Accessibility Guidelines

Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is a pedagogical design theory that accounts for variability across and within learners, both in physical classrooms and with online learning materials. Librarians at Washington State University implemented elements reflective of specific UDL checkpoints in a heavily-used LibGuide for a required undergraduate course. Online learning objects create opportunities for meeting UDL’s goals of not only multiple means of representation, but also engagement and action and expression extending beyond the baseline obligation to meet standard accessibility guidelines. We discuss our implementation of UDL elements, changes in LibGuide use before and after the introduction of UDL features, and usability study results, focusing on how students who face learning barriers view UDL. We explain considerations for successfully implementing UDL in online materials and the potential benefits.

We describe an organising principle for online learning materials we term coherently organised digital exercises and expositions. Larger in scale than individual lessons but smaller than a programme of study, this innovation in instructional practice is increasingly guiding our thinking in the development of university mathematics courses. Essentially we have taken the book and put it inside automatically assessed online quizzes. In doing this we embrace the potential provided by new technology to implement evidence-based practices such as spaced retrieval practice. This paper discusses details of this innovation, and how we have implemented it. On the basis of these experiences, we believe this innovation has the potential to change the model of education for university mathematics courses in substantial and non-trivial ways.

The Brain

The learning model is a collection of activities that occur during the teaching and learning process with the objective of achieving the set goals. The brain-based online learning model developed is a solution to the students' learning problems. The majority of students struggle to interpret all of the learning materials they receive. This resulted in students' dissatisfaction with the learning materials. The purpose of this research is to develop a brain-based online learning process design based on the aforementioned problems. The Lee & Owens model of development was used in this development research. The stages of the Lee & Owens development model are analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The development research findings are as follows: (1) the media experts' assessment, which resulted in an 89.35% score with a valid category. (2) The assessment of the developed learning materials by material experts resulted in a score of 91.23% with a valid category. (3) expert evaluation, with an overall score of 86.35% for having a valid category. (4) The results of individual trials produced a percentage score of 88.5% with a valid category. (5) The results of small group trials indicated an overall percentage score of 81.60% of valid categories. (6) Field trials are classified as valid when they receive a percentage of 79.89%. The results of the development indicate that the brain-based online learning design is feasible for use.   Received: 11 August 2021 / Accepted: 27 October 2021 / Published: 5 November 2021

As a result of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, college and university faculty have been tasked with moving their courses toward online modalities with minimal notice. This environment challenged faculty in unique ways, but the need for transparency and communication became more important than ever. To improve the student experience, faculty should consider adapting their strategies to accommodate the online space. Using critical analysis, this piece addresses specific steps faculty can take to improve the transition toward online teaching. These steps include increased access to the instructor and online learning materials, adapting course materials and syllabi, and acceptance of perceived failure.

Attention To Students

AbstractTahsin Quran is a method of learning to read the Quran that strives to increase the reader's ability to adhere to the guidelines established (tajwid). In tahsin Quran learning, teachers must pay close attention to students' letter pronunciation in the Quran, ideally face-to-face or in sync. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has necessitated online learning, requiring some alterations to its application. The purpose of this study was to determine how students respond to online Quran learning conducted virtually in one of South Tangerang's Quran learning facilities. Students are given questionnaires about instructor competencies, the substance of learning materials, and the efficiency of tahsin online learning, which are reinforced by an interview with one of the teachers, an institution member, and students. The results indicated that, based on student answers, the institution's implementation of tahsin Quran online learning has been highly successful, with some notes and inputs to consider to improve the quality of Quran online learning in the future.AbstrakTahsin Al-Qur’an merupakan pembelajaran membaca Al-Qur’an yang bertujuan untuk memperbaiki bacaan Al-Qur’an agar sesuai dengan kaidah (tajwid) yang ditetapkan. Dalam pembelajaran tahsin Al-Qur’an, guru atau instruktur perlu memperhatikan ketepatan tiap siswanya dalam melafalkan huruf dalam Al-Qur’an sehingga pembelajaran idealnya dilakukan secara tatap muka atau sinkron. Namun pandemi COVID-19 mengharuskan pembelajaran dilaksanakan secara daring sehingga membutuhkan beberapa penyesuaian dalam pelaksanaannya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meneliti bagaimana respon siswa pembelajaran tahsin Al-Qur’an online yang dilaksanakan secara virtual di salah satu lembaga pembelajaran Al-Qur’an di Tangerang Selatan. Kuesioner mengenai kemampuan guru, isi materi pembelajaran, dan efektifitas pembelajaran tahsin yang dilaksanakan secara online diberikan kepada siswa yang kemudian hasilnya dilengkapi dengan hasil wawancara kepada salah satu guru, pihak lembaga, dan siswa. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa berdasarkan respon siswa pembelajaran tahsin Al-Qur’an online yang dilaksanakan di lembaga tersebut telah berjalan sangat baik dengan beberapa catatan dan masukan yang perlu diperhatikan untuk peningkatan kualitas pembelajaran tahsin Al-Qur’an daring yang akan datang.How to Cite: Shabrina, R., Chaeruman, U.

<p>Providing students with contemporary, up-to-date listening experiences in L2 is an ongoing challenge for language educators. Indeed, much commercially available material is dated or presents language in an idealised and decontextualised way. Audiostreaming provides a wealth of resources which may go some way towards resolving these issues. Contemporary teaching and learning materials on an extremely wide range of topics are easily downloaded from national radio station websites and are accessible via systems such as podcasting. This paper discusses one attempt at integrating these resources into tertiary language courses and demonstrates how these can be easily and efficiently integrated into meaningful online learning tasks. In addition, we discuss the complex issue of copyright and online materials in Australia, UK (Europe) and the US.</p>
