“…Gender influences both actual and perceived knowledge where male students reported significantly higher levels of knowledge. The results are contrary to Tunku Ahmad et al (2013) who found gender differences in actual knowledge, but not in perceived knowledge. In addition, discipline of study exerted a significant influence on both knowledge types in favor of noneducation students.…”

“…To summarize, objective knowledge is what an individual actually and correctly knows about a given topic, while subjective knowledge refers to what the individual believes he/she knows, which may or may not be correct. Tunku Ahmad, Nordin, and Bello (2013) found a positive correlation of r = 0.53 between objective and subjective knowledge, while others arrived at more moderate figures, such as r = 0.37 (Wirtz & Mattila, 2003). This conclusion indicates that such relationships can be anticipated in future studies.…”

The research aimed to examine the state of Yemeni English major students’ knowledge of Internet-assisted language learning (IALL). Two types of knowledge were assessed, i.e. subjective knowledge and objective knowledge. The study also sought to examine differences in these two types of knowledge among students by gender and discipline of study, and whether subjective knowledge and objective knowledge were significantly correlated. Simple random sampling was used to select a sample of 598 English language students from education- and non-education study programs of a Yemeni public university during the 2017 academic year. Data were collected using two separate instruments: a self-developed IALL questionnaire for objective knowledge, and an adapted subjective knowledge scale. Descriptive statistics, independent-samples t-tests and bivariate correlation were carried out with SPSS software Version 24. The results show a moderate level of perceived IALL knowledge, but lower levels of actual knowledge on various aspects of IALL, particularly with respect to tools mostly used for oral language practices, such as Skype, Busuu.com, Live Mocha and SharedLingo. Gender influenced perceived knowledge – with female students reporting significantly higher knowledge levels – but not objective knowledge, while discipline of study influenced both knowledge types in favor of students pursuing non-education degree programs. A significant but inverse relationship was discovered between subjective and objective knowledge. The results emphasize the need to start focusing on adopting IALL tools by English learners in universities across Yemen. Keywords: Internet-assisted language learning, IALL tools and resources, perceived knowledge, objective knowledge, Yemeni university students

“…An attempt to understand the knowledge about GC in Mauritius University by Dookhitram, Narsoo, Sunhaloo, Sukhoo, and Soobron (2013), shows that the students possess moderate knowledge of GC, but their practice of GC in terms of everyday use of computer was not encouraging In a similar study by Ahmad, Nordin and Bello (2013) study on state of GC knowledge among students in a Malaysian public university, the study reported that the student generally lack the knowledge of GC particularly in the area of Energy Star, E-PEAT, Malaysian Green Technology Policy, printer types and energy consumption, energy-efficient practice and hazardous chemical present in computer. Also, the 72 Survey of Education, Engineering, and Information Technology Students' Knowledge of Green Computing in Nigerian University study of Batlegang (2012) on green computing, students, campus computing and the environment in Bostwana revealed a low level of computing knowledge among the university students in Bostwana.…”

The use of computer system is growing rapidly in the world today and there is also growing concern on the environmental hazard associated with its use. This necessitates the need for users' to acquaint with the knowledge of using it in an environmental friendly manner. This study therefore, investigated the knowledge of green computing possessed by university students in Nigeria. To achieve this, survey method was employed to carry out the study. The study involved students from three departments (Computer Science, Engineering, and Education). Purposive sampling method was used to draw three hundred (300) respondents that volunteer to answer the questionnaire administered for gathering the data of the study. Out of the three hundred questionnaires distributed, two hundred and seventy-six (276) were used for data analysis. In all, one hundred and sixty seven (167) respondents were male, while one hundred and nine (109) were female. The instrument used for gathering the data was adapted and modify before it was used. The instrument was subjected to pilot testing to ascertain its validity and internal consistency. The reliability of the instrument showed a .75 Cronbach's alpha level. The three research questions of the study were answer with descriptive statistic (percentage), t-test and Analysis of Variance. The findings showed that the students do not possess adequate knowledge on conscious use of computing system. Also, the study showed that there is no significant difference in the green computing knowledge possesses among male and female as well as among students' from engineering, education and computer science. Based on these findings, the study suggested among other an aggressive campaign on green computing practice among university communities.

Elektronik cihazların hayatı kolaylaştırmasının yanında çevre üzerinde de etkileri bulunmaktadır. İş ve sosyal hayatta teknoloji yoğun cihaz kullanımı çevre sorunlarının da önemli nedenleri arasındadır. Özellikle yeni nesiller odağında bu etkiler hakkında farkındalık oluşturulması sorunun çözümü noktasında yardımcı olacaktır. Yeni nesillerin eğitiminde etkin bir rol oynayan öğretmenlerin yeşil bilişim hakkındaki algı ve farkındalıklarının tespit edilmesi, algı ve farkındalığın kazandırılması öncelikli olarak atılması gerek bir adım olacaktır. Bu bağlamda çalışmada yeşil bilişim kavramı incelenmiş olup ilk ve orta öğretim kademe öğretmenlerinin yeşil bilişim algısının tespit edilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmanın kapsamını Sakarya ilinde bulunan kamu ve özel eğitim kurumlarında görev yapan ilk ve orta kademe öğretmenleri oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmaya 586 ilk ve ortaöğretim kademe öğretmeni katılmıştır. Ölçme aracı hedef kitleye çevrimiçi ortamda ulaştırılmıştır. Öğretmenlerin karbon ayak izi, elektronik atık, enerji yıldızı, enerji tasarruflu ürün, EPEAT sertifikası, TCO sertifikası gibi bazı yeşil bilişim kavramlarına ilişkin bilgi düzeylerinin ölçüldüğü bu çalışmada öğretmenlerin farkındalık düzeylerinin en yüksek olduğu kavram “enerji tasarruflu ürün” ve “elektronik atık” olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Buna ek olarak yeşil bilişim teknolojileri üzerine tanımlanan on sekiz davranış arasında en sık karşılaşılanlar ise “bilgisayarımı yalnızca ihtiyacım olduğunda açarım”, “çalışmaya uzun bir ara vereceksem bütün bilgisayar sistemlerini kapatırım”, “sadece gerektiğinde yeni bir teknolojik cihaz alırım”, “çıktısını alacağım bir belgenin sayfa sayısını azaltmaya çalışırım” olarak tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca ilköğretim kademesinde görev yapan öğretmenlerin tanımlanan yeşil bilişim kavramlarından en sık “bilgisayarımda ekran uyku özelliğini kullanırım” ve “çıktısını alacağım bir belgenin sayfa sayısını azaltmaya çalışırım” davranışını sergiledikleri görülmektedir. Ortaöğretim kademesinde ise ilköğretim kademesinde olduğu gibi sık karşılaşılan bir davranış tespit edilememiştir. Bu noktada ortaöğretim kademe öğretmenlerinin sergiledikleri bu davranış dikkat çekmektedir. Buna karşın çalışmaya katılan ilk ve orta kademe öğretmenlerin yeşil bilişim kavramlarına karşı farkındalıklarının düşük olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
