Background: Children presenting to hospitals during the preoperative period are often exposed to procedures that cause significant stress. Through preoperative interventions, nurses play an important role in relieving the anxiety of children and their parents. Objective: This study was conducted to determine the effect of audio-visual methods on…

Dementia patients may have language barriers and decreased comprehension ability. Their family caregivers can feel frustrated when communicating with them. Poor communication hinders family caregivers from obtaining accurate health information about patients, and may also increase their emotional burden, affecting patient care quality. The present…

Although augmented reality has become one of the most commonly used materials that support learning, especially in learning geometric concepts, it is avoided to be used in the lessons due to its complex structure. At that point, artificial intelligence working as a personal assistant in many fields can help us learn to produce our own model with…

The metaverse is a virtual reality space that provides a novel and significant environment, fostering educational opportunities and serving as a rich platform for innovative forms of learning. This bibliometric analysis uses the Scopus database as a source for review, employing the PRISMA method to identify 270 articles, with visualisation…

Purpose: This study investigated the ecological validity of conventional voice assessments by comparing the self-perceived voice quality and acoustic characteristics of voice production during these assessments to those in a simulated environment with varying distracting conditions and noise levels. Method: Forty-two university professors (26…

The current cross-cultural education still faces problems such as low awareness and ability in cross-cultural education, low cultural sensitivity, shallow awareness of cross-cultural differences and poor cross-cultural ability to cooperate with others. The significance of this study lies in enhancing awareness and abilities in cross-cultural…

The purpose of this research is to develop the use of Virtual Reality (VR) and fieldwork with teenagers in two compulsory schools in the capital city area of Iceland. The study aims to understand how teenagers succeed in an enquiry driven work combining simple digital tools, such as mobile phones, when making 360° photos, analysing opportunities…

This systematic literature review explores learning analytics (LA) in serious games within virtual reality (VR) environments, focusing on studies from the International Conference on Learning Analytics and Knowledge (LAK) and the Journal of Learning Analytics (JLA). Conducted in two stages, the review identifies key domains where serious games in…

Virtual Reality technology (VRT) has rapidly evolved in recent years, revolutionizing various industries by providing immersive and interactive experiences. VRT is making a significant impact in the realm of dance teaching (DT). This study explores the innovative application of VRT in the realm of DT, aiming to revolutionize traditional…

The increasing popularity of mobile devices as alternative tools for learning has led to the adoption of virtual laboratory simulation (VLab) to enhance practical learning experiences. This paper introduces an interactive mobile learning application designed to facilitate medical students in learning ear anatomy using a three-dimensional model.…

The aim of this study is to design and develop an augmented reality based mobile application (HardwARe teaching material) based on the "Computer Systems" subject outcomes in the 5th grade curriculum. In the design and development phase of the HardwARe teaching material, the design-based research (DBR) method, which is frequently…
