<![CDATA[This research was conducted to determine the student’s perception of e-learning in studying History in terms of material, teachers, learning environment, the students themselves, and the teacher's perception of e-learning in teaching History. The researchers employed a mixed-method design. Instruments of this research were questionnaire and interview guide. The questionnaire was used to collect quantitative data while interview guide for qualitative data. The questionnaire consists four aspects: material, teacher, learning environments, and students’ view. The subjects were 25 history teachers and 161 students of senior high school in Kendari City, Indonesia. The result found that students prefer to study face-to-face. They prefer that the material is taught directly by the teacher in class. Class conditions are comfortable and they can interact with teachers and friends. Students do not feel bored doing assignments from teachers during a pandemic. They like to summarize history assignments rather than memorizing the material. Most students complain about the conditions of studying from home. Network problems and not having facilities, such as laptops and smartphones are the main problems for online learning. History teachers assume that in implementing e-learning, they prefer asynchronous e-learning. History teachers mostly use e-learning applications, such as Google Classroom, WhatsApp, and YouTube. This study was expected to shed new light on the intriguing concept of students and teacher’s perception of e-learning on history learning.]]>

<![CDATA[Besides the economic impact and loss of jobs and revenues, COVID-19 have a great impact on the education sector, with several learning institutions across the world remaining shut down for months. This study evaluated the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on education. The study employed a cross-sectional study design in which data was collected using qualitative methods from various education stakeholders as well as secondary literature. The result showed that learning has severely been affected by the strict protocols adopted by various governments in response to COVID-19 pandemic. The major responses to COVID-19 like closing up schools have left most learners hopeless as they cannot afford the recommended online learning. The major responses to COVID-19 at the few operating schools include: wearing masks, hand sanitization, regular hand washing, constant temperature check for both staff and learners, and lastly change on the sitting arrangements as students are required to maintain a social distance of at least 1.5 meters. Moreover, closure of schools has also had a severe impact on the co-curricular activities that are always undertaken within the academic institutions like athletics, drama and ball games. Measures should be put in place by various governments to ensure that all learners have access to equitable, quality and inclusive forms of education during the present COVID-19 pandemic.]]>

<![CDATA[The expression of decency in communication triggers individual character in formation of national identity. Language decency always applies in Malay language education context during learning session. But, how far it can shape the generation’s identity is still vague. Aim of this research was to thorough the relationship of language education decency with language character among students in public and private universities. A survey was conducted on 380 students of several universities in Malaysia. The data were collected by using Google Form with cooperation from university representatives. The quantitative data was analyzed by using SPSS and AMOS software through correlation and regression analysis by structural equation modelling (SEM). Findings showed that the most decency form used by students was words with value β=.67, p=.000. Language decency education had contributed 80% of R2 value for language character among students. The prediction model of relationship between decency language and character language had achieved equivalence value which RMSEA=.067, GFI=.977, CFI=.995, TLI=.991 and Chisq/df=2.682. Therefore, factor of decency language that applies among students in Malay language course can contribute on generation with nice language character and strong national identity.]]>

<![CDATA[This paper introduces a set of extracted factors from Moodle log file of the selected course as a case study that aims to capture student Engagement (E), Behavior (B), Personality (Pers) and Performance (P). The factors are applied to identify students’ EBPersP with different course activities. The data set used in this paper was selected from the "Introduction to Computer Science" online course that captures 273,906 records as a log file for 29 students, delivered in Spring 2020. The paper also tries to show whether there is a relationship between student engagement, behavior and personality and their performance. Results show different patterns of students’ interactions with course contents, activities, and assessments. Specifically, our findings highlight that students' EBPersP could be extracted from Moodle log files. In addition, the extracted factors could assist instructors on how to focus more on students with low and average performance, giving them more attention to enhancing their performance. ]]>

<![CDATA[In this paper, the scientific sources analysis was presented. The peculiarities of the professional competence formation of the future patrol officers were determined. Moreover, the specifics of the service activity of patrol officers were considered. The original method for the formation of professional competence of modern police officers was substantiated and tested its effectiveness. The essence of this methodology was to introduce simulated situational tasks, aimed at forming the professional skills and abilities of future police officers. The pedagogical experiment involved students of the primary vocational training course applied in 2018 (n=183) who were studying at the center of primary vocational training “Police Academy” of the National Academy of Internal Affairs (Kyiv, Ukraine). An experimental (EG, n=93) and control (CG, n=90) group were formed. Cognitive and operational criteria evaluated the efficiency of the original methodology. The results of the pedagogical experiment indicated the greater efficiency of the original methods compared to the traditional one. A significant (р<0.05-0.001) improvement of the indicators “Knowledge of professional and practical course”, “Professional and practical skills formation” and “The effectiveness of solving scenarios” was designated. ]]>

<![CDATA[Virtual worlds are considered an additional proposal within the e-learning model. Online platforms have not been enough resources to be successful in the teaching and learning processes, therefore, it is necessary to search more options that contribute to their improvement. Virtual worlds, through inverse and visual experiences for the student, offer new panoramas that allow living situations and solving problems in different areas, such as mathematics. This article analyzes the opinion of higher-level students regarding the use of virtual worlds in their distance classes. Likewise, the virtual worlds provide help in improving teacher-student and student-student relationships. Some cases of educational institutions that integrated the use of virtual worlds into their classes are shown. A Likert-type scale questionnaire has been applied to a sample of 65 higher-level students. Its reliability was validated by means of Cronbach's alpha coefficients and Pearson's. It was found that students consider that the use of virtual worlds would improve class work and relationships between their peers and their teachers. It is remarkably undoubted that virtual worlds within education path are considered an excellent tool for e-learning. However, although the interest on the part of students is high, it is necessary to carry out more researching and developing procedures on the virtual worlds as an alternative to support learning. ]]>

<![CDATA[Language learning is the biggest challenge for students with dyslexia. Therefore, special education teachers play a pivotal role in assisting students with dyslexia to mitigate any difficulties in their language learning process. This study explored the perception of special education teachers in terms of their experience, challenges faced, and strategies adopted to assist students with dyslexia in the learning process. A semi-structured interview session was conducted with three participants from three primary schools under the Special Education Integration Program (SEIP) Dyslexia Program. The findings indicated that it was challenging for special education teachers to teach students with dyslexia because they lacked the effective teaching methods and resources. Based on their teaching experiences, students with dyslexia encountered difficulties in phoneme-grapheme associations, sound blending, and segmentation. Additionally, the participants perceive that the adoption of a multisensory approach and the utilisation of mobile learning applications are two effective strategies to improve the teaching of language to students with dyslexia. Lastly, this study provided vital findings to be used as research materials by other like-minded researchers in the future.]]>
