Networked learning Community (NLC)  that integrates a professional context into the learning experience that uses learning networks to promote self-efficacy and professional development. Online Learning design integrates three techniques: focus on developing personal learning networks, live streaming and online based learning communities and immersive skills and experience mastery for professionals. The hypothesis is that networked learning community among peers in the online learning will help support skills development and confidence in sustainable use of the platform in a personalized way. Meanwhile networking for learning with professionals will strengthen the impact of mastery experience on self-efficacy. Learning experiences as relevant for lifelong learning and professional success are important in today's learning era. NLC aligned with the goals of the 21st century skills movement can be an important mechanism for scaling up efforts to redesign academies that offer skills with a forum for broad but personal learning. The live streaming technique in the learning process in online media has a significant impact in monitoring and monitoring one-on-one learners' abilities. Learning outcomes can be easily corrected and evaluated by relevant experts so that the work can be used as a good portfolio. In the application of the  NLC the target output is that there is a promotion mechanism for students to the industrial world by bringing together professional companies and / or developing entrepreneurship with the addition of business training to the relevant NLC. The results of the platform development show that the flow and process of improving skills and professional learning with the community in one field of multimedia industry is getting better

Objectives: Exposure to radiology in undergraduate medical education is often restricted by other curriculum demands. Designing an effective radiology elective for medical students who choose to supplement their education can be challenging as it is often a passive observership-style elective. In this study, we examined the impact of incorporating an online learning platform and electronic book into radiology electives to stimulate active learning. Materials and Methods: We enrolled 23 students who pursued a 2-week diagnostic radiology elective at our institution. Their radiology knowledge prior to the elective was assessed using 2 pretests. Students had opportunities to work with radiologists to review clinical imaging, attend academic rounds, and learn from the online learning resources. Their knowledge after the elective was assessed by readministering the 2 tests as “posttests.” Students also ranked their perception of the elective experience and educational resources on a Likert scale from 1 to 5. Results: There were statistically significant increases of 13.4% ( P < .0001) in mean test 1 scores and 6.8% in mean test 2 scores ( P = .001). Students also had favorable perceptions of the radiology elective experience and rated the electronic book (median score: 5 of 5) and online learning platform (4.5 of 5) as valuable educational resources. Conclusion: The implementation of an electronic book and online learning platform improved knowledge in radiology and resulted in positive student perceptions of the elective experience. This supports the use of online resources to facilitate independent self-learning for future radiology electives.

         The impact of Covid-19 affects aspects of life, one of which is the education aspect. The government makes policies in the education sector by shifting the face-to-face learning process online. Online learning can be done with e-learning media. The type of e-learning that can be used in the learning process is edmodo. Edmodo is a web, iOS and Android-based learning platform that looks like Facebook and is easy to use for beginners. Edmodo-based e-learning media can be used in the online learning process after meeting the eligibility indicators of validity. The validity results can be obtained based on an assessment of the aspects contained in the validity indicator according to the 2008 Ministry of National Education criteria, namely the aspects of feasibility of content, language, presentation and, graphics. Various study findings regarding validity indicators in previous studies are difficult to accumulate in quantitative form. Researchers used meta-analysis methods to obtain validity results that were easily accumulated and systematic, so researchers used 8 relevant articles. Based on the analysis of the 8 articles, the results show that 4 articles have fulfilled the validity criteria according to the Ministry of National Education (2008), namely the aspects of the feasibility of content, language, presentation, and graphics. Meanwhile, 4 other articles have not used the validity criteria according to the 2008 Ministry of National Education This shows that the 8 articles analyzed, only 4 articles met the valid qualifications according to the 2008 Ministry of National Education criteria.

This study aims to determine the impact of the live broadcast application in online learning during the Covid-19 pandemic. The problem essence in this study is the processes, constraints, and variations in applying the live broadcast application to online learning during the Covid-19 pandemic. This study applied a qualitative study type. The participants in this study were students of the Indonesian Language and Literature department in the Faculty of Languages and Literature, Universitas Negeri Makassar, Indonesia, in 2019-2020. This study found that the learning media used in the teaching and learning process for a regular meeting during the Covid-19 pandemic as live broadcast application were Zoom, Google Meet, and Streamyard. However, students also experienced that some lecturers only used live broadcast for online examination regarding evaluating the students’ assignment progress submitted to Google Classroom. Students also reported that lecturers use live broadcast applications to teach and other applications, such as Google Classroom and LMS. This study also found out the constraints experienced by students regarding the learning process during the Covid-19 pandemic. This study revealed that the students experienced some constraints in the learning process during the Covid-19 pandemic, such as a large amount of data or quotas in use, the inadequate time provided by media of live broadcast, which is up to about forty minutes. Also, unsupportive signals always make weak audio sounds and sometimes close the application, making it difficult for students to comprehend the materials. Therefore, this study recommends that the lecturers maximize the teaching and learning process to anticipate time, place, and internet data packages as students’ constraints by recording the live broadcast in the form of YouTube live streaming.

The Impact

Online course delivery is rapidly growing among educational institutions all over the world, especially in Open and Distance Learning institutions. The frequent criticisms on distance education for having only limited interactions between teachers and students as opposed to traditional face to face teaching can be significantly minimized with the increased use of online methods, due to its unique instructional capabilities. Online learning provides ample opportunities for students learning at a distance to constantly interact with their teachers as well as peers, sharing experiences and working collaboratively. The creation of a sense of social presence is essential to establish a collaborative online learning environment, as it is a most important factor that helps people actively collaborate, thus increasing a sense of belonging to the learning community. The Faculty of Education of the Open University of Sri Lanka offered the online course, "Teacher Educator as an Educational Technologist" in December 2007, using the learning management system Moodle. The course was designed using a collaborative learning model, allowing adequate opportunities for the distant learners to actively engage in their learning process, engaging in a number of learning and assessment tasks with the support of learning resources and instructor guidance, while collaborating and sharing experiences among each other, mainly through discussion forums. Using the case study approach, an investigation was carried out to find out the specific strategies and techniques adopted by designers, instructors and students in enhancing community building among the participants in the online learning environment. It further explored the impact of community building on the distant learners, who were also novices to online learning. This paper discusses the development process in the building of an online learning community and emphasizes on the roles of designers, teachers, and learners.

Learners’ satisfaction plays a critical role in the success of online learning platform. Many factors that affect online learning satisfaction have been addressed by previous studies. However, the mechanisms by which these factors are associated with online learning satisfaction are not sufficiently clear. Moreover, the difference in the antecedents of online learning satisfaction between two use contexts- Mobile context and PC context, was rarely examined. Based on the Stimulus-Organism-Response (S-O-R) framework, we investigate the key factors (self-efficacy, social interaction, platform quality, teacher’s expertise) affecting flow and highlights its role in online learning satisfaction, which is empirically tested through an online survey of 333 online learners. Results show that self-efficacy, teacher’s expertise, platform quality, and social interaction positively affect online learning satisfaction through the mediation of flow. Use contexts not only moderate the relationship between flow and online learning satisfaction, but also between social interaction, platform quality, teacher’s expertise, and flow. These new findings expand educators with ways to increase flow, add to knowledge about the relationship between flow and online learning satisfaction and provide references for online learning platforms to enhance learners’ online learning satisfaction under multiple-version affordances.
