A total of 28 students (14 girls, mean age = 14.71 years) participated. The results show that Escape Fake can address four learning objectives relevant in fake news detection with educationally desired effect sizes: Knowledge acquisition (d = 1.34), ability to discern information (d = 0.39), critical attitude toward trustworthiness of online information (d = 0.53), and confidence in recognizing fake news in the future (d = 0.41). Based on these results, the game can be recommended as an educational resource for media literacy education. Future research directions are also discussed.},

The study was conducted at XJTLU, a Sino-foreign university, where the language barriers of first-year students posed difficulties in their transition from informal language to the formal tone required in academic writing. Through a careful experimental design, participants were assigned to either an experimental or a control group, with the former engaging in a structured H5P pathway including five specific academic writing style rules based on learner needs analysis. The five rules are in aspects of word choice, sentence structure, transition, hedging and redundancy. The latter received lesson PPTs with the same content. This paper discusses the results of the study, which show that the application of the H5P pathway effectively assisted Year 1 students at XJTLU in narrowing the gap between the two writing styles. Preliminary analysis indicates a significant improvement in the experimental group's academic writing style specifically in aspects of using formal words and complex sentence structure. By comparison, other than word choice, there is no significant improvement in the control group. The findings of this study highlight the potential of H5P pathways as an effective tool for enhancing college students' academic writing style. Through interactive and tailored activities, students’ challenges at academic writing conventions could be addressed. This research provides implications for innovative pedagogical strategies that can promote students' academic development.},

One of the main challenges of asynchronous distance learning is keeping students engaged and motivated, as they do not have the same engagement with their peers and teachers as in traditional face-to-face learning environments. HTML 5 package (H5P) is an interactive learning tool that has the potential to fill this need due to its numerous immediate interactive features, such as interactive videos, pop quizzes, and games during media playback. This study investigates the effectiveness of using H5P and Moodle in asynchronous distance learning environments for undergraduate students. The data collection methods included pre-and post-surveys for Moodle and H5P and the questions related to the student perspectives towards H5P features. The technology acceptance model (TAM) is employed to find student satisfaction. The results of this study suggest that both the H5P and Moodle could be valuable tools for making E-learning more effective.

While in HE, students tend to make small movements to the left and become less ethnocentric, representing approximately 20–33% of the overall division between those with and without experience of HE. These findings are interpreted through a critical realist lens—they evidence that HE could have a causal role to play in creating contemporary political divisions.

UNESCO considers Open Educational Resources (OER) vital in achieving this. OERs are educational material shared under an open license permitting free access, use, adaption, and redistribution under few restrictions. The OER movement has regained attention, with COVID-19 forcing millions to study from home. However, there are many challenges to continued growth. One of the most crucial challenges is quality control. Current approaches are mainly built on manual reviews, which are time-consuming and expensive.
This thesis proposes a white-box algorithm that combines theoretical quality knowledge with measurable metrics to give a quality score.

I performed a comparative study of the algorithm and the most adopted approach: manual reviews. 23 H5P users were recruited to perform 107 manual reviews of 57 OERs. The manual reviews scored different quality factors, two overall scores, and could add a comment for each resource. The data were then used to find the degree of agreement between the two methods and their reliability.
The result was low to moderate degree of agreement between the manual reviews and algorithm scores. That means that the algorithm can be a suitable approach in certain cases, but mostly as an addition to other methods. However, the most crucial finding was the low reliability of the manual reviews. The reviews were highly subjective and this has significant implications for this study and all research using reviews as a data source.

Recommendations include the review and revision of curricula and support programs with specific learner characteristics in mind, addressing potential biases with culturally responsive strategies leading to greater representation. Future research should continue to track trends related to online student needs and perspectives and expand descriptions of gender beyond binary categories.

