Assessment is a powerful lever that affects learning. To better inform educators on authentic assessment practices within digital education in the higher education landscape, this paper takes us through a meta-analysis of existing literature between 2011 to 2021. The study evaluates the following research question: “How are emerging technologies shaping authentic assessment practices within digital education for higher education for the period between 2011 and 2023”. To aid with the forecasting, we utilize the EDUCAUSE Horizon Reports, which provide the predictions of emerging technology. This study affirms the importance of immersive learning technologies, followed by ubiquitous and adaptive learning technologies …

Programming courses provide students with the skills to develop complex business applications. Teaching and learning programming is challenging, and collaborative learning is proposed to help with this challenge. Online discussion forums promote networking with other learners such that they can build knowledge collaboratively. It aids students open their horizons of thought processes to acquire cognitive skills. Cognitive analysis of discussion is critical to understand students' learning process. In this paper, we propose Bloom's taxonomy based cognitive model for programming discussion forums. We present machine learning (ML) based solution to extract students' cognitive skills. Our evaluations on compupting courses show that …

Slides are important form of teaching materials used in various courses at academic institutions. Due to their compactness, slides on their own may not stand as complete reference materials. To aid students’ understanding, it would be useful to supplement slides with other materials such as online videos. Given a deck of slides and a related video, we seek to align each slide in the deck to a relevant video snippet, if any. While this problem could be formulated as aligning two time series (each involving a sequence of text contents), we anticipate challenges in generating matches arising from differences in …
