The results of the study show that the low competence of students is in three domains, that are 1) mastery of making learning tools, 2) determining learning strategies and models, and 3)mastering materials. keywords: competency; education; experience; field; learning; material; ppl; practice; research; students; teachers; teaching cache: ijrse-604.pdf plain text: ijrse-604.txt item: #36 of 44 id: ijrse-61 author: Abdulhamid, Mustapha; Dauda, Sufiyanu title: Appraisal of Attitudes and Utilizations of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Among Students in Nigerian Universities date: 2019-11-30 words: 6483 flesch: 41 summary: This work could not incorporate students attitude towards the ICT, which is another gap been created by the study and the ongoing study aimed at bridging the gap Yusuf (2011), also examined the attitude of student-teachers attitude towards the use of ICT, competence of student-teacher in the use of ICT and the influence of gender on student-teachers competence and attitude towards ICT. The result of the analysis revealed that there is moderate correlation between undergraduate students’ attitude toward ICT and their achievement in ICT, as the Pearson correlation between undergraduate students attitude towards ICT and their achievement was 0.432. keywords: attitude; education; ict; information; internet; students; study; technology; university; use cache: ijrse-61.pdf plain text: ijrse-61.txt item: #37 of 44 id: ijrse-623 author: Paco, Daphnee S.; Yazon, Alberto D.; Manaig, Karen A. ; Sapin, Sherwin B. ; Bandoy, Marcial M. title: Paint A Portrait: Lived Experience of Parents in the Implementation of Modular Distance Learning date: 2021-11-30 words: 7140 flesch: 52 summary: ISSN 2721-2904 (Online) | 2721-3242 (Print) Volume 3 Number 2 (2021): 37-50 Corresponding author daphneepaco25@gmail.com DOI: https://doi.org/10.31098/ijrse.v3i2.623 Research Synergy Foundation Paint A Portrait: Lived Experience of Parents in the Implementation of Modular Distance Learning Daphnee S.

As reflected in the responses of learners in Table 2 regarding when counting and using numbers and consistent with cognitive learning theory, Scholar (2008) argued that by the time learners leave primary school, they will not have confidently grasped counting and numbers. keywords: challenges; cognition; concepts; education; journal; learners; learning; mathematics; numbers; problems; research; years cache: ijrse-884.pdf plain text: ijrse-884.txt item: #43 of 44 id: ijrse-907 author: Sembiring, Maximus Gorky title: The Role of Virtual Teacher in the Digital Age: Engraver the Future of Indonesian Golden Generations date: 2022-05-31 words: 8777 flesch: 51 summary: How do education, learning, and teachers respond to such needs?
