Inculcating a safety focused mindset is an important part of an engineering education, as highlighted by the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board curriculum requirement to cover occupationalhealth and safety. Despite the importance of coveringsafety related material, many university faculty arehesitant to cover elements of safety management due tounfamiliarity with the material. In response, MinervaSafety Management Education has developed teachingmodule slide sets covering a wide range of safetymanagement topics that are freely available forinstructors to use in their classes.In this paper, we report on the next phase ofmodule deployment: the transformation of a slide set intoan electronically facilitated, self-contained, independentlearning module. This new format includes narratedlessons and automatic grading of comprehension tests.The format removes the time burden from instructors andteaching assistants, while enabling students to absorb thematerial at their own pace outside of class instructionalhours. The module is designed to be compatible withexisting learning management systems and easilyincorporated into existing course websites. We reportstudent feedback on this new format and share findingsapplicable to the development and conversion of futureself-contained electronic learning modules.

It is almost impossible to perform academic activities, such as accessing study material or contacting lecturers and other teaching and learning processes, at an open distance learning institution without the use of computers and the internet. This article investigates and reports on the time taken by students with and without disabilities to complete certain tasks using the University of South Africa's learning management systems (LMS). The findings of the study indicate that the time taken by students with disabilities to finish tasks is much longer compared to the students without disabilities. The study established that well-developed e-learning platforms guarantee efficient and effective use by both students with and without disabilities. The study suggests that it is significant for all LMS stakeholders to be involved in the development of e-learning websites. This is to ensure that accessibility and usability of these websites are adhered to during the development of e-learning websites.

In order to increase the utilization of learning resources and produce interchangeable components, a novel communication model is proposed. The model utilizes SCORM to standardize the learning contents and learning management systems and specify the behaviors of the learning contents independent of the learning management system used. At the same time, the model utilizes SOAP to increase interoperability within the wide range of programs and environments. By doing this, different learning groupwares and learning management systems can be integrated.

Learning Management

Electronic learning management systems provide live environments for students and faculty members to connect with their institutional online portals and perform educational activities virtually. Although modern technologies proactively support these online sessions, students’ active participation remains a challenge that has been discussed in previous research. Additionally, one concern for both parents and teachers is how to accurately measure student performance using different attributes collected during online sessions. Therefore, the research idea undertaken in this study is to understand and predict the performance of the students based on features extracted from electronic learning management systems. The dataset chosen in this study belongs to one of the learning management systems providing a number of features predicting student’s performance. The integrated machine learning model proposed in this research can be useful to make proactive and intelligent decisions according to student performance evaluated through the electronic system’s data. The proposed model consists of five traditional machine learning algorithms, which are further enhanced by applying four ensemble techniques: bagging, boosting, stacking, and voting. The overall F1 scores of the single models are as follows: DT (0.675), RF (0.777), GBT (0.714), NB (0.654), and KNN (0.664). The model performance has shown remarkable improvement using ensemble approaches. The stacking model by combining all five classifiers has outperformed and recorded the highest F1 score (0.8195) among other ensemble methods. The integration of the ML models has improved the prediction ratio and performed better than all other ensemble approaches. The proposed model can be useful for predicting student performance and helping educators to make informed decisions by proactively notifying the students.

Un grupo de profesores de educación de las ingenierías que tomaron parte en un curso introductorio en Cuba sobre el uso de Sistemas de Administración del Aprendizaje (LMS, por sus siglas en inglés) opinaron sobre el futuro del uso del LMS. Las respuestas sugieren que los profesores, aún con poca experiencia manejando LMS, creyeron que en el futuro podrían beneficiarse con el uso de un LMS y que están preparados para usar los programas tan pronto como hayan sido adecuadamente entrenados y tengan suficiente acceso a computadoras e internet. Se recalca que la posibilidad de mejorar la eficiencia, calidad y acceso a la educación mediante el uso de LMS depende de que el sistema sea completamente implementado. En base a lo encontrado en esta investigación los autores recomiendan que las universidades de países en vías de desarrollo tomen acciones inmediatas para dar a sus profesores el entrenamiento en el manejo de LMS y los incentiven para usar extensivamente el LMS tan pronto como haya suficiente acceso a computadores. El curso fue parte del proyecto USo+I Universidad, Sociedad e Innovación. Mejora de la pertinencia de la educación en las ingenierías de Latinoamérica; proyecto que es financiado por la Unión Europea dentro del programa ALFA III. La Universidad de Borås fue asignada para diseñar y dictar un curso de LMS para educadores de ingeniería en América Latina.

Current educational trends, globalization and the global Covid-19 pandemic have forced institutions of higher education (HEI) worldwide to accelerate the changes already in progress in teaching and learning approaches incorporating more technological enhanced learning. Among the wide range of information-communication-technology tools, the focus here is on Learning Management Systems (LMS), which play a major role in teaching and learning pedagogy, and can help HEIs to achieve more effective learning outcomes. This exploratory research examines the usage of Learning Management Systems to support the teaching of lexical chunks in the online English language classroom at HEIs. The investigation will focus on Moodle and will identify the factors that support students’ interaction with language content and input in this digital learning environment, by looking at the use of Moodle features and activities to teach and practice lexical chunks. Findings suggest that Moodle proves of great value for online English language teaching and the practice of lexical chunks, whereby quiz activities can be used to great effect, producing motivation to engage with lexical chunks among students.

The use of modules in learning aims so that students can learn independently without or with the guidance of the lecturer. There is no teaching material as a learning guide that meets the needs of students in IT-based mathematics learning courses in the form of LKM, Modules or textbooks.This study aims at finding and examining further the response of students to ICT-based mathematics learning modules. The form of this research is descriptive research. The research subjects of the even semester students are 2018/2019 in ICT-based mathematics learning courses. The instrument used was a student response questionnaire. Data collection techniques using a Likert scale through Google Form. The data was processed using Microsoft Excel 2010. The results showed that student’s responses to the ICT-based mathematics learning module as a whole were positive with an average on the material Aspects, the Interest Aspects of the module and the Module Aspects respectively of 92, 42%, 87 % and 93, 16%.. Thus it can be concluded that ICT-based mathematics learning using modules can be applied.
