A MyPad as a teaching aid can be a bridge or a border in children's learning of expression and communication, depending on how and why it is used. Onto genetic and phylogenetic aspects are among the most important in a child's development, i. e. teaching children to talk. Multimodality refers to communication and integration using various…

In recent years, the development of mobile technology and devices makes Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Augmented Reality (AR) available tools in classroom teaching and learning. AI and AR are used to improve the learning effect as well as motivate the students' learning enthusiasm. In English as a second language (ESL) learning, several previous…

This study developed a 5-step vocabulary learning (FSVL) strategy and a mobile learning tool in a situational English vocabulary learning environment and assessed their effects on the learning motivation and performance of English as a foreign language (EFL) students in a situational English vocabulary learning environment. Overall, 80 EFL…

The purpose of this study was to explore the effects of the context-aware ubiquitous learning (u-learning) approach versus traditional instruction on students' ability to answer questions that required different cognitive skills, using the framework of Bloom's taxonomy of educational objectives, including knowledge, comprehension, application,…

Instructional applications (apps) are educational software programs that can be accessed via mobile technologies (e.g., iPad, smartphone) and used to help students acquire various academic skills, including mathematics. Although research suggests that app-based instruction (AI) can be effective, there is a paucity of research comparing AI, to…

The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of mobile learning among young learners. Specifically, we investigated whether the use of mobile devices for data collection during field trips outside the classroom could enhance fourth graders' learning about the parts of the flower and their functions, flower pollinators and the process of…
