The success of blended learning depends on many factors. 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.

The perspective of mobile learning research has transitioned from using mobile technology for education to learning as a human and non-human practice surrounding mobility. 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.

A contemporary challenge for education in STEM is the need to produce work-ready graduates for a fast-changing and technology-driven workplace. 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.

Mobile learning has seen tremendous growth in recent years, and the future seems promising with the mass integration of mobile devices in the teaching and learning process. The adoption of mobile learning technology is one of the widely researched areas. 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.

The present study was to explore whether dynamic visualizations enriched with visuospatial cues can optimize learners’ cognitive processing of mechanical systems. 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.

In the dynamic world of technology, changes and transformations have emerged rapidly in recent years. 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. The study benefits the stakeholders in the area of m-government development.

The purpose of this study is to enhance the effect of dance skill learning, learning motivation, and physical activity class satisfaction. Moreover, the outcome of these quasi-experiments illustrate the effects of Facebook Live-stream teaching, co-regulated learning (CRL), and experience-based learning (ExBL) on improving students' learning performance. The experimental design in this study was a 2 (CRL vs. non-CRL) × 2 (ExBL vs. non-ExBL) factorial pretest/post-test design. Four classes of a course titled ‘Physical Education: Dance' at university level were chosen for this study in one semester. According to the analysis of results, conclusions of this study are that students who receive ExBL have significantly higher physical activity class satisfaction than students who do not receive ExBL. In addition, in the case of ExBL teaching, the concurrent implementation of CRL can improve students' dance skill learning more than ExBL alone.

Mobile devices, primarily cell phones, smartphones, and tablet PCs, have gradually been introduced into the university campus and online education over the past few decades. Does the use of mobile devices in distance learning motivate students and affect the learning process? These are important questions that were raised more than a decade ago, but they are still unanswered. This research aims to answer these vital questions. A total of 323 valid and unduplicated responses from online students at a Midwestern university in the U.S. were used to examine the structural model, using SmartPLS v. 3.3.2. This study shows that the use of mobile devices positively affects the students' intrinsic and extrinsic motivation to learn, which in turn positively affects the cognitive learning process variables (student-student dialogue, student-instructor dialogue, and metacognitive self-regulated learning processes). Furthermore, the learning process variables positively affect the perceived learning outcomes.
在过去的几十年里，移动设备，主要是手机、智能手机和平板电脑，已经逐渐被引入大学校园和在线教育。在远程学习中使用移动设备是否能激励学生并影响学习过程?这些都是十多年前提出的重要问题，但至今仍未得到解答。这项研究旨在回答这些至关重要的问题。使用SmartPLS v. 3.3.2，我们从美国中西部一所大学的在线学生那里获得了323份有效且不重复的回复，用于检验结构模型。本研究表明，移动设备的使用正向影响学生的内在和外在学习动机，进而正向影响认知学习过程变量(学生与学生对话、学生与教师对话和元认知自我调节学习过程)。此外，学习过程变量对感知学习结果有正向影响。

Social media applications such as Facebook have received wide attention in their use in education. However, it is still hard to arrive at a conclusion regarding whether a Facebook-assisted approach is effective in education and whether there are any significant gender differences in the learning outcomes. Based on rigid inclusion criteria, this study included 21 peer-reviewed high-quality journal articles. Through a meta-analysis using Reviewer Manager 5.3, the authors concluded that a Facebook-assisted approach could obtain significantly higher learning outcomes than the non-Facebook-assisted one with a medium effect size (d = 0.42) and that females could achieve significantly better learning outcomes than males with a very small effect size (d = -0.21) in the Facebook-assisted education. Future research could examine the effect of educational use of other social media applications, as well as in sociological, psychological, or educational dimensions.

As a lecturer at a higher education institution in South Africa, the author is conscious of an emphasis placed on multimodal resources as part of the globally experienced shift to teach remotely due to the COVID-19 epidemic. In this autoethnographic study, she critically reflects on her experience in planning and executing the implementation of a custom-made multimodal resource called WIReD. WIReD is an acronym for writing, information literacy and reading development. She situates academic literacy and WIReD within the theoretical framework of multiliteracies, and thereafter provides background in terms of the study context and gives a brief description of WIReD. The methodology section includes the data used, a brief discussion on validity, reliability, and the reflexive process. The data analysis led to two broad categories of implementation inhibitors, namely inadequate resources and collaboration. These hindrances highlight broader issues with regard to institutional management, lecturers, and the needs of students in the South African higher education context.