abstract = {A commonly cited use of Learning Styles theory is to use information from self-report questionnaires to assign learners into one or more of a handful of supposed styles (e.g., Visual, Auditory, Converger) and then design teaching materials that match the supposed styles of individual students. A number of reviews, going back to 2004, have concluded that there is currently no empirical evidence that this “matching instruction” improves learning, and it could potentially cause harm. Despite this lack of evidence, survey research and media coverage suggest that belief in this use of Learning Styles theory is high amongst educators. However, it is not clear whether this is a global pattern, or whether belief in Learning Styles is declining as a result of the publicity surrounding the lack of evidence to support it. It is also not clear whether this belief translates into action. Here we undertake a systematic review of research into belief in, and use of, Learning Styles amongst educators. We identified 37 studies representing 15,405 educators from 18 countries around the world, spanning 2009 to early 2020. Self-reported belief in matching instruction to Learning Styles was high, with a weighted percentage of 89.1{37d1f293241a1edd19b097ce37fa29bd44d887a41b5283a0fc9485076e078306}, ranging from 58 to 97.6{37d1f293241a1edd19b097ce37fa29bd44d887a41b5283a0fc9485076e078306}. There was no evidence that this belief has declined in recent years, for example 95.4{37d1f293241a1edd19b097ce37fa29bd44d887a41b5283a0fc9485076e078306} of trainee (pre-service) teachers agreed that matching instruction to Learning Styles is effective. Self-reported use, or planned use, of matching instruction to Learning Styles was similarly high. There was evidence of effectiveness for educational interventions aimed at helping educators understand the lack of evidence for matching in learning styles, with self-reported belief dropping by an average of 37{37d1f293241a1edd19b097ce37fa29bd44d887a41b5283a0fc9485076e078306} following such interventions. From a pragmatic perspective, the concerning implications of these results are moderated by a number of methodological aspects of the reported studies. Most used convenience sampling with small samples and did not report critical measures of study quality. It was unclear whether participants fully understood that they were specifically being asked about the matching of instruction to Learning Styles, or whether the questions asked could be interpreted as referring to a broader interpretation of the theory. These findings suggest that the concern expressed about belief in Learning Styles may not be fully supported by current evidence, and highlight the need to undertake further research on the objective use of matching instruction to specific Learning Styles.},

Self-reported belief in matching instruction to Learning Styles was high, with a weighted percentage of 89.1{37d1f293241a1edd19b097ce37fa29bd44d887a41b5283a0fc9485076e078306}, ranging from 58 to 97.6{37d1f293241a1edd19b097ce37fa29bd44d887a41b5283a0fc9485076e078306}. There was no evidence that this belief has declined in recent years, for example 95.4{37d1f293241a1edd19b097ce37fa29bd44d887a41b5283a0fc9485076e078306} of trainee (pre-service) teachers agreed that matching instruction to Learning Styles is effective. Self-reported use, or planned use, of matching instruction to Learning Styles was similarly high. There was evidence of effectiveness for educational interventions aimed at helping educators understand the lack of evidence for matching in learning styles, with self-reported belief dropping by an average of 37{37d1f293241a1edd19b097ce37fa29bd44d887a41b5283a0fc9485076e078306} following such interventions. From a pragmatic perspective, the concerning implications of these results are moderated by a number of methodological aspects of the reported studies. Most used convenience sampling with small samples and did not report critical measures of study quality. It was unclear whether participants fully understood that they were specifically being asked about the matching of instruction to Learning Styles, or whether the questions asked could be interpreted as referring to a broader interpretation of the theory. These findings suggest that the concern expressed about belief in Learning Styles may not be fully supported by current evidence, and highlight the need to undertake further research on the objective use of matching instruction to specific Learning Styles.

COVID-19 has led to increased use of screen-based simulation. However, the importance of including a robust debriefing as a component of these simulations is often neglected.
Problem
Failing to include debriefing with screen-based simulation could negatively impact student learning outcomes.
Approach
Debriefing, including recollection, discussion to reveal understanding, feedback and reflection, is a process of helping learners make sense of learned content and knowledge as it is applied to the patient care experience. Debriefing for Meaningful Learning (DML) is an evidence-based method derived from theory, which can be easily incorporated into screen-based simulation to augment the clinical learning experience.
Conclusion
By guiding learners to consistently engage in DML, clinical decisions and actions taken during virtual simulations can be uncovered, discussed, challenged, corrected, and explored. Including a synchronous, structured debriefing like DML ensures that screen-based simulation results in meaningful learning in addition to performance feedback to foster safe and quality patient care.},
