Taking into account the profound impact of technology on modern education, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, increasing academic interest has focused towards the design and application of such tools on different learning contexts. A specific area of Human-Computer Interaction, called affordance theory, focuses on the perception, design and…

In-class group work activities are found to promote the interpersonal skills of learners. To support the teachers in facilitating such activities, we designed a learning analytics-enhanced technology framework, Group Learning Orchestration Based on Evidence (GLOBE) using data-driven approaches. In this study, we implemented the algorithmic group…

Team-Based Learning (TBL) has been widely applied in different fields (courses) and has been indicated to be efficient. Meanwhile, many studies have asserted that Group awareness (GA) information, which visually displays peers' learning context and activities, can increase peer participation within an online collaborative learning environment. As…

Motivation is key to the generation of creative ideas, intrinsic motivation is the core driving force of creativity. Researchers believe that individuals with higher intrinsic motivation will produce higher novelty and flexibility. Creativity may also be influenced by environmental cues, which are objects in the environment that individuals can…

Mobile phones are now used ubiquitously in everyday life around the world. However, using mobile devices for learning activities (i.e. m-learning) is not as popular as initially expected. This study explores the factors that affect m-learning apps acceptance among mobile phone users and investigates how personality, readiness, and motivation…

This paper aims to study the features of vocal improvisation using interactive musical technologies. The survey method contributed to determining the level of vocal skills of 214 respondents auditioned before the experiment. The authors developed a training programme based on previously received information. It included breathing, technical,…

Motion-sensing technology (MST) is an emerging educational technology with great potential. However, the effects of MST on language learning are still controversial. This is the first meta-analysis to examine the effectiveness of MST-assisted language learning. This research integrates 31 effect sizes from 21 independent studies (2013-2022). The…

Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning is a promising innovation that ameliorates tutoring through modern technologies. However, the way of recommending collaborative activities to learners, by taking into account their learning needs and preferences, is an important issue of increasing interest. In this context, this paper presents a framework…

The main aim of this research was to improve a blended learning course, by adding specific online activity that will improve learning outcomes and enable producing, collecting and analysing educational data. Moodle LMS, a widely used, well-known learning environment, was used for realisation of the online activity. Data collected over LMS Moodle…

A lack of student questioning is faced by many universities, where a large lecture is a common practice. Emerging technologies bring about possibilities to fill this gap. This study followed constructivist learning theory and used a digital canvas as a Digital Question Board (DQB) for students to freely pose questions and respond using mobile…

New challenges in education demand effective solutions. Although Learning Analytics (LA), Educational Data Mining (EDM) and the use of Big Data are often presented as a panacea, there is a lot of ground to be covered in order for the EDM to answer the real questions of educators. An important step toward this goal is to implement holistic…

This paper introduces the Wearable Story, an interactive storytelling jacket designed for young children to facilitate their story listening experience while learning through play. The wearable medium supports embodied learning by providing experiences through which children are encouraged to use their bodies to learn. With the jacket, children…

The study investigated children's attitudes toward and impressions of a narrated stop-motion animation called "slowmation" and the relationship between the variables when learning with slowmation. An analogue scale and an ordinal scale were used respectively to collect children's learning attitude and learning impression data. A total of…

To better understand the self-regulated learning process in online learning environments, this research applied a data mining method, the two-layer hidden Markov model (TL-HMM), to explore the patterns of learning activities. We analyzed 25,818 entries of behavior log data from an intelligent tutoring system. Results indicated that students with…

The purpose of the present study is to attain a better understanding of Collaborative Learning in Informal Spaces (CLIS) by addressing the nature of learning activities that will trigger socio-cognitive conflicts and the kind of socio-emotional challenges experienced in CLIS. To this end, research was conducted over four weeks where tasks were…
