With the widespread use of learning analytics tools, there is a need to explore how these technologies can be used to enhance teaching and learning. Little research has been conducted on what human processes are necessary to facilitate meaningful adoption of learning analytics. The research problem is that there is a lack of evidence-based guidance on how instructors can effectively implement learning analytics to support students with the purpose of improving learning outcomes. The goal was to develop and validate a model to guide instructors in the implementation of learning analytics tools. Using design and development research methods, an implementation model was constructed and validated internally. Themes emerged falling into the categories of adoption and caution with six themes falling under adoption including: LA as evidence, reaching out, frequency, early identification/intervention, self-reflection, and align LA with pedagogical intent and three themes falling under the category of caution including: skepticism, fear of overdependence, and question of usefulness.  The model should enhance instructors’ use of learning analytics by enabling them to better take advantage of available technologies to support teaching and learning in online and blended learning environments. Researchers can further validate the model by studying its usability (i.e., usefulness, effectiveness, efficiency, and learnability), as well as, how instructors’ use of this model to implement learning analytics in their courses affects retention, persistence, and performance.

Higher Order Thinking Skill (HOTS) is a demanded strategy to be applied in any teaching activities, including English teaching and learning process. This HOTS application offers attainable learning outcomes to the teachers when conducting teaching activities. Teachers are able to see how far students can learn based on cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspect. However, there were problems which teachers found and challenged them to encounter the problems to keep the implementation of HOTS successful. This research was carried out to figure out teacher’s self-reflection on problems found and to determine decisions how to encounter them. In line to the research purpose, a qualitative research design was applied within interview and questionnaire. Furthermore, based on teacher’s reflection, it was revealed that during learning activities the students acted unmotivated and lack of confidence; they lacked English interest; and HOTs was not applied properly based on its stages. Then, decision making was established in terms of teaching strategies and lesson planning. In conclusion, despite the importance of creating HOTS to invite students to be creative and critical, problems still remained. Thus, self-reflection did assist teacher to analyze and figure out what teaching weaknesses are and imply to the HOTS application to improve teaching and learning process.

Teaching and learning is a bilateral process and students’ learning outcomes depend to a large extent on the motivation and performance of each individual teacher in the classroom and on the activities of all school teachers. Teacher's ability to evaluate and plan teaching and learning is one of the most important professional skills because systematic evaluation, planning and re-evaluation are an integral part of learning and maximization of development, which makes teaching effective and provides students with a profound understanding and competence. These are the means by which it can be ascertained that the results achieved are in line with national and local educational requirements. The paper analyzes the teachers' understanding of effective teaching and their skills to evaluate the teaching/learning process and to plan effective teaching as well as the need to improve teachers’ evaluation and planning skills.

This study aims to describe the learning implementation model during the COVID-19 pandemic at SD Muhammadiyah 3 Pandaan. The research was conducted at SD Muhammadiyah 3 Pandaan City with one of the teachers as resource persons. This research uses descriptive qualitative research. The results of this study are observations of learning models at SD Muhammadiyah 3 Pandaan during the covid-19 pandemic. Learning that is usually carried out in person is now being shifted to distance learning or daring. In the implementation of learning during this pandemic, appropriate and effective learning models are needed to support the success of the teaching and learning process. The application of the learning model is one of the main factors in the learning process. This is because when applying the appropriate learning model, the learning process and learning outcomes will be as expected. There are several factors that support teachers in the learning process, namely the availability of mobile phones, quotas and a stable internet network. In addition to the factors that support bold learning, there are also several inhibiting factors for teachers in bold learning. The inhibiting factors include not all students have cellphones and there are still many parents who are busy working.

Learner Engagement

Student engagement is one of the most relevant topics within the academic and research community nowadays. Higher education curriculum, teaching and learning integrate new technology- supported learning solutions. New methods and tools enhance teacher and learner interactions and influence learner engagement positively. This research addresses the need to explore new ways of improving teaching practices to better engage students with the help of learning analytics. The paper investigates how university teachers use the data from learning analytics to observe learners and to engage them in online learning. Qualitative inquiry was chosen to approach the research problem, and semi-structured interviews with the teachers using (blended) online learning were conveyed to explore teacher practices in students’ behaviour and engagement observations online, disclosing teachers’ abilities to understand the challenging learner engagement process based on the data from learning analytics. The new evidence provided by this research highlights the successful practices in the use of learning analytics data to observe students’ behaviour and engagement and to inform teachers on the presence needed in order to develop learner–centred activities and to make curriculum changes. The limitation of this study lies in the fact that the different online teaching experiences that research participants had might have restricted their understanding of the use of LA data for curriculum development and learners’ engagement.

Learning analytics have great potential to support students’ learning process and instructors’ learning design, specially when presented as a visualization, visual-form LA, designed in conjunction with student reflections.  This presentation represents a multi-year mixed-methods study that collected students learning analytics from participation in retrieval practice activities, low-stake quizzes, and presented this data as visual-from LA to help students to be cognizant of and reflect on their learning practices in order to improve retention and  recall by implementing high impact learning practices. Quantitative and qualitative data was collected, analyzed, and integrated to generate insights regarding the impact of the design on students’ study behaviors and students’ self-awareness of these behaviors.  Findings suggest that the integration is successful in developing autonomous learners that more often recognize and implement effective learning behaviors.

