The Key Role Of Social Media In Students’ Understanding Of The Rhetorical Situation, Olivia Montine
The Key Role Of Social Media In Students’ Understanding Of The Rhetorical Situation, Olivia Montine
Seton Hall University Dissertations and Theses (ETDs)
Gen-Z students have been chastised repeatedly for their lack of attention span, addiction to social media, and inability to complete tasks in school in the manner of generations past (Richtel). It would not be productive to attempt to reform the way current college students process information, as their upbringing has largely altered their attention span and methods of content consumption. Older modes of understanding on how to write in a college composition class do not take this into account. What if the method of instruction professors utilized shifted to better meet the capabilities of college students in 2023? To answer …
Three Paper Dissertation: Mooc Participation And Experiences Of Women Learners, Kinta Montilus
Three Paper Dissertation: Mooc Participation And Experiences Of Women Learners, Kinta Montilus
Seton Hall University Dissertations and Theses (ETDs)
Through three distinct investigations, this dissertation provides a unique approach to investigating the engagement of women in MOOCs. According to previous MOOC research, not only 10% of learners who enroll in the course complete it, but the majority of these students appear to be men (Christensen et al., 2013). Women's participation in MOOCs is generally low, but it varies greatly depending on whether the course is STEM or non-STEM (i.e., Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics courses—STEM). The first study examines gender participation patterns in STEM and non-STEM MOOCs using data from existing MOOC platforms. The second research study looked at …

Practicing What They Preach: A Case Study Exploring The Experiences Of Instructional Designers As Educators Of An Online Teaching Certificate Program, David Uibelhoer
Seton Hall University Dissertations and Theses (ETDs)
The rapid integration of online education has led to faculty challenges in teaching online. Research shows that faculty online professional development that focuses on pedagogical inquiry can lead to better teaching of online courses. This qualitative case study was conducted to explore the experiences of a team of eight instructional designers who developed a four-course online teaching certificate program at a large public research university. In addition, this study sought to better understand how instructional designers describe university support for leading this faculty online professional development initiative and determine whether their expertise in online pedagogy can lead to improved online …
The Creation Of A Communication Guide For The Project Manager Implementing A Student Information System, Kimberly A. Momballou
The Creation Of A Communication Guide For The Project Manager Implementing A Student Information System, Kimberly A. Momballou
Seton Hall University Dissertations and Theses (ETDs)
The objective of this research project is to create a communication guide for the project manager responsible for implementing a student information system on a college or university campus. The implementation of a student information system may be among the most difficult challenges that are faced in higher education due to the sensitivity of the data involved, the number of employees that will be involved in the project and the potential impact on the entire campus community. Most implementations take far greater than twelve months to complete and have been known to last for several years causing a substantial strain …
The Creation Of A Multimedia Tutorial Based On The Traditional Model Of Communication, Daniel Yates
The Creation Of A Multimedia Tutorial Based On The Traditional Model Of Communication, Daniel Yates
Seton Hall University Dissertations and Theses (ETDs)
Computer mediated multimedia learning is playing an increasingly important role in education. This study seeks to create and implement an interactive multimedia tutorial on the process of communication. The tutorial will be based on the traditional basic model of communication in used entry level undergraduate speech communication courses. The study examines the evolutionary development of the basic model of communication as well as models currently in in use popular textbooks. The study also examines educational theory, visual communication and multimedia learning as they pertain to the creation of the communication tutorial.
