Social Media in Dynamic Learning: Logistics and Influential Factors

Abstract

Educators have been using social media to enrich learning activities and promote interactive and collaborative learning. Under the context of dynamic learning-the way that 21st century's learners learn, the new challenges are: how educators design such a setting to effectively integrate certain social media tools to improve learning, and what the influential factors might be that educators need to focus during the design. In this article, we employ the concept "logistics" to explain and redefine dynamic design, dynamic learning, and dynamic thinking, which furthermore formulate the framework of the study. This article presents a critical content review of current literature, and an analysis of 276 cases located from the literature on seven factors (

An Examination of Influential Factors on Gamification in Higher Education: A Content Analysis

“…Second, this study was only able to retain 67 cases in the final sample due to strict inclusion criteria. For an expected odds ratio to be 3.0, a sample size of 96 is needed for logistic regression analysis (Liu et al, 2019). The comparatively small sample size may limit the generalizability of the study.…”

“…In addition, an experiment conducted by Lu and Wang (2019) using an AI-powered English learning platform demonstrated that using AI in language learning could improve students' motivation, engagement, and satisfaction. The study found that students using the platform had higher motivation and engagement levels than those without and reported higher satisfaction with the learning experience.…”

Influential Factors on Technology-Based Learning in Science, Mathematics, and Engineering (SME): A Case-Analysis from 305 Studies

“…With ADDIE integrated in all three dimensions, the ITD model has been tested to be effective over years from a series of case analysis, for example, on the following themes: (a) using Web 2.0 in teacher education with 88 published cases (Liu & Maddux, 2008), (b) the effectiveness of flipped learning with 216 published cases (Liu, Ripley, & Lee, 2016), (c) technology and dynamic design in counseling education and practice with 261 published cases (Liu, Li, & Shcherer, 2016), and (d) social media in dynamic learning with 276 cases (Liu, Chen, & Li, 2019). Those case analyses were performed with logistic 109 regressions, and the results consistently demonstrated that all three dimensions integrated together was the necessary and sufficient condition leading to the expected learning outcomes.…”
