Teaching a large class can present real challenges in design, management and standardisation of assessment practices. One the main dilemmas for university teachers is how to implement effective formative practices with accompanying high-quality feedback consistently over time classroom groups. This article reports on elements be implemented as part summative very undergraduate cohorts (n = 1500 one semester), studying different modes (on- off-campus), multiple markers, under common cost...
Abstract Help-seeking is an essential self-regulatory and metacognitive skill. In the online learning environment, much of self-directed there are generally less opportunities to receive help in real time. The uses email discussion boards most common method seeking these environments. current study explored students’ perceptions use live chat technology for academic help-seeking within higher education, with a focus on comparing blended learners’ perspectives. Participants were 246 students...
According to Bandura's theory of reciprocal determinism, self-efficacy and academic achievement can have a mutual influence over one another. While empirical research generally supports this position, little focus has been given within- between-person factors that may moderate relationship. The present study explored how initial performance task difficulty impact learners' trajectory subsequent tasks. A diverse university sample 261 students; 118 females aged 18–67 143 males, 18–64, was...
The Autism Spectrum Quotient is used to assess autistic spectrum traits in intellectually competent adults both the general population and autism community.

The emergence of generative artificial intelligence (AI) has created legitimate concerns surrounding academic integrity and the ease with which such technologies might lead to cheating in assessment, particular. However, fixating solely on potential misconduct is overshadowing a more profound, transformative interaction between learners machines. This commentary article delves into relationship students AI, aiming highlight need for revised pedagogical strategies AI age. We argue that...
Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic significantly disrupted traditional methods of teaching and learning within higher education. But what remained when the passed? While majority literature explores shifts during pandemic, with much speculation about post-pandemic futures, a clear understanding lasting implications remains elusive. To illuminate this knowledge gap, our study contrasts pedagogical practices in matched courses from pre-pandemic year (2019) to phase (2022/2023). We also investigate...
<p>Previous studies have investigated the association between frequency of student learning management system (LMS) use (logins, discussion board use, resources used, etc.) and academic achievement. These indicate that low LMS by students is likely to result in less success. However, these models fail take into account self-beliefs may also increase explanatory value analytics from LMS. This study surveyed 310 (<em>M </em>= 22.10 years, <em>SD 6.30 years) undertaking...
Within the context of Pintrich's self-regulated learning model, recent reviews literature show that motivational factors are strongest predictors academic performance. Even so, gaps remain in terms which goal orientation constructs area most strongly related to performance, and whether self-efficacy is involved such relationships, either as mediator or moderator. This study addresses these using a sample 478 university students; 409 females aged 17–62 (M = 23.28, SD 7.22) 69 males, 18–47...
