“…Unlike in the past, today, online education does not require the use of a stationary computer. Content can be displayed on a tablet [13,14], a smartphone [15,16], a laptop, [17,18], or with the use of Virtual Reality (VR) goggles [19,20]. This enables students to obtain knowledge and understanding, and new solutions are being implemented globally.…”

A Worldwide Journey through Distance Education—From the Post Office to Virtual, Augmented and Mixed Realities, and Education during the COVID-19 Pandemic

Surprisingly, distance education is quite an old concept. Its origins date back to the first correspondence-based course, which took place via the postal service in Boston, USA, in the 18th century. Rapid technological developments, especially in video and audio streaming, have increased the availability of such courses and moved learning into the virtual world. Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we are witnessing an accelerated revolution in the learning process, as nearly all forms of education have been shifted online. Will this have a destructive effect on the human psyche? Is humanity sufficiently aware and ready for such a dramatic change? Will we return to physical in-classroom studies, or is remote distance education set to become the new norm? In particular, in medicine, computer science, fine arts, or architectural design, such a rapid change in the way students learn can be quite challenging. In this paper, we provide an overview of the history of distance learning, taking into account teachers’ and students’ points of view in both secondary and higher education.

“…Another critical factor is the recognition of micro-credentials by employers. Company policies often fail to acknowledge online learning for promotion (Fraszczyk & Piip, 2020). Integrating micro-credential programs into existing HR processes, such as performance evaluations and promotions, presents further challenges due to inconsistencies of micro-credentials across providers (Gessler & Ahren, 2020;Varadarajan et al, 2023).…”

The study addresses the problem of the lack of a comprehensive questionnaire that encompasses the diverse requirements for designing effective learning environments and delivering meaningful learning experiences in micro-credential programs, with a specific focus on Malaysia higher education institutions. The aim of the study was to develop and validate a questionnaire capable of identifying the design requirements for microlearning in the context of developing micro-credentials. To achieve this, the questionnaire underwent validation through both exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and quantitative analysis. The study involved 48 participants who were micro-credential developers from a public higher education institution in Malaysia. These participants represented various designations and were affiliated with 16 different faculties. Initially, a 70-item questionnaire was developed by incorporating relevant insights from literature review into Khan’s e-learning model. After eliminating overlapping items and items that did not adequately represent the specific elements, a 56-item questionnaire was developed. The exploratory factor analysis (EFA) resulted in 14 factors consisting of 57 high-loading components, which collectively explained 85.549% of the total variance. The 57-item questionnaire demonstrated favourable multifaceted qualities. The content validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by an expert panel, which identified the pedagogical dimension, technological dimension, evaluation dimension, management dimension, resources support and institutional dimension as significant factors. These six main constructs were collectively utilised to determine the microlearning design requirements for the development of micro-credentials. By addressing the multifaceted requirements of microlearning design, this questionnaire has the potential to enhance the overall quality and effectiveness of micro-credential programs in the Malaysian higher education landscape and beyond.

eLearning is one of the tools used by the educational institution. Unfortunately, many eLearning systems were not fully utilized by the user. These problems occur because of a lack of interaction in the eLearning system, dulling the learning process. Another problem is the lack of preparation from the user. This research tried to tackle these problems using gamification. The gamification adopted in this prototype is Medals, Ratings, and Discussion. The development prototype development using User Centred Design to gather the requirements and system flows. The use of these elements is hoped to be able to elevate the eLearning adoptions. The results of this research are the prototype of the gamification features and the business process of discussion in the eLearning system
