The technology of blended learning is one of the modern trends in education both in the world and in Russia. The article explores the various possibilities of blended learning technology. As a means of implementing online learning, it is proposed to use LMS Moodle, which is widely used among educational organizations. The categorization of the main elements of Moodle from the perspective of the organization of pedagogical control, forms of presentation of teaching materials is presented. Examples of the use of basic resources and elements of Moodle in the educational process are given. The interactive properties of individual elements those allow you to more effectively implement online learning in blended learning technology are revealed. An approach is proposed to understand the essence of blended learning technology as a technology that allows to activate a student’s activities in the framework of full-time education by using online training and transferring (from full-time education) those activities that students are able to implement in the absence of a teacher.

Forecasting human poses given a sequence of historical pose frames has several important applications, especially in the domain of smart home safety. Recently, computer vision-based human pose forecasting has made a breakthrough using deep learning technology. However, to implement a practical system deployed on an IoT edge environment, there are still two issues to be addressed. First, existing methods on pose forecasting fail to model the coherent structural information of connected human joints and thus cannot achieve satisfactory prediction accuracy, especially for long-term predictions. Second, a general and static pre-trained prediction model may not perform well in the deployment environment due to the visual domain shift problem. In this article, we propose a hybrid cloud-edge system called GPFS to solve those issues. Specifically, we first introduce a novel graph convolutional neural network (GCN)-based sequence-to-sequence learning method, which enhances the sequence encoder by using a graph to represent both the spatial and temporal connections of the human joints in the input frames. The GCN improves the forecasting accuracy by capturing the motion pattern of each joint as well as the correlations among different human joints over time. Second, to address the domain shift issue and protect data privacy, we extend the system to perform online learning on the IoT edge to adapt the cloud trained general model with online collected on-site domain data. Extensive evaluation on Human 3.6M and Penn Action datasets demonstrates the superiority of our proposed system.

ObjectiveTo design, implement and assess an online learning module for third-year and fourth-year medical students addressing medication safety.DesignThis study was a prospective, parallel, open-label, randomised controlled trial with two arms: (1) a control arm in which students were given five articles to read about medication safety, and (2) an intervention arm in which students were given access to an interactive web-based learning module on medication safety. Pretesting and post-testing were done online to evaluate change in medication safety knowledge.ResultsTen students completed the study in the intervention group (online module) and six students completed the study in the control group. The increase in score obtained on the post-test, relative to the pretest, was 15.4% in the group who completed the online module and 2.0% in the control group (difference=13.4%, 95% CI 0.5% to 26.2%, p=0.04).ConclusionStudents who completed an online educational tool about medication safety demonstrated a significantly greater increase in knowledge than those who completed a few readings. Online learning modules can be a convenient and effective means of teaching safe prescribing concepts to medical trainees.

Abstract The Flipped Classroom is a teaching method that makes use of technology to provide a self-directed learning environment for students. The purpose of this article is to learn about high school students' perspectives on Flipped Classroom, the use of video and social media, time spent studying, mastery of learning materials, and completion of online learning. This study is a descriptive study. Questionnaires were presented to 95 Indonesian students who were chosen at random. In general, when students use Flipped Classroom in Indonesian lessons, they spend less time doing assignments or homework, they enjoy learning more, and they benefit from learning videos in Flipped Classroom to help them grasp the material. This article demonstrates how Flipped Classroom improves student participation, communication, and understanding.   Keywords: Flipped Classroom, online learning, technology

In March 2020, the world was first hit by Covid-19 that started to have negative impact on all sectors including education. Most of the higher learning institutions had a shift to use the technology in imparting knowledge and conducting online learning for students. This paper analyzed the effect of attitude, interruption, personal skills and technology skills towards effective online learning. A total of 375 valid questionnaire responses was coded and analyzed using PLS-SEM analysis. The findings showed the attitude and technology skills were significant factors to the barriers of effective online learning among students.

ABSTRAK : Kepesatan perkembangan teknologi berdampak pada sitem pembelajaran termasuk pada anak usia dini. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh emergency remote learning terhadap motivasi belajar anak usia dini. Metode penelitian menggunakan penelitian kajian literatur. Berbagai literatur tentang pembelajaran daring dihimpun dalam penelitian ini. Temuan penilitian ini yaitu, pembelajaran daring sebenarnya  dapat  membangkitkan motivasi  belajar  anak  dengan  syarat adanya dukungan dari orangtua dan pendidik, pemanfaatan media seperti  zoom  dan  lainnya  diperlukan untuk membuat pembelajaran agar lebih menarik dan pemanfaatan teknologi belajar  dalam  pendidikan  tidak  dapat  dilepaskan,  maka  perlu  adaptasi antara orangtua, peserta didik dan pendidik dalam pembelajaran daring. Hasil penelitian ini memberikan kontribusi dalam pengetahuan tentang dampak pembelajaran daring terhadap motivasi belajar anak usia dini. Rekomendasi untuk penelitian selanjutnya adalah agar melakukan penelitian eksperimen dan penelitian tindakan kelas untuk mengetahui dampak langsung dari pembelajaran daring. ABSTRACT : The rapidity of technological development has an impact on the learning system, including early childhood. This study aims to determine the effect of emergency remote learning on early childhood learning motivation. The research method used literature review research. Various literatures on online learning were collected in this study. The findings of this study are, first, online learning can actually arouse children's learning motivation on the condition that there is support from parents and educators. Second, the use of media such as zoom and others is needed to make learning more interesting. Third, the use of learning technology in education cannot be separated, it is necessary to adapt between parents, students and educators in online learning. The results of this study contribute to knowledge about the impact of online learning on early childhood learning motivation. The recommendation for further research is to carry out experimental research and classroom action research to determine the direct impact of online learning.

In this issue of ALT-J we have five papers that cover a range of policy, evaluation and development issues. The first paper, by Smith, sets the scene for the remaining papers with its focus on policy and how this may be influenced by rhetoric, and in turn may influence creativity and innovation. In ‘From flowers to palms: 40 years of policy for online learning’, Smith presents a review of learning technology-related policy over the past 40 years. The purpose of the review is to make sense of the current position in which the field finds itself, and to highlight lessons that can be learned from the implementation of previous policies.DOI: 10.1080/09687760500104039
