Using digital technologies in teaching and learning is a complex endeavour, and mixed evidence of impact suggests further consideration of related professional learning and development (PLD) is needed. In this endeavour, and more broadly, there are growing calls to frame PLD as complex. Kathryn Strom and Kara Viesca proposed in 2021 a complex…

Game-based learning, which includes non-digital and digital games, highlights the benefits of games in terms of players' learning and engagement. Whereas contemporary research focuses more on digital than non-digital game-based learning, more studies shall compare the effects between the two types of game-based learning and their integration. This…

Many teachers reported improved skills in using technology as a direct result of teaching virtually during the pandemic (Bushweller, 2020). The authors wondered which uses of technology would continue as teachers transitioned back into face-to-face classrooms. Recognizing that mere incorporation of technology into instruction does not guarantee…

With the advance of the Maker movement, teacher professional development is needed to prepare K-12 teachers for maker-centered instruction. This study examined the influence of teaching experience in learning maker-centered instruction. Data included surveys, 3D models, and maker lesson plans created by 162 in-service K-12 teachers. Results show…

The appearance of tablet technology in the classroom is considered an obvious modernisation milestone. In the last few years school professionals in Poland have made large investments in digitalisation, especially through one to one model (1:1), using digital devices such as tablets. Researches on tablet technology integration in school classrooms…

This study aimed to examine the integration of four elementary science teachers' technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) components during emergency remote teaching. Data sources included teaching video recordings and stimulated interviews conducted after analyzing the teachers' teaching videos. The data were analyzed by identifying…

Artificial intelligence (AI) shows increasing potential to improve mathematics instruction, yet integrative quantitative evidence currently is lacking on its overall effectiveness and factors influencing success. This systematic review and meta-analysis investigate the effectiveness of AI on improving mathematics performance in K-12 classrooms…

Mathematical and computational thinking (CT) are closely interrelated, yet CT integration into mathematics instruction remains limited. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the teaching process for straight-line equations in enhancing students' CT skills and to propose improvements based on the findings. A qualitative case study…

Technology-enhanced embodied learning is argued to have the potential to revolutionize K-12 education. Despite the affordances of technology-enhanced embodied learning, its integration in mainstream education is currently at slow pace. Slow adoption of technological innovation is not a new issue in the education arena. Several factors are…

The aim of this research was to get the opinions of primary school teacher candidates about flexible classrooms in which technology is integrated, the flexibility in the physical arrangement of the classrooms and the modern approach to classroom structuring, as opposed to the traditional classroom structure, and the role of teachers in these…

In-service teachers' professional development regarding technology adoption in education is often focused on only one specific technology. To maximize the utilization of technologies, teachers need to be able to leverage different technologies seamlessly. Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) is one of the most important frameworks…

Robots are useful tools for teaching mathematics and physics and engineering subjects in K-12 setting; they can be utilized in classrooms for explaining difficult and complex concepts because they capture the imagination of students. Rapid developments robotics technology in recent decade, institutions and researchers have employed robots to…

This study introduces a novel learning management model aimed at enhancing Thai language proficiency in sixth-grade students. Confronting challenges such as inadequate teaching resources and a lack of student-centric, practical activities in current Thai language education, this model integrates six key components: foundational principles and…

This study aims to implement an exemplary instructional design-based ICT integration to allow students to acquire both course achievement and knowledge society skills. The research used the case study method. The participants consist of 30 students, who attend the course of Science and Technology at the 7th grade level in a state school, along…

The purpose of this study was to determine in-service teachers' ability to integrate instructional technology into their lesson plans. The Technology Acceptance Model 2 (TAM 2) survey was used to measure self-reported perceived ability of technology integration. Teacher self-efficacy, computer self-efficacy, and self-efficacy towards technology…
