Notwithstanding the growing advantages of incorporating Augmented Reality (AR) in science education, the pedagogical use of AR combined with Pedagogical Agents (PAs) remains underexplored. Additionally, few studies have examined the integration of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) into science education to create GAI-enhanced PAs (GPAs)…

Background/purpose. The increasing prevalence of digital tools in education necessitates models that enhance students' metacognitive skills. Despite this need, limited research exists on structured pedagogical approaches to foster metacognition within digital learning contexts. This study aimed to develop and evaluate the Cognitive Innovation…

While augmented reality (AR) technology has shown the potential to facilitate students' hands-on activities, few studies have explored its effectiveness in acoustic topics. This paper introduces an AR-based application for learning about the Doppler effect and investigates its educational effectiveness on students' learning achievement, interest,…

This research aims to reveal the effects of using augmented reality applications on seventh-grade secondary school students' academic achievement and motivation and to identify students' views on augmented reality applications. For this purpose, the augmented reality application called "CellAR" has been developed for the "Cell and…

This study examines the impact of educational robotics applications in Information Technologies and Software courses on the motivation, attitude towards robotics, and academic achievement of 6th-grade secondary school students. The research employed pre-experimental method encompassing 112 students. Students got training in robotics using the…

The presence of tablets and laptops in schools has burgeoned in recent years, with $4.9 billion spent on over 10.8 million devices in 2015. Despite the large and increasingly prevalent monetary and time investments in education technology, little causal evidence of its effectiveness exists. I estimate the effect of a Math and English Language Arts…

The purpose of this quantitative ex post facto study was to examine if, and to what extent there was a statistically significant difference in achievement, in social studies and science, as assessed by student achievement (ACH) scores between males and females within a technology-enhanced learning environment in a school district in the Southeast.…

There is increasing educational interest in immersive virtual reality (IVR) applications which aid student learning and performance. However, few empirical studies have investigated the potential for implementing the technology in middle-school social studies classrooms. This study employed a quasi-experimental approach to address this issue,…

Augmented reality (AR) has become a potential technology tool to improve the learning experiences among students with special needs. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of learning materials using AR technology activities on the learning experiences of students with special needs. In this study, a quasi-experimental study is…

Given the rapid rate at which educational technology is continually evolving compounded by the rapid transition to digital learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and its aftermath, this research seeks to understand how one-to-one Chromebooks impact a variety of facets of the middle school science classroom. In three separate, yet related…

Microlearning is a modern learning modality that has been adopted in recent years for student education. This study aimed to reveal the effect of video-based microlearning on the development of programming skills and technology acceptance among intermediate school students. The study used a quasi-experimental design for two groups. A technology…

As a promising tool for improving math education and closing the achievement gap, the use of educational technology has dramatically expanded in K-12 education in recent years, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic. ASSISTments was one of the few digital learning programs recommended for use in response to the COVID-19 pandemic (Sahni et al.,…

The study implements and investigates an innovative learning approach that incorporates Flipped Classroom (FC) methodologies and electronic assessment (e-assessment) in Context-Based Learning (CBL) in chemistry among middle school students. The study incorporated mixed methods strategies and (a) examined learners' attitudes toward and perceptions…

Background/purpose. Developing language skills and keeping up with technology have become crucial for the efficient use of technology in language education. This study examined the effect of teaching reading and listening skills with activities supported by Web 2.0 applications on fifth-grade secondary school students' reading and listening…

This study examines the effect of using a personal response system (PRS) on students' academic performance and attitude towards science and technology. The study is conducted during the spring semester of the 2018-2019 academic year in a secondary school in northwestern Turkey. The study is designed as a pre-test and post-test control group…
