Trends in Online Learning Research During the Covid-19 Pandemic in Higher Education: Bibliometric Studies

In order to break the chain of the Covid-19 virus, the government recommends schools lockdown and implementing online learning. The research problem formulation is as follows: (1). How is the trend of online learning studies during the covid-19 pandemic at universities in Indonesia? (2). What topics have developed in studying online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic at universities in Indonesia? The research was carried out as a literature review using bibliometric analysis of several sources of scientific publication data. The data in this study were obtained through literature collection techniques and their references which were obtained directly from the Scopus and Google Scholar databases. The data was extracted using the Publish or Perish tool and then analyzed with the VosViewer tool. From the analysis that has been done, it can be concluded that the distribution of authors who study online learning topics during the pandemic has not yet appeared to form a polarization of authorship networks that explore these topics in depth. Meanwhile, the trends that have formed in online learning during the pandemic seem to condense into several topics.

THE IMPACT OF LEARNING MOTIVATION ON LEARNING WILLINGNESS AMONG OLDER CHINESE ADULTS

Abstract As life expectancy increases in China, lifelong learning has become an important approach to successful aging during a long retirement period. In the present study, we examined the association between learning motivation and learning willingness among older Chinese adults. A nationwide sample of 5582 older Chinese adults aged 60 to 93 (Mean age 66.5, SD = 4.67) participated in this questionnaire-based study in 2022. The results indicated that the average willingness to learn of older Chinese adults was 3.14 (range 1-5), with 61.7% of older adults showing an active or neutral willingness for learning in old age. These 3444 older adults with an active or neutral learning willingness were most willing to learn to keep healthy (70.3%) and least willing to learn re-employment skills (19.2%). In terms of learning motivation, these older adults were most likely to regard “make life convenient” as the most important motivation (27.6%). Linear regression showed that after controlling for age, education, social support, physical and cognitive health, stress, self-care ability, and daily activities, motivation could predict learning willingness. Comparing with “make life convenient”, older adults who valued “social comparison” most tended to have less willingness to learn (i.e. choose fewer learning topics, beta = -0.14, 95% Confidence Interval = [-0.23, -0.05]). In addition, older adults who valued “personal growth” (0.30 [0.21, 0.39]) or “alleviate cognitive decline” (0.14 [0.04, 0.24]) most tend to choose various learning topics. Our findings promote an understanding of how motivation is related to the learning willingness of older adults.

Trends and Issues in Research on Social Media and Collaborative Learning in PAI Learning from 2018 to 2023: Bibliometric Analysis

This article aims to identify and analyze trends and problems in research on social media and collaborative learning in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) from 2018 to 2023. The author uses a bibliometric study method using Publish or Perish and bibliometric software. The research results show that 1) RQ1: Distribution of Social Media Research and Collaborative Learning in PAI Learning (2018-2023), namely research authority is focused on social media, which is connected to several themes such as Islamic religious education (PAI), and Islamic education. shows that research orientation on social media topics is used in several studies related to PAI learning and Islamic teaching. However, no one has researched the relationship between social media and collaborative learning in PAI learning. So the researcher's orientation in further research needs to be to conduct research on social media in collaborative learning in PAI subjects; 2) RQ2: Network Theme in Social Media Research and Collaborative Learning in PAI Learning, namely the distribution of publication of articles related to "social media" starting in 2019 with one piece, and there is no increase until 2021 which is only 1 article per year, then experienced an increase in 2022 by two articles, and the peak occurred in 2023 with three publications in nationally accredited journals (Sinta). Meanwhile, the publication of articles about "collaborative learning" will only start in 2022 with two pieces. There will be no increase in 2022, which will only be two articles, and in 2023, there will be a significant increase of 5 articles published in nationally accredited journals (Sinta). Meanwhile, publications about "social media and collaborative learning in PAI learning started in 2022 with 1 article and increased in 2023 with two pieces; and 3) RQ3: Authors with the most citations (2018-2023), namely the five best authors with the highest number of citations in the 2018-2023 publication period, namely Susanto & Dwijayanto (27.27%) in 2022, followed by Kambali et al . (18.19%), Lubis et al. (13.63%), and Luthfiyah et al. (13.63%).

SUCCESSFUL LEARNING EXPERIENCES OF OT AND PT STUDENTS: ENGAGING OLDER ADULTS IN THE USE OF ASSISTIVE DEVICES

Abstract The Arkansas Colleges of Health Education and the Arkansas Geriatric Education Collaborative collaborated on a project to use an authentic teaching/learning approach with occupational and physical therapy students about the use of assistive technologies (AT) through educating older adults. Twenty occupational and physical therapy students were mentored by faculty/staff to collaborate with community-dwelling older adults to research, develop, and disseminate 27 video vignettes shared via Facebook. The vignettes included demonstrations using AT for self-care, home management, community engagement, and leisure participation to help older adults live safely and independently. Through this authentic learning approach, the students learned about the use and benefits of AT, interprofessional practice, and the importance of collaborating with older adults. Viewers of the videos were encouraged to seek further information, providing yet another opportunity for students to acquire additional information about how to secure AT and engage with older adults. Focus groups of faculty & staff involved in the project were held to determine student learning themes arising from this project. Through these focus groups, faculty/staff expressed that students • conveyed AT recommendations without prompts for clients served in the ACHE on-campus clinic; • demonstrated a greater understanding of available non-medical AT; • revealed greater comfort levels working with older adults; • gained an appreciation and understanding of each other’s disciplines; • attained professional development goals. It was also noted that faculty involved in the project appreciated the authentic nature of the teaching approach as opposed to more traditional teaching styles such as lectures.

Development of A Guided Discovery Learning Model Based on E-Learning in Thematic Learning

The research objectives include several things. The aim is to develop and analyze the effectiveness of an e-learning based guided discovery learning model in thematic learning for class V elementary school. The way to answer the research objectives is to use the ADDIE Research and Development (R&D) model. The school sample for testing the effectiveness of the model developed was selected based on probability sampling. After the sample was determined, the research results showed that the validity of the learning model was very good and could be used, while the results of the effectiveness of the model implementation could be understood through the posttest results and the results of filling out the questionnaire. Based on these results, it can be concluded that classes that use the guided discovery learning model have higher learning outcomes on average. The average learning outcome of students who studied with the e-learning based guided discovery learning model in the test class was 91.47 with a completion rate of 100%, while the control class which used the guided discovery learning model showed an average learning outcome of 88.33.
