“… Watch: Students are initially presented with one or more short videos introducing a new concept. The videos are intentionally kept to no longer than 15 minutes in order to encourage student persistence (Pomales‐García & Liu, ). Guiding discussions with the use of prompts helps students to reflect more deeply on the content and provides a starting point for them to engage with other learners.…”

“…The data collected in this study echo both the message on the role of new teaching techniques and approaches, and at the same time it shows that many traditional methods such as using a board to present a dynamic and interactive teaching session are most effective. Research has shown that interface design is an important issue in effective instructional technology and methods [14,15].…”

The purpose of this study was to understand the views and perceptions of engineering undergraduate students on engineering education. The method of content analysis was used to analyze the language used by engineering undergraduate students, and to extract the underlying common factors or perceived characteristics of “Excellence in Engineering Education.” These common factors were then used to identify and compare the similarities and differences in views between engineering students and perspectives from three types of stakeholders in the field. Forty‐seven undergraduate engineering students (17 females and 30 males) participated voluntarily in this study to answer four individual questions and ten group questions. The results showed that students strongly emphasized the importance of their own roles in the educational system and the value of instructional technology and real work examples in enhancing the quality of engineering education. The implications of the research results on excellence in engineering education are discussed.

“…As far as interface-related structure is concerned, we identified five aspects based on an examination of the related literature: usability, visualisation, functionality, media use and cognitive load related to learning the required technologies (Hillman et al, 1994;Plass, Chun, Mayer, & Leutner, 2003;Pomales-García & Liu, 2006;Stoney & Wild, 1998;Vertelney, Arent, & Lieberman, 1990).…”

This study was an initial attempt to operationalise Moore's transactional distance theory by developing and validating an instrument measuring the related constructs: dialogue, structure, learner autonomy and transactional distance. Data were collected from 227 online students and analysed through an exploratory factor analysis. Results suggest that the instrument, in general, shows promise as a valid and reliable measure of the constructs related to transactional distance theory. Potential refinement of the instrument and future research directions are included at the end of the article.
