Abstract This research aims to explore and investigate potential factors influencing students’ academic achievements and satisfaction with using online learning platforms. This study was constructed based on Transactional Distance Theory (TDT) and Bloom’s Taxonomy Theory (BTT). This study was conducted on 243 students using online learning platforms in higher education. This research utilized a quantitative research method. The model of this research illustrates eleven factors on using online learning platforms to improve students’ academic achievements and satisfaction. The findings showed that the students’ background, experience, collaborations, interactions, and autonomy positively affected students’ satisfaction. Moreover, effects of the students’ application, remembering, understanding, analyzing, and satisfaction was positively aligned with students’ academic achievements. Consequently, the empirical findings present a strong support to the integrative association between TDT and BTT theories in relation to using online learning platforms to improve students’ academic achievements and satisfaction, which could help decision makers in universities and higher education and colleges to plan, evaluate, and implement online learning platforms in their institutions.

The purpose of the study was to examine differences in parental involvement between two high schools that use the MASHOV program (an online learning management system) and one high school where parents receive updates regarding their children in other ways, with attention to parents' background variables: sex, income, and schooling. The study shows that the MASHOV has a positive impact on parental involvement – parents who use the MASHOV program consistently demonstrate a high and significant level of involvement compared to parents who do not have access to this program. Parent involvement was also found to have a positive effect on the child's academic achievements, where the higher the level of involvement the higher the evaluation of the student's achievements. Furthermore, a difference was found between parent involvement in the school by sex. Mothers received a higher score for involvement than fathers. No significant correlation was found between parents' schooling and involvement. The research findings show that the growing trend in recent years whereby computerized systems, and in particular the computerized MASHOV program used in high schools, are being integrated in many educational institutions in order to reach effective pedagogic management, is proving efficient and important.

The effect of the online learning environment designed with Gagné’s Instructional Activities Model on students’ academic achievements, attitudes, and retention of their learning was investigated using a mixed-method design. Purposive sampling was used to select 61 undergraduate students as participants. The participants were divided into two groups: one experimental group with the online learning environment designed with Gagné’s Instructional Activities Model and one control group with an online learning environment where the researcher does not intervene. The groups attended the same course content sessions that are suitable for their learning model over six weeks. Data were collected from undergraduates using three instruments which were academic achievement tests, course attitude scales, semi-structured interview form, and from experts using one instrument, which was rating scale. For analysis, descriptive statistics, independent group t-test, ANCOVA tests, and content analyses were performed. According to the findings of the study, students’ academic achievements and course attitude levels significantly increased in the online learning environment designed with Gagné’s Instructional Activities Model compared with an online learning environment where the researcher does not intervene. The qualitative findings of the study, Gagné’s online learning environment, a gradual model that allows learners to learn retention and that allows the learners to transform their learning into life, is a model that students often find useful and will also prefer to apply it in their professional lives. In this respect, the qualitative findings generally support quantitative findings because the experimental research results show that students learning online learning environments with Gagné’s principles are more successful, learnings are more permanent, and students’ attitudes toward the course are more positive. The results of this study show that various models, such as Gagné’s Instruction Activities Model in the online learning environment, have the potential to provide an alternative perspective to the teacher training system.

During the escalating coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, attempting to contain its spread, a large number of educational institutions shut down face-to-face teaching and learning activities globally due to a complete lockdown. This lockdown revealed emerging vulnerabilities of education systems in the low- and middle-income countries of the world, with Nigeria being no exception. Given these concerns, this research study assessed parental involvement, learning participation and the commitment to online learning of adolescent learners during the COVID-19 lockdown in Nigeria. An online survey questionnaire was employed to examine the level of online learning commitment and the contributory roles of each of the factors to online learning commitment of adolescent learners. In total, 1407 adolescents (male = 38.8%; female 61.2%) aged between 12 and 20 years (mean = 15: SD = 4.24) responded to the online survey, which was open for 2 months. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics of frequency distribution and inferential statistics of multiple regression. The findings revealed that the commitment level of adolescent learners to online learning was high. The findings further yielded a coefficient of R = 0.439 and R2 = 0.192 variance in the prediction of the outcome measure. Parental involvement contributed 32% (β = 0.322, p < 0.05) and learning participation contributed 23% (β = 0.234, p < 0.05) towards online learning. The study concludes that parental involvement and learning participation played a significant and positive role in the commitment of adolescent learners towards online learning during the COVID-19 lockdown in Nigeria. The authors suggest that parents be encouraged to synergise with the digitalised revolution, while the need for further in-depth research on the subject is emphasised in the suggestions for future research.

