The Author Respons

Dear editor/reviewer of iJIM

My article titled “The Implementation of E-Learning Supported by Social Reality Videos in Mobile Applications: Its Impact on Students’ Learning Outcomes” has been approved in line with the reviewer comments and suggestions. The following writer’s responses are related to revisions in the body of the manuscript.

No Reviewer comments Author's response

1 Introduction:

The introduction needs to be developed further to establish the justification/ importance of the new initiative and articulate the research problem and objective; these need to be linked explicitly to the associated issues and problems. The introduction would benefit from a succinct description of the paper and a stronger emphasis on the problem addressed by the research.

Suggestions for improvements:

The introduction flow can be improved by discussing the paper's research problem.

A further critical discussion needs to be done to concretize the issues/ problem statement.

The part of introduction has been improved with emphasizing the research issues, and elaborating the new initiative to concretize problem solving in this study.

2 Literature review

The LR section can be improved by including recent studies and identifying and drawing upon the critical body of knowledge relevant to the research, including learning theories. Overall, the literature review needs to be strengthened to emphasize the real-world significance of the issues addressed, and this informs the research design; the theoretical framework emerging from the literature review should relate to the research questions and points of emphasis.

The literature review should be more carefully synthesized and structured. The author can use sub- headings and signposting to help the reader follow the developed argument and improve the paper's

readability. Consider also the following suggestions:

a) Include a few introductory lines to indicate what the review will cover, outlining the purpose and scope.

b) Present past work and identify the gaps in the previous work that the findings from the proposed study may shed some light on.

c) Focus more on the empirical studies' backgrounds.

d) Add more information to enable readers' understanding of the authors' view.

Write concisely and avoid repetitive statements. It is also recommended to use more recent studies regarding the scope of the study. You are encouraged to read, for instance, the following papers to get some ideas on using educational technology to cultivate critical thinking regarding the problem statements:

Katsaris, I., & Vidakis, N. (2021). Adaptive e-learning systems through learning styles: A review of the literature. Advances in Mobile Learning Educational

In this part, I have revised some parts in line with reviewer’s comments and suggestions.

The manuscript has been strengthened to emphasize the real-world significance of the research issues. I have also provided information of the research design; and the theoretical framework emerging from the literature review.

The part of literature review has been synthesized and structured in accordance with reviewer’s comments. The author also adds some information to help the reader follow the developed argument and improve the paper's readability.
