This study tested the notion that the impact of clarity (i.e., structure) on learning is indirect and occurs, in part, through the reduction of cognitive load and subsequently through students' motivation to process instructional information. Two hundred fifty-two students were randomly assigned to one of two text-based lessons (clear or unclear)…

A cancer diagnosis enlivens the question of what it means to live well with the Earth and its multidimensional beings, including the children I teach. A cancer diagnosis provides a necessary push to step out from the confines of a self and toward and into the wild fray of this life. I interpret my lived experiences through the practical philosophy…

The application and investigation of various virtual world experiences in language learning have been on the rise. However, mixed reality (MR) has received limited attention due to its ambiguous concepts, unclear affordances, and insufficient incorporation of theoretical frameworks. To promote the investigation and implementation of MR-enhanced…

Student teams are routine in business education, yet instructors lack research-based strategies to promote personal learning in teams. Our study's purpose therefore is to investigate how a dual emphasis on social identity and individual autonomy in teams may enhance students' personal learning. In a study of 557 business undergrads in 215 teams,…

In the midst of the dynamics of globalization and the industrial revolution 4.0, the 21st century education is increasingly evident in equipping the younger generation with relevant and adaptive skills. These skills include critical thinking skills, creativity, collaboration, and effective communication. In an effort to improve the quality of…

It is critical to develop students' science communication skills as they progress through their education. One way this goal can be accomplished is by integrating Flip into educational programs. Through Flip educators create prompts that students respond to in video form, which leads to deeper discussion on various topics. This brief will share an…

This book examines how an understanding of social-cultural and resource dynamics can inform the development of context-sensitive approaches to the early education and care of young deaf children, and the support of their caregivers. The authors investigate what it takes to facilitate deaf children's progress through early childhood, focusing on…

The aim of this study is to systematically examine graduate studies on digital game addiction in the field of education. Document analysis technique was used in the study. The 57 graduate studies included in the study were determined by criterion sampling. The data obtained was analyzed using content analysis. As a result of the study, it was seen…

Digital games and related technologies are increasingly transcending their traditional boundaries, as evidenced by the expanding field of serious and pervasive games. The concept of "gamification" represents the latest phase in this evolution, referring to the integration of game-like elements into nongame contexts to enhance user…

This paper proposes a human-centered approach to using Artificial Intelligence (AI) in higher education that promotes equitable access to knowledge while preserving privacy and ethics. Through the lens of third-generation Activity Theory we examine the interaction between three activity systems in higher education: AI teachers, human teachers, and…

Contemporary education adopts various new visualisation techniques for content to be learned. Recently, research on the application of 3D modelling and printing (3DMP) has been expanding. However, as the latest literature reviews indicate, little research is available on the contribution of 3DMP to learning of students with blindness (SWB) and…

Biology and biotechnology are increasingly ubiquitous and genome research will define the 21st century as the century of biology (Venter & Cohen, 2004). Comprehension of biology is needed to engage with major public policy issues and to make informed decisions (Barton & Uphadyay, 2010; Ladson-Billings, 2003; NRC, 2012; Walker, 2021).…