Learning to program requires the development of multiple skills including critical thinking, problem-solving, as well as learning the syntax and semantics of the programming language. For novices, to acquire all these skills is considered a challenging and difficult task. They have to focus on both problem-solving strategies and the syntax and semantics of the programming language to acquire these skills. In this study, this article compares the current teaching and learning approach of an introductory programming (IP) course with the six categories of Bloom's taxonomy. The assurance of learning (AOL) process was incorporated in the IP course to assess students' learning outcomes on the basis of achiever (high, medium and low) and performance (very good, good enough and not good enough) categories. The results showed that the current teaching and learning approach of the IP course addressed all the six categories of Bloom's taxonomy. Most of the students (63%) fall under the medium achiever category. Moreover, 50% students learning outcomes come under ‘not good enough' performance category.

<em>The background of this research problem is that teachers have not been able to maximize the use of media, especially learning media. This raises various problems for students such as students who are less interested in paying attention to the explanations given by the teacher, students look bored, and in the end students are less active in participating in the teaching and learning process in class and the science learning outcomes of grade V students of SDN Kedalon 01 are low. This study aims to improve student science learning outcomes and describe the use of instructional media in accordance with learning objectives. This type of classroom action research consists of 2 cycles, each cycle consisting of 1 meeting. The research subjects of the fifth grade students of SD N Kedalon 01 were 21 students. The data collection instrument used tests and non-tests. The research instrument was in the form of multiple choice test questions, observation sheets and observations. The results showed an increase in student learning outcomes. The increase in student learning outcomes seen from the classical average value, in cycle I was 76.19%, and cycle II increased to 86%, and cycle III increased to 90%. So the instructional video media can improve students' mathematics learning outcomes. Teachers can apply instructional video media to improve science learning outcomes. Teachers must be able to apply learning models and media that can increase interest and motivation of students in learning</em>

AbstractActive learning is a promising teaching approach that can develop sustainability competences in learners. In this paper, we investigate the potential of active-learning pedagogies such as serious games and active-learning toolkits to deliver sustainability knowledge and skills in materials education. We organised a workshop for 20 participants from UK Universities where they played the serious game In the Loop around critical materials and circular economy and engaged in the Active-Learning ToolKit Sustainable Development (Granta Design/now Ansys UK Ltd.) to assess the sustainability of a proposed policy intervention around the use of electric cars. We used a self-assessment questionnaire and reflection sessions to deduce the level of sustainability skill developed by the participants as well as importance and performance analysis (IPA) to help the educators understand crucial components they should concentrate their teaching and learning efforts on in the future. Finally, we provide recommendations for educators on how to implement active learning in materials education in order to empower students with skills for sustainability. Graphical abstract

Abstract Background:The articulation of learning goals, processes and outcomes related to health humanities teaching currently lacks comparability of curricula and outcomes, and requires synthesis to provide a basis for developing a curriculum and evaluation framework for health humanities teaching and learning. This scoping review sought to answer, how, and why the health humanities are used in health professions education. It also sought to explore how health humanities curricula are evaluated and whether the programme evaluation aligns with the desired learning outcomes. Methods:A focused scoping review of qualitative and mixed-methods studies that included the influence of integrated health humanities curricula in pre-registration health professions education with programme evaluate of outcomes was completed. Studies of students not enrolled in a pre-registration course, with only ad-hoc health humanities learning experiences that were not assessed or evaluated were excluded. Four databases were searched (CINAHL), (ERIC), PubMed, and Medline.Results:The search over a 5 year period, identified 8,621 publications. Title and abstract screening, followed by full-text screening, resulted in 24 articles selected for inclusion. Learning outcomes, learning activities and evaluation data were extracted from each included publication. Discussion:Reported health humanities curricula focused on developing students’ capacity for perspective, reflexivity, self- reflection and person-centred approaches to communication. However the learning outcomes were not consistently described, identifying a limited capacity to compare health humanities curricula across programmes. A set of clearly stated generic capabilities or outcomes from learning in health humanities would be a helpful next step for benchmarking, clarification and comparison of evaluation strategy.

The research problem is the lack of motivation and attention of students in the teaching and learning process of Geography and the Component Display Theory (CDT) model has not been applied in Syaloom Christian High School in Manado City. This study aims to determine the effect of the CDT learning model in improving learning outcomes in the Geography subjects of Syaloom Christian High School students in Manado City. The results were analyzed by statistical t-test obtained by the value of t count = 11.896 giving a recommendation that the research hypothesis is different. This value explains the differences in the learning outcomes of students in the experimental group Geography with the CDT learning model better than the control group learning outcomes without using the CDT learning model when viewed from the average value. Therefore, the CDT learning model that was applied to the experimental group students had a positive effect on improving student learning outcomes in Geography subjects.
