The study aims to identify the effectiveness of distance learning of mathematics from the perspective of the public-school teachers during the COVID pandemic. Differences of statistical significances between the answers of the participants were registered. To achieve the desired goals, researchers employed the descriptive approach; a questionnaire was designed to collect the necessary information from the research sample (125) teachers. Results show that effectiveness of distance learning of mathematics from the teachers' point of view was average. Regarding the fields, the field of objectives of the activation of mathematics curriculum distance learning came first whereas the liabilities of distance teaching of mathematics occupied the last place. No variations of statistical significance emerged regarding the distance teaching of mathematics in relation to the study variables. The research is expected to contribute usefully to the scientific community as it handles a global incidence and its implications within a developing country with limited resources and capabilities. The gap that the paper attempts to address is one of great significance as it answers pivotal questions on how technology in education can be a real hope for educational achievement in a marginalised area of the world.

This paper aims to identify the factors affecting the quality of the e-learning of physical education students. The statistical population of the paper consisted of undergraduate students at the University of Isfahan in the field of physical education who passed their theoretical and practical courses virtually in two semesters. The sample size was estimated to be 210 individuals based on the Krejcie and Morgan table. Then, a researcher-made questionnaire was employed to collect the required data. Exploratory factor analysis was used to identify the factors affecting the quality of e-learning and confirmatory factor analysis was used to confirm the identified factors. According to the results, the factors affecting the e-learning quality of theoretical and practical courses are teachers' characteristics, technical characteristics of the educational system, content, student characteristics, and evaluation and feedback.

This study aims to design and develop a framework for designing a metacognitive-supported augmented reality application for teaching and learning basic pneumatic systems. This multi-method study with the fuzzy delphi method (FDM) and interpretive structural modelling (ISM) approach involved 12 experts in multidisciplinary fields. The data was collected using seven Likert-type scale questionnaires. The design phase of the framework using the FDM found that the expert consensus for all principal components and the elements is greater than 75% with the threshold value, d ≤ 0.2. In contrast, the development phase of the framework was performed based on experts' voting using the ISM approach. The Concept Star software was used to develop the sequence of the elements based on their priority from every principal component to produce the MetAR design framework.

Innovation is a competitive factor for any organisation. It makes it possible to stand out from the competitors. Entities use the digital age's means to carry out their missions. In this respect, higher education institutions are no exception. Indeed, the search for an innovative education system is always relevant. This paper aims at presenting a systematic literature review (SLR) focusing on massive open online courses (MOOCs), their achievements and the challenges they are facing. Using the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analysis (PRISMA) model, the results of the synthesis and analysis of 27 papers show there is a variety of content that MOOCs have dealt with. Most of the published studies focus on the design. Only connectivist MOOCs can be considered an educational innovation. Moreover, the designers of MOOCs do not take into account the individual needs of the different participants. Hence, several challenges remain to be overcome. The identified gaps could motivate further research.

In an increasingly fast-changing and diverse world, the role of socio-emotional skills has become more crucial. These skills are correlated with academic and professional achievement, healthier interactions, and greater well-being. Contrary to commonly believed, socio-emotional skills are not innate and can be taught and learned. Although there are established and accepted standards and curricula available for socio-emotional learning (SEL), they mainly focus on teacher-led instruction in a regular classroom setting, which brings the extra cost of the necessary support and teachers' training. One alternative is using technological resources to develop these skills. However, an open question is which technologies exist for SEL and what is the evidence of their impacts and benefits. This paper presents a systematic mapping to show how socio-emotional skills are being taught using technological resources. We analysed the results and suggested under-explored areas to develop socio-emotional skills with technology and computational artefacts.

This research purposed to investigate the attitudes of elementary level teachers towards blended learning implementation in Turkey. The study was conducted by gathering data from 160 teachers working in elementary schools. To collect data, a mixed methods research design was implemented. Quantitative data were gathered with a survey instrument that measures the perception of teachers on blended learning and the qualitative data was collected by conducting individual interviews which had open-ended questions with ten participants. The results of quantitative data and qualitative findings indicated that teachers generally have a positive attitude towards the implementation of blended learning in elementary education.