Flow Of Information

Abstract This writing takes the theme of the online learning process which is motivated by the Covid-19 pandemic situation by taking one of a series of learning processes, namely the learning evaluation process, where learning does not take place normally as usual. This results in changes in the delivery of information within the scope of learning which must be adapted to situations that cannot have a face-to-face, cannot gather in one room, and cannot interact directly with each other, but material information must continue with complete learning targets ). Therefore, this research is interesting to do because it aims to reveal patterns of information flows in learning activities during the Covid-19 pandemic. This research uses qualitative research with a phenomenological approach. This research took a research locus at MI Ma'arif Mangunsari, Salatiga City. Informants taken in this study were teachers, school principals and parents of students who were taken randomly. The results of this study indicate that first, the implementation of Mangunsari online learning in Salatiga City runs well without significant obstacles due to good planning in terms of teacher competence, materials, facilities and parental involvement, as well as the accuracy of selecting the facilities and infrastructure used in online learning. Second, the process of information flow in online learning forms a triangular pattern between teacher parents and students with the flow of information from teacher to parent through online media, parents to students offline, students to parents, then parents to teachers.  AbstrakPenulisan ini mengambil tema proses pembelajaran online yang dilatar belakangi oleh situasi pandemi Covid-19 dengan mengambil salah satu rangkaian proses pembelajaran yaitu proses evaluasi pembelajaran, dimana pembelajaran tidak berlangsung normal seperti biasanya. Hal ini mengakibatkan terjadinya perubahan penyampaian informasi dalam ruang lingkup pembelajaran yang harus disesuaikan dengan situasi tidak dapat bertatap muka, tidak dapat berkumpul dalam satu ruangan, dan tidak dapat saling berinteraksi secara langsung, namun informasi materi harus dilanjutkan dengan menyelesaikan target pembelajaran). Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini menarik untuk dilakukan karena bertujuan untuk mengungkap pola arus informasi dalam kegiatan pembelajaran pada saat pandemi Covid-19. Penelitian ini menggunakan jenis penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan fenomenologi. Penelitian ini mengambil lokus penelitian di  MI Ma’arif Mangunsari Kota Salatiga. Informan yang diambil dalam penelitian ini adalah guru, kepala sekolah dan orang tua siswa yang diambil secara acak. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pertama, pelaksanaan pembelajaran online Mangunsari di Kota Salatiga berjalan dengan baik tanpa kendala yang berarti dikarenakan perencanaan yang baik dari segi kompetensi guru, materi, fasilitas dan keterlibatan orang tua, serta ketepatan pemilihan fasilitas dan infrastruktur yang digunakan dalam pembelajaran online. Kedua, proses arus informasi dalam pembelajaran online membentuk pola segitiga antara orang tua guru dan siswa dengan arus informasi dari guru ke orang tua melalui media online, orang tua ke siswa secara offline, siswa ke orang tua, kemudian orang tua ke guru.

Number Of Children

With the change in the location of school education from the classroom to the home during the COVID-19 outbreak, there should be more educational caregiving from children’s parents when children learn online. Parental involvement in children’s online learning including study guide and psychological counseling is the specific content of educational caregiving, which is different from face-to-face learning. More attention should be paid to parental involvement and parents’ satisfaction with the online learning effect. This study therefore conducted a survey on middle school students’ parents to establish a moderating model, exploring the influence of parental involvement on parent satisfaction, and the number of children and parental education level as the moderator variables influencing parental involvement. The results show that there is a significant positive correlation between parental involvement and satisfaction, while the parental education level and the number of children both have a moderating effect on the relationship between parental involvement and parent satisfaction. The moderating effect of the education level of parents shows negative, while the moderating effect of the number of children is positive. An interesting finding is that the number of children has a very low influence on parental involvement.

Description Task

Purpose The study sets out to investigate inter- and intraspeaker variation in German infant-directed speech (IDS) and considers the potential impact that the factors gender, parental involvement, and speech material (read vs. spontaneous speech) may have. In addition, we analyze data from 3 time points prior to and after the birth of the child to examine potential changes in the features of IDS and, particularly also, of adult-directed speech (ADS). Here, the gender identity of a speaker is considered as an additional factor. Method IDS and ADS data from 34 participants (15 mothers, 19 fathers) is gathered by means of a reading and a picture description task. For IDS, 2 recordings were made when the baby was approximately 6 and 9 months old, respectively. For ADS, an additional recording was made before the baby was born. Phonetic analyses comprise mean fundamental frequency (f0), variation in f0, the 1st 2 formants measured in /i: ɛ a u:/, and the vowel space size. Moreover, social and behavioral data were gathered regarding parental involvement and gender identity. Results German IDS is characterized by an increase in mean f0, a larger variation in f0, vowel- and formant-specific differences, and a larger acoustic vowel space. No effect of gender or parental involvement was found. Also, the phonetic features of IDS were found in both spontaneous and read speech. Regarding ADS, changes in vowel space size in some of the fathers and in mean f0 in mothers were found. Conclusion Phonetic features of German IDS are robust with respect to the factors gender, parental involvement, speech material (read vs. spontaneous speech), and time. Some phonetic features of ADS changed within the child's first year depending on gender and parental involvement/gender identity. Thus, further research on IDS needs to address also potential changes in ADS.

Homework Completion

Purpose This study investigated the extent to which speech-language pathologists (SLPs) facilitate parents' completion of homework activities for children with speech sound disorder (SSD). In addition, this study explored factors related to more consistent communication about homework completion and strategies considered particularly effective for supporting this element of parental involvement. Method Licensed SLPs serving at least one child with SSD were invited to participate in an online survey. Questions relevant to this study gathered information regarding (a) frequency of communication about homework distribution and follow-up, (b) demographic and workplace characteristics, and (c) an open-ended question about the specific strategies used to support parental involvement and completion of homework activities. Results Descriptive results indicated considerable variability with respect to how frequently SLPs engaged in communication about homework completion, but that school-based SLPs were significantly less likely to engage in this type of follow-up. Strategies considered effective, however, were similar across therapy contexts. Conclusion These results suggest potentially important differences between school-based services and therapy in other contexts with respect to this particular aspect of service provision for children with SSD.
