A Q-matrix is a binary matrix that defines the relationship between items and latent variables and is widely used in diagnostic classification models (DCMs), and can also be adopted in multidimensional item response theory (MIRT) models. The construction process of the Q-matrix is typically carried out by experts in the subject area of the items…

As augmented reality (AR) gains prevalence, various AR exhibits are being installed in science museums. However, few research has thus far examined the extent to which these exhibits can improve visitors' learning. This study qualitatively evaluates the effectiveness of an AR dinosaur exhibit at the Gwacheon National Science Museum in Korea and…

Fostering English reading interest and engagement among young learners in non-native settings demands innovative strategies. Previous studies emphasized the role of teachers in enhancing reading interest, for example, through dialogic reading due to its interactive nature. However, this approach is challenging to implement on a large scale.…

Recent solar eclipses provide relevant real-world contexts for learning about the scientific phenomena of the lunar phases. News coverage of the phenomenon may have raised questions such as, "Why does the Moon look different at different times, and sometimes as if it is not there?," and "What patterns can be found in the lunar…

Immersive virtual reality (VR) is anticipated to peak in development this decade bringing new opportunities for 3D multimodal designing across all levels of education. The need for students to gain capabilities with multimodal texts--texts that combine two or more modes, such as spoken, written, and visual--is emphasised at all levels of education…

The science process skills of elementary school students in Langsa city are still relatively low, despite these skills being a crucial element in science education based on the Merdeka curriculum. Additionally, teachers have reported several challenges, including the presence of abstract science material, textbooks that use two-dimensional…

Augmented reality (AR) has been regarded as a useful tool in writing education, with the goal of enhancing students' learning. However, questions still exist about the consistency of student motivation and their writing performance when participating in educational activities driven by AR. This study focused on AR-based writing courses, employing…

A significant body of research has focused on the impact of immersive virtual reality (IVR) on vocabulary retention, but little is known about how to integrate language learning theories in IVR-mediated vocabulary learning. This study aims to examine the effect of IVR that integrate input processing model on vocabulary retention for elementary…

Technology is the most widely used tool in daily life activities in today's society. This is primarily due to its accessibility for all types of users and its ability to quickly respond to problems that arise in everyday tasks. Its widespread use is extending into various fields of knowledge, including education. Within this domain, the use of…

Recently, Virtual reality (VR) technologies have started to be used increasingly in the field of education, as in many other fields. With the widespread use of virtual reality applications, there is a need to investigate the effects of virtual reality applications in the field of education. The results obtained from these researches can contribute…

This study is related to the transfer of the header motor skill in soccer from a virtual reality (VR) sport's training to the real world. A total of 61 children (37 females) between 9 and 11 years of age were distributed into three groups: a control group without training; a second group that was trained in an original VR environment developed by…

Incorporating technology into educational processes is increasingly necessary to address the complexities of contemporary learning environments. This study investigates the impact of Augmented Reality (AR) on the academic performance of third-grade students in the areas of graphs and geometry. A quasi-experimental design was employed, comparing a…

Aim/Purpose: The study investigated how immersive learning environments could be used to encourage student engagement and reuse intentions by integrating desktop augmented reality (AR) into the classroom among primary school students. Background: This paper addresses the potential applications of immersive technology for younger learners and…

As an effective teaching method, digital storytelling has gained significant prominence in the field of education in recent years. In contemporary digital storytelling instruction, stories are often presented through interactive whiteboards, computers, smartphones, or tablets. The introduction of immersive virtual reality (IVR) technology makes…
