872,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Learning Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48023629","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}

Stegonography is widely used to send secret messages without being known by other people by using digital media in the form of image files so that besides the sender and recipient no one knows or is aware that there is a secret message in it. Several researchers have developed these methods such as Difference Expansion, Reduced Difference Expansion, Quad Difference Expansion and Controlling Expansion. These methods have been able to recover and improve data embedding but during the running process there are several problems that often occur, namely overflow and underflow of pixel values. To overcome the above problems, we modify the Controlling Expansion algorithm by minimizing the condition of the pixel difference value and reducing the final pixel difference value after inserting the data bit and using the Location Map on the new pixel value and during secret data extraction. The experimental results show that the proposed method can increase the data storage capacity and the PSNR of stego images is higher than the previous method.","PeriodicalId":51872,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Learning Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87083870","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}

Evidence allows for an artifact of learning (e.g. project, writing sample) to be included in a digital micro-credential. Micro-credentials that include evidence can support individualized learning; elucidate learners' qualifications; and make assessment and credentialing processes more inclusive.Design/methodology/approachThis conceptual paper explores the subject of higher education micro-credentials which are increasingly being offered as formal (albeit smaller and digital), credit-bearing credentials, far removed from the Open Digital Badge movement from which they originated. This paper presents a case for safeguarding the qualities of micro-credentials that allow for innovative practice, before micro-credentials become entirely subsumed into conventional assessment and credentialing practices.FindingsA review of the literature indicates that evidence, when used effectively, can support the innovative potential of micro-credentials. This subject is examined from the perspective of three categories of evidence, which are identified and illustrated through specific examples from the literature.Originality/valueThis paper fulfills a need to address the features of micro-credentials that, if used effectively, can challenge traditional assessment and credentialing paradigms. Evidence is rarely discussed in the literature and has not been thoroughly examined from this perspective. Additionally, faculty who develop and implement micro-credentials face numerous challenges when attempting to include evidence in micro-credentials.

In this context, gamification is an attractive alternative based on the use of elements of the games with educational purposes. However, it keeps the educational content to be learned as a central element without neglecting the “fun,” which contributing to engaging students. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the factors that affect students' engagement in an undergraduate course of Business Administration with gamified activities in remote education.Design/methodology/approachThe authors collected data through a survey available to students of the administration course at a private university in São Paulo (n = 671). This study used a quantitative approach, using SEM with PLS estimation and with the support of other analytical techniques.FindingsThe results support all the hypotheses formulated. Those with the associated construct “competition” obtained the most robust relationships, which denotes that competition is an essential element in gamification. Despite being supported by the results, “network exposure” influencing engagement is one point of attention to improving teaching strategies.Research limitations/implicationsGraduate schools could implement this type of gamified activity, evaluating whether students enrolled in higher degrees would willingly engage in a learning activity considered “less serious.”Practical implicationsHigher education institutions can benefit from this study by understanding that gamification is presented as an active methodology that increases students' engagement in teaching.Originality/valueThis research addressed gaps in the factors that affect students' engagement with gamified activities, proposing an alternative theoretical model to those present in the literature.","PeriodicalId":51872,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Learning Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44642612","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}

Consumer choice is successfully explained by CPV, but lesser attention is given to linking the theory to the mobile MOOC context whereby the majority of theories have adopted approaches like technology acceptance model (TAM), unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT), etc.Design/methodology/approachA mix-method approach was employed. Study A (qualitative), explores context-specific perceived value (PV) dimensions using nethnographic analysis of 627 learner reviews on Corsera app. Study B (quantitative), collects primary data by administering a questionnaire based on dimensions, and 231 responses were then analysed using structural equation modelling.FindingsThe results revealed that three context-specific PVs (i.e. pedagogy, interface and content) have a positive and significant impact on CI. Pedagogy value is a chief driving force of mobile MOOC CI followed by content value. Ubiquity value demonstrated insignificant impact.Practical implicationsThe findings provide insights for MOOC apps and their developers for formulating better value propositions for ensuring sustainable business which may result in gaining a higher share in the growing mobile learning market.Originality/valueThis study bridges an important gap in mobile MOOC literature by providing a novel approach to investigating what drives mobile MOOC CI through the lenses of CPV theory. It is the first study investigating mobile MOOC CI through the specific CPV dimensions identified by employing a mixed-method approach. The study formulates a conceptual framework that may serve as a foundation for future research on mobile MOOCs for which literature is relatively scant.","PeriodicalId":51872,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Learning Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48844736","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}

Dressing also has rules according to Islamic law, namely dressing not transparently, not tight, not the color of the skin and not resembling the opposite sex. Due to the increasing era of globalization, Indonesian people, especially children of the next generation, actually imitate or participate in globalization by dressing that is not appropriate according to Islamic law. Besides that, the era of globalization greatly affects the development of technology. An example of a highly developed technology is Smartphones based on Android. One way to attract people's interest to know how to dress properly in Islam is with animated videos. The Android-Based Dressing Guide Application for Muslim Women and Men was created with two programs, namely Adobe Animate and Herman. The Adobe Animate application is used because it has more complete and up-to-date features and fulfills the need to create Android-based applications. Animated videos are made using Adobe Animate, for audio and backsound using stock background music from the Yottube platform and other supporting websites. The result of this application is an .apk file that is compatible with Android mobile devices. The results of testing this application are expected to provide understanding to children aged 6 years and over about the benefits of dressing according to Islamic law in an attractive and fun format.","PeriodicalId":51872,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Learning Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73836195","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}
