Abstract BackgroundPhysical activity during pregnancy period is one of the issues with priority during pregnancy period. Researches show that women reduce their physical activity during this period and are unaware of the benefits on the health of the mother and embryology. Although researchers regarding physical activity during pregnancy have prepared many guidelines; it is not however clear why pregnant women do not perform physical activity and the effectiveness factors that facilitate the desired behavior. MethodsThe research population included all pregnant women aged 18 to 40 years with gestational age of 12-38 weeks referring to the healthcare centers in District 5 of Tehran Municipality, from 22 districts of the city who had eliminated their physical activity during pregnancy. Questionnaires of physical activity assessment questionnaire after educational intervention in pregnant women (PPAQ) and a questionnaire designed based on the results of the needs assessment and the dimensions of the PEN-3 model were used for assessment. This study is a Research Clinical Trial (RCT). Due to the nature, a quasi-experimental research design (pre-test, post-test) with the control group was used in this research. ResultsBased on the obtained results, the intervention based on E-learning has a significant effect of enabling factors to increase physical activity in pregnant women in the experimental group. In addition, the intervention based on E-learning has a significant effect on the training factors in order to increase physical activity in pregnant women in the experimental group. ConclusionBased on the research results, it can be said that there is a statistically significant difference between the experimental and control groups in the scores obtained from training factors in the pretest and the experimental group. Furthermore, it can be said that there is a statistically significant difference between the experimental and control groups in the scores obtained from the enabling factors in the pre-test and the experimental group.

La presente investigación estudia los efectos que dos herramientas relacionadas con la autorregulación del aprendizaje tienen sobre el logro académico, las conexiones por día y el tiempo de dedicación al estudio. Un total de 260 estudiantes de formación profesional cuyo aprendizaje se desarrolla en línea fueron asignados de forma aleatoria a tres grupos: un grupo interactuaba en un aula virtual a cuya estructura se le había añadido una herramienta que muestra una barra de progreso con las tareas a realizar durante el curso (n=67); otro grupo interactuaba en un aula virtual al que se le añadía tanto la barra de progreso como una herramienta que estima el tiempo dedicación al estudio (n=75); y el grupo de control interactuaba sin ninguna herramienta añadida con respecto a las que se trabaja habitualmente en el aula virtual (n=118). Se realizaron análisis factoriales ANOVA y MANOVA. Los resultados muestran que no existe una diferencia significativa en el logro académico entre grupos, independientemente del tipo del aula virtual en la que interactúen. Sin embargo, existen diferencias significativas en el tiempo de dedicación y en las conexiones diarias entre grupos, dependiendo del tipo de aula virtual empleado. Como conclusión, los estudiantes del grupo en el que se incluye la barra de progreso mejoran su eficiencia, ya que obtienen un logro académico similar al resto de estudiantes en aproximadamente la mitad de tiempo. The present research studies the effects that two tools related to self-regulated have on the academic achievement, the connections per day and the time of dedication to the study. A total of 260 vocational training e-learning students was randomly assigned to three groups: one group interacted in a virtual classroom in which a tool showing a progress bar with the tasks to be completed during the course was added (n=67); another group interacted in a virtual classroom in which both the progress bar and a tool that estimates the dedication time to the study was added (n=75); and the control group interacted without any extra tool added in the virtual classroom (n=118). ANOVA and MANOVA factor analysis were performed. The results show that there is no significant difference in academic achievement between groups, regardless of the type of the virtual classroom in which they interact. However, there are significant differences in the dedication time to the study and in the daily connections between groups, depending on the type of the virtual classroom was used. It is therefore concluded that the group in which the progress bar is included enhaces efficiency, because students obtain similar academic achievements in approximately half the time.

Education prepares one for the world of work; hence, the adoption of the innovative instructional approach employed in the process of teaching and learning is key to the attainment of this goal. To mitigate students’ poor achievement in computer programming (CP), innovative pedagogy (IP) was adopted to make students become active learners in classroom learning. In this study, a quasi-experimental design was used and nonrandomized the subject with pretest and posttest. Students (N = 145) were nonrandomized to the treatment and control groups. The researchers conducted a repeated measure of analysis of variance to determine the change between the experimental and control groups. Students’ attributes were tested for differences by comparing categorical data with chi-square statistics. The interaction effect was determined using an analysis of covariance. The results revealed that the experimental group’s CP achievement test results outperformed those of the control group at posttest and retention tests. Furthermore, the findings of the study show that there is no significant difference in students’ academic achievement across ability levels and gender. Also, there is no interaction between the pretest and the IP. The study, therefore, recommends that computer educators should adopt innovative teaching practices in their day-to-day teaching since it is more creative, learner-centered, and improved student engagement.
