As they become more common, automated systems are also becoming increasingly opaque, challenging their users' abilities to explain and interpret their outputs. In this study, we test the predictions of fuzzy-trace theory--a leading theory of how people interpret quantitative information--on user decision making after interacting with an online…

Web annotation environments are widely used in education based on the premise that student interaction in these environments benefits individual and group learning. However, there is little research on factors driving student interaction in web annotation activities. In this study we asked: What dynamics could explain social interaction among…

Personalized learning, which has the potential to raise student achievement, requires understanding the competencies of students. Visualizations can help provide this understanding. Jeon et al. (2021) presented a latent space model that creates interaction maps visualizing response patterns from item response data. My dissertation proposes…

Interactions between humans and smart products (i.e. digital components integrated in physical Internet of Things devices) are becoming more complex and less visible. Yet designers lack tools to capture these interactions and incorporate them into their design. In this paper we present the Human-Computer-Context Interaction (HCCI) tool that helps…

Upvotes serve important purposes in online social annotation environments. However, limited studies have explored the influential factors affecting peer upvoting in online collaborative learning. In this study, we analysed the factors influencing students' upvotes received from their peers as 91 participants utilized Perusall, an online social…

The Internet of Things is shifting the way people interact with each other, the way people interact with objects, and the way objects interact with each other.

The COVID-19 pandemic forced instruction into remote formats, rendering active learning efforts in business classrooms infeasible. In response, we adopt a novel model for interactive classroom activities by hosting classroom games on Google Sheets, the free and widely used cloud-based spreadsheet application. First developed for a synchronous Zoom…

Purpose: This article evaluated the utilization of an Internet-based, self-managed parent training program (i.e., Success with Stories [SWS]) designed to facilitate parental motivation about interactive storybook reading, perceived competence in their ability to engage in interactive storybook reading, and their reading practices and beliefs.…

The present study analyzed the use of conversation analysis (CA) in online interaction. The aim of the study is to describe the patterns of turn taking, repair, and the adjacency pairs in the online conversation. Employing a qualitative research methodology, data were taken from an online conversation about how to learn English, taking place in…

This study seeks to address knowledge gaps regarding the role of self-regulated learning as a mediator in the relationship between interactions, internet self-efficacy, and student satisfaction. We conducted a survey of 1590 students from north Indian universities about their level of satisfaction, self-regulated learning, internet self-efficacy,…

The study aims to study the processes of the interactive augmented reality technology via blended instruction lesson on cloud, to design the interactive augmented reality technology via blended instruction lesson on cloud, to develop the interactive augmented reality technology via blended instruction lesson on cloud and to study the results of…

The COVID-19 crisis has placed unique restrictions on social researchers in terms of how they conduct their research. It has also created opportunities for adaptation and critical reflection on methodological practice.
