Sam M Dakka Department of Engineering & Math, Sheffield Hallam University, Howard Street, Sheffield S1 1WB,United Kingdom  ABSTRACT Learning and teaching experiment was designed to incorporate SRS-Student Response System to measure and assess student engagement in higher education for level 5 engineering students. The SRS system was based on getting an immediate student feedback to short quizzes lasting 10 to 15 minutes using Socrative software. The structure of the questions was a blend of true/false, multiple choice and short answer questions. The experiment was conducted through semester 2 of yearlong engineering module. The outcome of the experiment was analyzed quantitatively based on student performance and qualitatively through student questionnaire. The results indicate that using student paced assessments method using Socrative enhanced student’s performance. The results showed that 53% of the students improved their performance while 23% neither improved...

International Journal on Integrating Technology in Education (IJITE) ISSN : 2320 - 1886(Online; 2320 - 3935(Print) http://airccse.org/journal/ijite/home.html Article Title: General Impacts of Integrating Advanced and Modern Technologies on Teaching English as a Foreign Language ABSTRACT Technology has always played a key role in General and ESP (English for Specific Purposes)language learning and teaching. Currently the range of technologies being used in classrooms all over the globe for Language Learning and Teaching (LLT) has become very diverse, and some which have become central to language practice are briefly described in this paper. Since English is the most commonly ‘learned’ and ‘taught’ second/foreign language around the world, this paper intends to explore how advanced and modern technologies are used to support the process of English language teaching and learning for those at various stages of education. Furthermore, it presents and compares so...

E-Learning Student Assistance Model for the First Computer Programming Course

Image
International Journal on Integrating Technology in Education (IJITE) ISSN : 2320 - 1886(Online; 2320 - 3935(Print)  http://airccse.org/journal/ijite/home.html ABSTRACT E-Learning applied to computer programming course design is a promising area of research. The student having clear understanding of the programming constructs can apply it to solve various problems. Because of limited time and availability, the instructor can go back to some extent to cover the weaknesses of their students that hinder the understanding of the problems. As more lessons are covered, the weak students become weaker in programming. To cope up with these problems an e-learning system is devised which the student can use anywhere and at any time as a web application. It comprises of both tutoring and assessment and also provides guiding the students to error correction using back-tracking technique to refine the concepts and reattempt the programming problem. KEYWORDS E-learning, c...
