Adaptive learning in university students’ opinions: Cross-border research

Abstract

Contemporary education is often based on using e-learning courses, which have become a popular means of delivering didactic material to students. Among the main advantages mentioned is the potential possibility of creating individual ways of learning and teaching. The purpose of this article is to provide a description of the various approaches to adaptive learning, to present the comparative research results of a Polish-Ukrainian study, as well as to highlight the options offered by LMS Moodle (Modular object-oriented dynamic learning environment Learning Management System) for the implementation of adaptive learning and the possibility of taking into account the expectation of students regardless of the country. During the study, an online survey was administered to 59 students at the University of Silesia in Katowice (US), Poland and 121 students at the Borys Grinchenko Kyiv University (BGKU), Ukraine between March–June 2020. All of the students were studying online due to the pandemic caused by COVID-19. The classes were conducted in synchronous and in asynchronous modes using e-learning courses in the Moodle system, as well as MS Teams for Polish students and Google Suite for Ukrainian students. At the same time, the majority of the surveyed students declared that they lack personalization, both in terms of materials and the learning process, which was limited in terms of fulfilment and they would like to have a choice of the level of study.

Impact of the covid-19 pandemic on the use of ICT tools in science and technology education

“…To fully exploit the didactic usefulness of ICT, it is required to identify the learning objectives and match the digital tools to the achievement of those objectives (Smyrnova-Trybulska, Morze & Varchenko-Trotsenko, 2022). Consequently, as different subject areas have different learning objectives and outcomes, the way ICT should be applied in the classroom and the type of resources that teachers should use depends on the subject area (Antón-Sancho, Vergara, Fernández-Arias & Ariza-Echeverri, 2022c).…”

Development of advanced digital ecosystems at universities: A study comparing experiences from Ukraine, Poland and Slovakia

“…In the last year, 24,800 active platform users have been registered. The majority of academic teachers successfully participated in teacher training courses in personal or online mode (20 h total) and now hold certificates as tutors and as e‐learning course authors in the use of the Moodle system (Smyrnova‐Trybulska et al., 2022). The number of active courses on all faculty platforms (i.e.…”

Determining University Students’ Views on Mobile Technology and Moodle Applications in Personalized Learning

“…The work by [20], in the purpose of this article, is aimed at providing a description of various approaches to adaptive learning, and as a result, in the system Moodle elearning courses, as well as Polish and Ukrainian students by using the Google Suite for Ms teams conducted for students in synchronous and asynchronous modes of the results arrived at, and also achieved the lessons they provide the benefits of this technology, in this context, when this value is combined with the values of the research, it is seen that the audience in the study is trained with google meet technology, and it is concluded that moodle applications benefit their courses synchronously within the system they use, it can be said that they benefit students in both values in this context.…”
