This study provides an overview of recent research concerning the geometric significance of the Laplace-Beltrami operator, inherently associated with a Riemannian manifold. Essentially, it offers an expanded examination of R. Brooks' expository paper [1], as well as closely related articles. Beginning with a basic exploration of the isospectrality...
This study addresses a significant problem: it is difficult to choose a suitable mobile learning platform effectively since many learning platforms are readily available for users. For this purpose, the study proposes an efficient way to rank and choose the most suitable mobile learning platform by integrating risk analysis and multi-criteria decis...
In a technologically disadvantaged and thriving developing country, university students in Somalia were abruptly required to adopt nontraditional learning using video conferencing facilities during the COVID-19 pandemic. While video conferencing tools for teaching and learning are claimed to be effective, it is still unclear what advantages and dif...
Impressive evolution of technology increased the usage frequency of smart mobile phones, and hence abundance in the quantity of available mobile applications has emerged as the vital problem of inventing practical and efficient ways for selecting suitable mobile applications for the desired use. Today, there are almost three million apps only at th...
More and more instructors have begun using blended learning to overcome the challenges encountered during the covid-19 pandemic. However, still not much known about influential factors in students' acceptance of such hybrid learning systems. For this purpose, a framework that includes key attributes such as; information quality and system quality,...
Everyday social media usage particularly Facebook usage are growing exponentially. Simply inspecting Facebook usage provides meaningful information concerning users’ daily interactions and hence about personality traits. Numerous studies have been done to harness such streams of Facebook data to obtain accurate prediction of human behavior, social...
Learning analytics refers to a systematic process involving measuring, collecting, analyzing and reporting data about learners with the aim of fully understanding how best learning environments can be optimized to increase efficiency. The aim of this study is to understand the factors contributing to the learning analytics adoption by university st...
Advancements in Information and Communications Technology has enabled learning to be conducted online frequently through Learning Management Systems (LMS). The use of Learning Management Systems (LMS) as tools for learning in the present Internet age is seen as an important solution to remedy major problems particularly faced by higher education in...
This paper addresses faculty members' (academic staff) viewpoints on benefits, barriers and concerns of utilizing social media and also investigates differences with respect to their social media experience in teaching, age and the purpose of using social media. The data was collected through an adopted questionnaire from 324 faculty members of two...
Recent advances in technology have initiated a new era in education and thus provided new learning opportunities as support or as an alternative to traditional teaching and learning practices. Among these recently emerged technologically enriched educational strategies, flipped classroom approach has been widely and globally used by many higher edu...
Mobile learning provides learning anytime and anywhere. Due the its ease of use, flexibility and prevalence, today numerous mobile learning applications are readily available for download at online application stores. However, evaluation of such mobile learning applications are neglected by the current literature and yet, only very limited number o...
Exponential growth in the amount of mobile
applications for Mathematics has led users to confusion and
difficulty in selecting proper application manually which suits to
their needs. Therefore, there exists an imperative need for
automated and efficient selection of mobile applications for
Mathematics where users still heavily trust either applicat...
The aim of the study is to investigate university faculty members’ views towards adoption of cloud computing in higher education. The current status of the faculty on cloud computing usage in education and regional differences were discussed. Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats (SWOT) and Technology, Organization, Environment (TOE) framew...

The pervasiveness of information sharing through highly popular social media tools have raised
considerable ethical problems particularly in the areas of privacy, accuracy, property and accessibility.
These issues were mentioned in the eminent framework of Richard Mason written in 1986 which are
recognized as PAPA (privacy, accuracy, property and a...
The pervasiveness of social media usage especially in educational context requires a reconsideration of current information ethics frameworks. This study primarily aims to identify the most common ethical challenges of
social media usage in educational context along with the detection of most popular features of social media
particularly Facebook....
Cloud computing plays an essential role in storage and transfer of big capacity data due to a rapid increase in size and the number of organizational activities. There exist numerous studies in which diverse soft computing techniques are applied to the cloud environment. The relevant extant literature that were clustered into five main categories w...
Growing number of mobile learning applications particularly for mathematics (MLAM) have dramatically changed the way individuals learn mathematics in recent years. However, due to abundant number of applications, MLAM users encounter with difficulty in choosing the right application for their choice. The manual selection of these applications is te...
The wide spread of internet resources has emerged new paradigms of learning and knowledge delivery to facilitate and enhance learning particularly in e-learning systems. The important milestones of these new paradigms are known as digital learning objects (DLO) which are smallest packed bits for learning. The abundance of these DLOs raises an impor...
The traits where some students preferring certain methods of learning more than others, referred to as learning styles, form a student’s unique learning preference and help instructors in the planning more individualized instruction. If optimal student learning is dependent on learning styles, and these styles vary with respect to students from var...
The purpose of this study is two-fold: It aims to determine the factors that are influential in undergraduate students’ approaches to studying, self-efficacy, problem solving strategies, competency in mathematical thinking and reasoning; to identify any gender, grade level, and regional differences among the identified factors and on the overall co...
