Dear Colleagues Worldwide:
Call for Papers
Special Issue, Volume 23, Number 2, 2021
Journal of Information Technology Case and Application Research
(JITCAR)
Special Issue on Online Education
Online education in its various modes has been growing steadily
worldwide due to the confluence of new technologies, global
adoption of internet, and intensifying demand for a workforce
trained periodically for the ever-evolving digital economy.
Pandemic Covid-19 has accelerated this transformation. Global,
country, institutional, curriculum/program, and micro level
factors impact quantity and quality of online education. Micro
level factors include technology, professors, students, and course
characteristics and their interactions. Several questions will
remain unanswered: What new pedagogical theories and technologies
were at play and continue to emerge? What innovative individual,
disciplinary, and/or organizational shifts took place to ensure
effective learning? How do we maintain, extend, and innovate on
these strategies going forward? This special issue is dedicated to
the analysis of the evolution of traditional in-class education
towards blended, hybrid, flipped, synchrono
us online, asynchronous online and combinations thereof. Topics
for submission can include the following and any other relevant
subject on this theme:
* Efficacy of Online Education in Various Modes
* Impact of Institutional Characteristics on Implementation of
Online Education
* Impediments to Globalization of Online Education
* Effectiveness of Online Education Platforms like Blackboard,
Moodle, Zoom, Webex
* New Rules and Regulations for Online Education
* Meta-analysis of Online Education Studies
* Impact on Learning Outcomes with Online Education
* Mediating Factors in Successful Implementation of Online
Education
* Cyber threats Plagiarism Issues with Online Education
