“…The use of e-learning systems and their digital tools in the assessment are appreciated by accounting students compared with a traditional on-campus paper assessment (Helfaya, 2019;Marriott, 2009), and their performance improves with online assessments (Aisbitt, & Sangster, 2005;Duncan et al, 2012;Haidar, 2022). There is a positive and significant relationship between the students' use of e-learning systems and their performance in the final assessments in accounting courses (Perera, & Richardson, 2010).…”

The study aims to investigate whether a change in the delivery of assessment methods, from a full online assessment to a hybrid assessment, affected accounting students' grades during the COVID-19 Pandemic. This study also considers whether the change undertaken to assessment methods met their targets of improving assessment practices and maintaining academic integrity. The statistical analysis technique used was an independent sample t-test, chi-square, and ANOVA. A total of 473 final grades (fully online assessment = 224, hybrid assessment = 249) were collected to achieve the study purpose. The findings show a statistically significant difference in the final course grades between the two assessment methods. In each course, students scored significantly lower on the hybrid assessment compared to students who took the fully online assessment, indicating that changes in the assessment delivery method affected students' grades and that the shift to hybrid assessment had a positive effect assessment system. Additionally, the performance of males and females is too different; female students have made higher grades than peer males in both methods in each course, indicating that the grades between males and females are different. This research recommends that the use of a hybrid assessment approach would help in providing a unique educational environment and this approach of varied assessment can enable lecturers to find out student abilities in accounting courses and maintain academic integrity.

“…According to Arquero et al (2023) communication barriers have a negative relationship with group work self-efficacy, and therefore educators should develop both teamwork and communication skills in students and thus reduce communication concerns. Haidar (2022) conducted a perception analysis of soft skills and distance education and found that distance education has a positive effect on the development of soft skills. According to Kotze and Miller (2023), teamwork, relationship building, emotional intelligence and leadership or professional skepticism should be developed in schools.…”

This study reports on the effect of literary texts on learner autonomy. The study was conducted on a group of senior students majoring in TEFL at university. To this end, it purported to investigate students’ views of their responsibilities and decision-making abilities, as two major phenomena in the learner’s autonomy, in learning English. Further, their motivation level and the actual language learning activities they undertook inside and outside classroom with a view to gauging their readiness for autonomous learning were also measured. Sixty participants with similar knowledge in English were selected through a proficiency test to make sure the groups were nearly homogeneous. These subjects formed our experimental and control groups. Then, the experimental group was given some literary texts (short stories) to read and analyze the elements of the story during one academic semester. In order to assess all the subjects’ opinions about autonomous learning especially in second language learning, a questionnaire was used to collect the relevant data at the end of the semester. The results indicated that the lite4rary texts could boost the experimental subjects’ motivation abut could not achieve autonomous behavior at a satisfactory level in second language learning.
