—This paper presents an ontology that integrates and provides knowledge related with Learning Objects design, with the intention of supporting the sequencing of learning objects. This ontology was built using an approach based on an ontological engineering methodology and data mining techniques for automatic acquisition of knowledge. The knowledge obtained is represented by the OWL ontology lan...

During the pandemic crises, online learning has moved from margin to centre of education, thus making a change in educational paradigm. The degrees technology acceptance, therefore, pose major challenge administrators, educators, and students, including lifelong learners all fields work. This paper aims investigate how acceptance facilitates learners’ continuing intention. By constructing struc...

The tremendous development of technologies over recent decades has offered many e-learning systems to faculty educators to support teaching. The advantage of using such systems in connection with on-site courses is that it increases flexibility in teaching/learning by making resources available online. However, there is little empirical evidence to suggest which factors shape educators’ continu...

The process of transmitting ballet's complex technique to young dancers can interfere with the innate processes that give rise to efficient, expressive and harmonious movement. With the intention of identifying possible solutions, this article draws on research across the fields of neurology, psychology, motor learning, and education, and considers their relevance to ballet as an art form, a te...

The reasoned action approach, although ubiquitous in health behavior theory (e.g., Theory of Reasoned Action/Planned Behavior), does not adequately address two key dynamical aspects of health behavior: learning and the effect of immediate social context (i.e., social influence). To remedy this, we put forth a computational implementation of the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) using artificial-n...

As the use of Information Technology (IT) applications has become more widespread, focus has turned toward applying IT to the learning domain, with policy initiatives aimed at integrating IT with teaching. E-Portfolios have assumed growing importance in higher education as institutions seek new teaching–learning–assessment tools to increase learner autonomy in virtual learning environments. Bas...

Abstract—The proliferation in the development of mobile learning (m-learning) has played a vital role in the rapidly growing electronic learning market. This relatively new technology can help to encourage the development of in learning and to aid knowledge transfer a number of areas, by familiarizing students with innovative information and communications technologies (ICT). M-learning plays a...

BACKGROUND General practitioners (GP) update their knowledge and skills by participating in continuing medical education (CME) programs either in a traditional or an e-Learning format. GPs' beliefs about electronic format of CME have been studied but without an explicit theoretical framework which makes the findings difficult to interpret. In other health disciplines, researchers used theory of...

Aims: The aim of this research is to investigate the factors affecting the intention towards using e-learning in a Jordanian university, through an extension of the technology acceptance model (TAM). Place and Duration of Study: Amman University College between May and July 2013. Study Design: Adapted theoretical framework. This study incorporates perceived system quality and perceived self-eff...
