Online Distance

The distance-learning and online courses and programmes are popular during the COVID-19 Pandemic due to the recommendation of social distancing and closure of borders in Australia. The purpose of this study is to explore and understand the motivation and decision-making processes of international students who continue their academic courses and programmes using online distance-learning platforms under the COVID-19 Pandemic. With the case study design, the researcher recruited 20 international students who are currently completing their academic courses and programmes through distance-learning from a Technical and Future Education (TAFE) institution in Australia. Based on the Social Cognitive Career and Motivation Theory, the researcher categorised that the educational achievements and career goals, the achievements of education and career goals, and interests in career development drove the factors of their motivation and career-decision-making process. The results of this study will provide a blueprint for school leaders, department heads, government agencies, policymakers, and researchers to reform and upgrade the current curriculum for technologically-assisted teaching and learning strategies and international students’ experiences.   Received: 16 June 2021 / Accepted: 11 August 2021 / Published: 5 November 2021

This case study presents an evaluation of an online, distance-learning, postgraduate peer tutor project, covering the pilot and post-pilot years 2013-15. The project has two core aims: first, to develop student academic skills in group facilitation and learning support; second, to enhance support for increasing numbers of online, distance-learning students by facilitating more live sessions and providing postgraduate study advice. Feedback from staff, peer tutors and the students involved suggests that peer tutoring is successful in improving distance learners’ experience through enhanced support and fostering a sense of community; for the peer tutors, the opportunities to develop graduate skills in tutoring and collaborating as part of the academic community.

The article presents the organization of remote online training for students of the Institute of Physical Culture and Sports of the North-Eastern Federal University (IFCiS NEFU) and the Churapchinsky State Institute of Physical Culture and Sports (CHIPCIS) by means and technologies of online distance learning for the period of the worldwide quarantine due to COVID-19 (April 2020-April 2021). These events affected all areas of higher education in conditions of self-isolation and quarantine measures in the use of distance learning at all levels of education. The experiment involved 220 students from the two above-mentioned physical education universities in Yakutia. The study was conducted using the survey method developed by one of the authors of the article, taking into account the specifics of the organization of online learning in the regional education system with statistical processing of the data of the research results. The authors substantiate the practical significance of the study in the context of the organization of online distance learning using software tools and a distance learning platform in the regional system of physical education. The materials of the article are of practical value for teachers and researchers on the problems of training teachers and teachers in the field of e-learning implementation, taking into account the scientific and methodological support of the educational process

In thematic analysis, themes construction can be performed manually by the researcher or automatically by a computer. Both methods have strengths and weaknesses. This article introduces a strategy that involves the role of both researcher and computer to construct themes from qualitative data in a rapid, transparent, and rigorous manner. The strategy makes use of network analysis and is demonstrated by employing a case study on students’ perceptions of online distance learning they experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic. The themes-construction strategy consists of four systematic phases, namely (1) determining unit of analysis and coding; (2) constructing the code co-occurrence matrix; (3) conducting network analysis; and (4) generating, reviewing, and reporting the themes. The strategy is successfully demonstrated in generating themes from the data with modularity value Q = 0.34. The application of network analysis in this strategy allows researchers to automatically generate themes from qualitative data using mathematical algorithms, represent these themes visually using network graph, and interpret the themes to answer the research questions.
