This article presents the first iteration of the video analytics system VA4ME that enables the logging of video interactions in Moodle without the need to provide the videos by a separate plugin or website. Instead, the logging plugin injects, if allowed within a course, JavaScript code that logs video interactions and transforms these logs into…

Supporting learners' self-regulated learning (SRL) processes and skills is crucial for effective learning, especially in online learning environments. In recent years, research on SRL and how it can be supported by technology has proliferated, resulting in many systematic reviews. The aims of this umbrella review are to provide orientation in a…

This paper explores co-design in Japanese education for deploying data-driven educational technology and practice. Although there is a growing emphasis on data to inform educational decision-making and personalize learning experiences, challenges such as data interoperability and inconsistency with teaching goals prevent practitioners from…

While technological change in organizations is fast and eminent to most people, the adoption of Massive Open Online Courses, micro-credentials, and flexible and scalable online courses, appear to be comparatively slow in Higher Education in the Nordic countries. To explore this phenomenon, we completed 10 qualitative interviews at ten different…

In science and engineering education, remote laboratories are designed to bring ubiquity to experimental scenarios, by having real laboratories operated through the Internet. Despite that remote laboratories enable the collection of students' work data, the educational use of these data is still underdeveloped. Learning analytics dashboards are…

This conceptual paper draws on a wide range of research and policy literature, providing a contemporary view of issues, factors and practices that affect education for digitally excluded populations. Concern for how education for digitally excluded populations can be supported is focal to this paper, with different sections offering key related…

Ensuring quality education for all students requires teachers to possess knowledge and skills in utilising digital technologies effectively for teaching and learning. This study explored how pre-service teachers (PSTs) perceive their digital attitude, efficacy, literacy, engagement, and understanding of digital technologies in an online learning…

Educational games help reinforce educational concepts. They help students learn through hypothesizing, probing, and reflecting upon the game environment. Understanding the impact of a game is important before deploying it in a class. Recent studies in learning analysis describe methodologies and approaches for analyzing educational games. However,…

In an era marked by the widespread use of digital technology, educators face the need to constantly learn and develop their own new literacies for the information era, as well as their competencies to teach and apply best practices using technologies. This paper underscores the vital role of ongoing teacher professional learning (OTPL) with a…

Schools have been responding to the ongoing digital transformation, which requires continuous self-reflection and decision-making skills from teachers in the inclusion of new digital technologies in the teaching and learning process. In the present study, descriptive measures were used to understand how 140 teachers, in a school group, perceived…

EdTech companies can develop tools and services for educational institutions. The EdTech sector needs teachers as end-users to create services and tools that serve the users' real needs. Co-creation in the EdTech sector is essential for bridging the gap between developers' and educators' needs. By collaboratively designing learning technologies,…

This emerging technology report delves into the role of ChatGPT, an OpenAI conversational AI, in language learning. The initial section introduces ChatGPT's nature and highlights its features, including accessibility, personalization, immersive learning, and instant feedback, which render it a valuable asset for language learners and educators…

In contrast to traditional views of instructional design that are often focused on content development, researchers are increasingly exploring learning experience design (LXD) perspectives as a way to espouse a broader and more holistic view of learning. In addition to cognitive and affective perspectives, LXD includes perspectives on…

Theorists and educators increasingly highlight the importance of computational thinking in STEM education. While various scaffolding strategies describe how to best support this skillset (i.e., paired programming, worked examples), less research has focused on the design and development of these digital tools. One way to support computational…

The purpose of this pilot study is to learn whether and to what extent, the introduction of podcasts and podcasting into teacher education classes improves the educational experience for preservice teachers. A survey and individual interviews were analyzed through the lens of Garrison et al.'s (2000) model of community inquiry, which involves…
