“…In addition, in the light of the knowledge and experience of individuals who are in the process of scientific research, the level of awareness of graduate students who have recently started research may be increased. using internet-based databases (Abiddin, 2011;Olmos, Juanjo, Eva & Ana, 2015), constant monitoring of research already conducted (Jalan, Nusantara, Subanji & Chandra, 2016) and collaborative work (Igun, 2010) are all beneficial. Motivation and effective learning process are also important for higher education instructors (Sogunro, 2017).…”

This study was conducted to determine the problems faced by graduate students when conducting scientific research and to make suggestions for solving these problems. The research model was a case study. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with participants in the study with questions about the problems encountered during scientific research in graduate education, recommendations for solutions to these problems, and participants’ experiences in terms of their scientific research knowledge and skills. As a result of the discussions, the participants suggested that courses should be more practical and that there should be more taught courses, so that educators can direct students and facilitate access to resources.

“…) have therefore been advocating using LMSs beyond being merely as a repository, i.e., utilizing their potential for supporting interactions, collaborations, and developing a learning community. This study regards those LMS uses or functionalities not related to reposition as the non-repository uses, (Palincsar, 1998), such that a collaborative discourse enables the coconstruction of meaning through students' sharing of texts and other devices (e.g., graphics) (Olmos et al, 2015). This can be operationalized as collaboration as a use of LMS.…”

Learning Management Systems (LMSs) have been widely adopted in higher education worldwide, but predominately used as repositories of learning materials. Mobile access to LMSs enables greater mobility and flexible learning, and thus may help boosting non-repository uses of LMSs, maximizing their educational affordance. This study examined the extent to which mobile access to an LMS, Moodle, was used for various learning activities, with a focus on those beyond storing and retrieving learning materials, as well as the factors influencing students’ non-repository uses of LMS via mobile access. A mixed-method approach was applied, with survey responses collected from 316 students and interviews with 26 students and five instructors across nine courses in a comprehensive university in Hong Kong. The results showed that mobile access to non-repository uses of Moodle was significantly less frequent than that to repository uses across all courses, and students viewed mobile access to the Moodle platform largely as a backup to supplement computer access. Findings suggested four inter-related factors influencing mobile access to LMS for non-repository uses, including course LMS activity design, instructors’ attitudes towards LMS, the nature of tasks conducted with LMS, and situational contexts.

“…Analysis of researches allowed to state that music distance learning is important for providing quality musical instructions, eliminating various barriers such as socio-economic status or geographical location, offering deeply reflection by instructors of teaching process (Pike, 2017). Moodle tool allows using distance format in a most appropriate way such as connected knowledge for building 'ideas on the basis of others through collaboration' (Olmos, Mena, Torrecilla, & Iglesias, 2015).…”

Also, it provided connected knowledge learning that tends to build new ideas on the basis of traditional culture through collaboration. The purpose of the paper is to study the usage of national vocal traditions in the learning process of future music teacher through the elements of Moodle, such as lectures about vocal art and assessment resources. The research used the following methods: analysis of musical-pedagogical literature, studying educational documents, analysis of national vocal traditions, questioning, testing, interviewing. The results of the complex educational process include traditional face-to-face and digital format that show a deep understanding of students' intonation system of folk melodies and features of traditional musical culture. The researchers concluded that the main role of the folk vocal performance traditions in the process of improvement of professional knowledge and skills of the future music teacher include their emotional state, moral, aesthetic and spiritual qualities. These results will allow increasing the quality of the process of professional creative realization of the future music teacher through the interaction to the vocal art of different peoples by smooth communication at the Moodle environment.
