Background: Notwithstanding the increasingly growing interest in the application of virtual reality in…

Educational technology (EdTech) possesses comprehensive content and an accumulation of topics requiring extensive analyses for monitoring its development over time. Conducting comprehensive analyses facilitates acquiring a plural perspective instead of subjective experiences and facilitates focusing on the places where deficiencies occur in the…

Serious video games provide a immersive learning environment for agriculture by simulating real-life challenges scenarios. However, empirical evidence of their effectiveness is sparse. This scoping review follows PRISMA-ScR guidelines to summarize literature on serious video games for agricultural learning, highlighting research trends and…

Background: An innovative and interactive real-world environment can be presented with augmented reality (AR) that comprises digital visual elements, audio, or other sensory information delivered via technology to enhance one's experience. AR has numerous potential applications in various everyday fields. The education sector is one such arena…

This systematic quantitative literature review (SQLR) spans from 2013 to 2023 and includes 40 research articles that meet the inclusion criteria. It explores the intersection of virtual reality (VR) and history education. This SQLR serves as a scoping of the field, discovering key contributors, publication trends, research types, geographic…

This study employs bibliometric methods to analyse impactful and emerging research topics in the digital education ecosystem, using Scopus data from 2019 to 2023. It introduces a new Impact Factor (IF) that considers productivity, growth rate, core papers, and citations to identify key research fronts. The top five areas identified were artificial…

Virtual reality (VR) has been shown to be beneficial for educational purposes and has emerged as a prevalent topic for teaching and learning. However, there is very little that is currently known about VR in the context of learning from different fields. This research is a systematic literature review which intends to investigate the future trends…

Virtual reality (VR) is a computer-generated environment where scenes and objects appear to be real, immersing the user in their surroundings. This systematic review aims to explore the benefits and challenges of VR and AR in higher education and to identify the trends and issues regarding courses and teaching methods in which VR and AR are…

This paper systematically reviews 150 (VR/AR)-supporting language learning articles from 2008 to 2019 and summarizes the development trends. The definition of VR/AR is given firstly, and then the model of VR/AR supporting learning is proposed. This model's language types, research participants, learning devices, learning goals, research issues,…

Augmented reality (AR), a cutting-edge technology, has the potential to change the way students learn by superimposing virtual items and information onto the real environment. Through more immersive and interesting interactions with digital content, AR might help students better understand difficult concepts and boost their drive to learn. As a…

The aim of the research is to investigate the role of Education 4.0 in innovative curricular practices and digital literacy, weaving logically with the central focus of the study on identifying new and emerging areas in the field.
