The accelerated adoption of distance learning in post-pandemic times has resulted increasing research publications and review studies a short time. This necessitates the exploration large corpus academic for effective strategies. As stakeholders have assimilated transactional approach to understanding learning, theory (TDT) is relevant understand ways reduce between learners educators maximum effectiveness learning. Our study applies TDT from supply perspective as tool ensure improved quality paper two key contributions: we presented evidence synthesis conducted foresight exercise. Following preferred reporting items systematic reviews meta-analyses guidelines, 275 documents published 1994 2022 were identified review. analysis revealed patterns, relationships, trends application various contexts. Most social sciences (83.7%), with computer science accounting 42.6% studies. course materials’ structure design also received considerable attention, around 40.0% focused on this area. For revolve factors such student engagement, satisfaction, TDT, which examine instructors environments. Through meta-analysis, identify three thematic areas We chartered themes effect alternate platforms learner success, pushing development boundaries success through practical processes designing successful courses via TDT-based pedagogical frameworks. In doing so, streamline thematically provide insight into further work. addition, analyzed relationships sustainable goal (SDG) literature. co-citation suggested that strongest links observed education innovation (SDG 4 SDG 9), followed by gender equality 5).

Introduction: gamification consists of the application game elements and mechanics in non-game contexts, such as education. The that can be included a strategy are very varied, from design characters virtual worlds to use rewards challenges. Aim: analyze implementation Master's Degree Teacher Training. Methods: case-control study was conducted. sample consisted 84 students who were divided into two groups: an experimental group, which received intervention, control group did not receive any intervention. To evaluate effectiveness student retention knowledge acquisition measured through assessment tool. Results: it observed mean participants between each session similar this group. This suggests length itself have significant impact on content retention. An increase number interactions made chat observed, suggesting increased engagement participation learning process. viewing time attributed methodology, uses playful motivate maintain participants' interest Conclusions: distance online effective tool improve acquisition.

This study utilized a systematic-narrative hybrid strategy to overview the concept of skill gap and its measuring approaches. Using PRISMA guidelines, we conducted systematic search in January 2023 retrieve English records from ProQuest, ScienceDirect, Scopus, Web Science databases using keywords "skill gap," mismatch," shortage," "identifying or measuring," "Industry 4.0." In total, 40 articles met our predefined inclusion criteria, analyzed them descriptively qualitatively thematic analysis constant comparisons. We found that gaps certainly exist, concerns about growing have been raised worldwide. Our literature review also revealed need for common understanding gaps. Considering this, provided definition. Skill are an extremely nuanced phenomenon, so paying careful attention their definition interrelating social, environmental, technological factors when is essential. Since very few studies employed different methods perspectives research concept, more needed map actual gaps, which can only be done by considering
