This study aims to determine the effect of lecturer competence and commitment on their teaching performance during the Covid-19 pandemic which was remotely (online) carried out through the e-learning website. The respondents were 80 permanent lecturers of the faculty of teacher training and education. A quantitative approach with ex post facto study design and path analysis with SPSS v.21 was used. The results showed that the competence variable had a higher influence of 14.5% while commitment was 7.8%. Therefore, 30.9% determined their teaching performance during the Covid-19 pandemic from the contribution of competence and commitment, while 69.1% was from other variables outside the study.

In the context of the current COVID-19 pandemic, e-learning represents a more and more important concern of all education providers and an inevitable direction for the current context in training and education. This chapter follows the theory of gamified learning and the theory of flow to understand to which extent game characteristics improve engagement and learning outcomes, such as performance and engagement. To do this, two groups of learners (N=20) were randomly assigned: the experimental group followed a gamified learning module, and the control group followed the same content without gamification mechanisms. The game mechanisms chosen involve a game, a challenge, virtual rewards, an avatar, a final badge, and a system of points and levels. Results show that the gamified course increased the time spent on the course and the overall performance. Hence, this chapter demonstrates the relevance of using gamification to improve learning outcomes.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to highlight the importance of coherent alignment of current theory from cognitive psychology with practice and policy in training and education institutions developing e-learning materials and present recommendations emphasising the human factor within processes. Design/methodology/approach – In this paper a recent empirical study which applies current theory from cognitive psychological and multimodal learning research provides the backdrop to discussion about alignment of strategic vision, through policy, to effective practice. Findings – Despite advances in cognitive psychology which can be applied to targeting effective and measurable training and education, many institutions fail to maintain updated e-learning strategy and policy resulting in a negative impact on practice and the learner experience. Practical implications – The model presented in this paper is intended to promote thoughtful discussion about the processes and framework necessary for improved collaboration and communication supported by ongoing evaluation of institutional e-learning policy such that policy becomes a dynamic process congruent with developments in the learning sciences. Social implications – The paper includes recommendations for a refined view of knowledge, skills, and attitudes and alignment of policy with practice and theory and will be of interest to training and education institutions seeking to review their policies for training needs analysis and e-learning. Originality/value – This paper offers an up-to-date view of training needs analysis and multimedia design for training discrete psychomotor skills. It will be of value to organisations and institutions providing training and education mediated by technology as well as those involved in the design of training interventions.

Norway's Rogaland Kurs og Kompetansesenter (Rogaland Training and Education Centre), serving the whole of the Rogaland County region, has developed an innovative method of providing vocational training to local industry through the formal education system. The courses offered range from secondary school to postgraduate level. Provision has been enhanced through e-learning based on experiences with the Internet gathered in research projects involving schools, higher education and industry – these projects are described in the paper. The author sees great potential in the model that has been developed for providing vocational training to industry in the region. The main challenges for the future are to make this a generally applicable model, so that it can be used in other regions of Norway, and to encourage cooperation among regions in course delivery.

Σκοπός της εργασίας είναι η διερεύνηση της επίδρασης της εξ αποστάσεως εκπαίδευσης στη διαδικασία επιμόρφωσης των εν ενεργεία Εκπαιδευτικών Πρωτοβάθμιας και Δευτεροβάθμιας Εκπαίδευσης. Έγινε καταγραφή των απόψεων μετά από τη συμμετοχή τους σε προγράμματα εξ αποστάσεως επιμόρφωσης. Το 4ο Περιφερειακό Κέντρο Εκπαιδευτικού Σχεδιασμού (ΠΕΚΕΣ) Κ. Μακεδονίας σε συνεργασία με το «itlab» εργαστήρι πληροφορικής του Διεθνούς Πανεπιστημίου Ελλάδος (ΔΙ.ΠΑ.Ε.) ανταποκρινόμενο στις απαιτήσεις των εκπαιδευτικών για συνέχιση των εξ αποστάσεως επιμορφωτικών προγραμμάτων του σχολικού έτους 2017-2018 υλοποίησε τέσσερα (4) προγράμματα εξ αποστάσεως επιμόρφωσης, με χρήση της πλατφόρμας ασύγχρονης εκπαίδευσης OpeneClass και της πλατφόρμας σύγχρονης εκπαίδευσης BigBlueButton. Με την ολοκλήρωση σε καθένα από τα προγράμματα υλοποιήθηκε έρευνα με ερωτηματολόγια ερωτήσεων κλειστού και ανοικτού τύπου μέσω της πλατφόρμας, ώστε να καταγραφούν οι στάσεις, οι απόψεις και οι προτάσεις των εκπαιδευτικών για την εμπειρία τους κατά την διάρκεια της τηλεπιμόρφωσης καθώς και τα συμπεράσματά τους για την υλοποίηση εξ αποστάσεως επιμορφώσεων γενικότερα. Έγινε αποτίμηση και επισκόπηση των απαιτούμενων εκπαιδευτικών πόρων στην εφαρμογή εξ αποστάσεως εκπαίδευσης. The aim of this program is to investigate the impact of distance learning on teachers training processes of education of primary and secondary teachers in active education. Τhe opinions of the Teachers were recorded, after their attendance of distance learning courses. The 4th PEKES of Central Macedonia in collaboration with the ITlab Computer Lab of the International Hellenic University in response to the demands of teachers for the continuation  distance learning programs of last scholar year (2017-2018) realized four distance learning programs. The courses were developed on the OpeneClass asynchronous training platform, supported by the synchronous BigBlueButton training platform. Α questionnaire of closed-ended questions was answered through the platform in order to capture the opinions of the teachers for their experience of the online training. The required educational resources in distance learning implementation were evaluated and reviewed.

[MAINTAINING THE QUALITY OF LEARNING DATA PROCESSING PRACTICUM IN SUBJECT OF TRAINING DATA ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION]. Online learning during the SARS-CoV2 virus pandemic is a necessity in order to avoid the spread of the virus. But in its implementation, it becomes a challenge, especially in practicum learning. The implementation of online training is a response to the situation and conditions in the SARS-CoV2 virus pandemic which forces classical training to migrate to online training. The purpose of this study was conducted to find out what factors support the achievement of learning objectives, in classical learning, e-learning, and whether the learning strategies that have been applied in e-learning can maintain the quality of training. The instrument in this study was an assessment of the evaluation of learning from participants for the facilitator, on 3 waves of classical PPJFP and 3 waves of PPJFP e-learning, with a total of 126 training participants as respondents. Data processing and analysis were carried out by simple regression analysis, to find out the factors that influence the achievement of learning objectives; as well as an independent sample t-test to compare classical learning methods (face to face) and e-learning. The results showed that the systematic presentation of learning materials and the ability to present the material were the spearheads in the achievement of face-to-face learning. In synchronous learning through the E-learning Platform, aspects of how the facilitator answers questions are important points in learning through e-learning; and e-learning at the syncronus stage is able to maintain the quality of learning.
