Abstract: This article investigates the relationship between Web-based learning and Critical thinking (CT) in a web-based course on the fundamentals of Information Technology at a university in Montreal, Canada. In particular, it will identify what part(s) of the course and to what extent, critical thinking is perceived to occur. The course contains two categories of learning modules namely resources and interactive activity components. The study aimed at answering the following questions: (1) What is the effect of the … Show more

“…As shown in Fig. 3, The graph, as expected, describes oscillations with a constant frequency of 0.36 , the amplitude of wave elevation inside the chamber decays over time until it equals to zero, which is similar to the case of the under-damped oscillatory linear systems [6].…”

“…For example, integrating the course tool WebCT has been shown to improve reading engagement and critical thinking skills (Burgess, 2009). Additionally, in a study by Morin, Thomas, and Saadé (2012), students perceived that using the Web contributed the most to fostering critical thinking skills. Further, online courses allow students with the opportunity to master their learning, learn at their own pace, and engage anonymously in online discussions .…”

“…Despite this, numerous researchers have found a strong correlation between the use of technology and increased student engagement and academic achievement (Rashid & Asghar, 2016;Sahin & Yilmaz, 2020). They have also noted that technology can be an effective tool for the development of language learning and critical thinking skills and can lead to academic achievements; for example, the use of podcasts can help learners improve their pronunciation skills (Ducate & Lomicka, 2009;Morin, Thomas, & Saadé, 2012).…”
