Muhua Zhang; Chien-Yuan Su – Education and Information Technologies, 2025
Immersive virtual reality (IVR) is expected to create a greater sense of presence that might improve students' laboratory learning experiences. However, little research has verified the influence of presence on students' perceptions toward immersive laboratory learning. The current study, which is based on the expectation confirmation model,…

Anveshna Srivastava; Vihang Vaidya; Sahana Murthy; Chandan Dasgupta – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2024
Spatial perspective-taking (SPT) ability positively influences performance in STEM fields. While limited research studies have been done with school students, they have yielded inconclusive findings and, hence, here we report findings from our study with an augmented reality (AR) enhanced learning environment (ARELE), GeoSolvAR, on middle-school…

Neil O. Houser – Social Studies, 2024
In addition to the continuing need for citizens who can address the challenges of "human" communities, growing concerns have arisen regarding "all" life on the planet. Indeed, one of our most urgent conditions is the decline of the environment upon which all life depends. Yet, despite our concerns, there remain vastly differing…

Victor del Carmen Avendano Porras; Iris Alfonzo Albores; Sergio Andres Correal Cuervo – Turkish Online Journal of Distance Education, 2025
This research aimed to explore the dimensions and implications of the early use and integration of metaverses in public high schools in the region of the Altos de Chiapas, Mexico, through a sequential mixed methods approach. Initially, a standardized survey was administered to a stratified probabilistic sample of 1402 students from various schools…

Daniela Olea-Ibarra; Christian Hartmann; Maria Bannert – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2025
Background: Enjoyment and epistemic emotions are essential in education as they drive learners to actively and persistently engage with learning material. Augmented Reality (hereinafter referred to as AR) is an emerging educational tool that offers unique opportunities for immersive learning experiences. By incorporating AR into the learning…

Özeren, Seçil; Top, Ercan – Malaysian Online Journal of Educational Technology, 2023
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…

Cromley, Jennifer G.; Chen, Runzhi; Lawrence, LuEttaMae – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2023
The use of virtual reality (VR) in formal education has burgeoned in recent years, with enthusiastic uptake by teachers and instructors across a wide range of subject areas and academic disciplines. We conducted a systematic meta-analysis of effects of VR on Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics learning from middle school through…

Mešic, Vanes; Jusko, Aida; Beatovic, Bojana; Fetahovic-Hrvat, Amina – European Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2022
Students spend much time in doing their physics homework. Whether this effort results in deep learning depends on the quality of the mere homework. Therefore, we designed a minds-on simulation-based approach to physics homework and conducted a pretest-posttest quasi-experiment to compare its effectiveness to the effectiveness of traditional…

Yu-Jun Liao; Wernhuar Tarng; Tzu-Ling Wang – Education and Information Technologies, 2025
The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of employing an augmented reality (AR) lens imaging system on inquiry-based learning concerning junior high school students' science achievement, science learning motivation, and inquiry skills. For this purpose, an AR lens imaging learning system was developed specifically for the lens imaging…

Lazaro Lima; Ione Goulart; Luis Gonzaga Magalhães; Pedro Rangel Henriques – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2022
The challenges in learning and teaching computer programming relate to everyone who needs to prepare others for the digital world. Learning and teaching computer programming is a challenge because it requires persistence and dedication. Nowadays, Computational Thinking is understood as an essential skill to overcome those challenges. In this…

Su Cai; Xiaojie Niu; Yuxi Wen; Jiangxu Li – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
Inquiry-based learning (IBL) is one of the most important learning strategies. Augmented Reality (AR) is an effective way to support this strategy, which is considered conducive to enhance academic achievements of students during IBL. This paper investigated teacher-student interactions during AR-supported IBL by comparison and case study. First,…

Mailizar; Johar, Rahmah – International Journal of Instruction, 2021
The aim of this study is to examine factors that affect secondary students' behavioural intention to use GeoGebra Augmented Reality to support a projectbased geometry learning environment. To achieve this purpose, we adopted technology acceptance model (TAM). A total of 54 students from two lower secondary schools in Indonesia were involved in…

Kralova, Katerina; Fialova, Ludmila – Hungarian Educational Research Journal, 2021
Objective: A lack of movement in adolescence is a pressing issue for modern society. Physical education at school can have a major influence on the movement habits of adolescents, since it can offer curriculum that gives students ideas for leisure time while entertaining them and also respecting physical fitness goals. The aim of this work is to…

Wang, Hong-Syuan; Chen, Sufen; Yen, Miao-Hsuan – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2021
This study aims to examine the effectiveness of metacognitive scaffolding in different inquiry tasks related to optics. Two high school classes participated in this study. One class, the treatment group (n = 33), which integrated metacognitive prompts into the simulation-based inquiry, was compared to the other class, the control group (n = 34),…

Gloy, Kilian; Weyhe, Paul; Nerenz, Eric; Kaluschke, Maximilian; Uslar, Verena; Zachmann, Gabriel; Weyhe, Dirk – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2022
In order to improve learning efficiency and memory retention in medical teaching, furthering active learning seems to be an effective alternative to classical teaching. One option to make active exploration of the subject matter possible is the use of virtual reality (VR) technology. The authors developed an immersive anatomy atlas which allows…
