Yuanting Lu – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2023
Interactive web-based applets have proven effective in teaching statistics. This article presents new implementations of web-based applets primarily targeting a traditional introductory statistics course in two particular areas: (a) using real-time response data to engage students in simulations and (b) generating randomized datasets for…

Yujiao Mai; Ziqian Xu; Zhiyong Zhang; Ke-Hai Yuan – Grantee Submission, 2023
Structural equation modeling (SEM) is widely used in behavioral, social, and education research. Drawing publication-ready path diagrams for SEM is not a pleasant task with the existing software. The article introduces an open-source web-based graphical application, "semdiag," for drawing WYSIWYG SEM path diagrams interactively. The…

Salgo, Alexander; O'Shea, Galen; Hellemans, Kim; Davies, Jim – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2021
We introduce an open-source game-like educational software that teaches users about how action potentials work. The Postsynaptic Simulator requires users to demonstrate understanding of neural mechanisms to progress through levels, each of which teaches a different aspect of neuron activity. [For the full proceedings, see ED621108.]

Reid Proctor; Renee Hayslett – Journal of Teaching and Learning with Technology, 2024
Conventional team-based learning (TBL) uses a paper-based system to deliver a team-quiz component of the instructional method. We observed the use of this paper-based system in various settings and identified it could be challenging in a large classroom. Challenges include distributing paper answer cards, time to grade them, and additional…

Jeffery Buckley – Journal of Technology Education, 2024
The use of adaptive comparative judgement (ACJ) for assessment in technology education has been topical since its introduction to the field through the e-scape project coordinated by the Technology Education Research Unit in the United Kingdom. In the last decade, however, there has been an increasing volume of research examining how ACJ can and…

Arndt, Henriette L.; Granfeldt, Jonas; Gullberg, Marianne – Language Learning, 2023
This paper introduces the Lang-Track-App, a smartphone application and backend system to aid second language acquisition researchers in implementing the experience sampling method (ESM). Surveying research participants with the Lang-Track-App multiple times per day can yield exceptionally rich data that can be analyzed in multiple ways. This…

Mascret, Nicolas; Marlin, Kane; Laisney, Patrice; Castéra, Jérémy; Brandt-Pomares, Pascale – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
Based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), the aims of the present cross-sectional study were i) to investigate acceptance by teachers of an open-source, collaborative, free m-learning app, named "Artefac," ii) to examine whether teachers' self-approach goals (i.e., the motivation to teach more effectively than before) may be a…
