Cognitive maps are mental representations of space essential for guiding spatial behavior. To assess the properties of these cognitive maps, sketch mapping has been widely used as a research tool in spatial cognition research. This scoping review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the methodologies and the cognitive processes concerning…

Methodological advancements for the study of learning processes are both shaped by and drivers of technology developments. Interaction Analysis (IA), as a core methodological approach over the past three decades is reflective of this relationship and can be understood by examining moves from analogue video tapes, to digital media, computational…

Scrolling is a widely used mean to interact with visual displays, usually to move content to a certain target location on the display. Understanding how user scroll might identify potentially suboptimal use and allows to infer users' intentions. In the present study, we examined where users click on a scrollbar depending on the intended scrolling…

Previous research showed that the parents acknowledged the technology's benefits for their young children's learning, however, they are still worried about the extended screen time, lack of physical activity and lack of social interactions. To address these concerns, we developed Kid Space to enable pedagogically appropriate technology use for…

Computer Aided Detection (CAD) has been used to help readers find cancers in mammograms. Although these automated systems have been shown to help cancer detection when accurate, the presence of CAD also leads to an over-reliance effect where miss errors and false alarms increase when the CAD system fails. Previous research investigated CAD systems…

Young children engage with digital technologies from a very young age. Often this is considered detrimental to their social development as it is seen as a socially isolating experience. This paper presents the findings of an Australian Research Council funded research project that focused on what characterises infants and toddlers peer-to-peer…

As technology becomes more important in our daily lives, teaching computer science in schools is becoming a priority. In 2022, the Tennessee General Assembly passed PC 979, a law requiring all public and charter schools to teach computer science at every grade level including kindergarten classrooms (Tennessee Department of Education, 2024). While…

An academic must both read and write papers. Generative artificial intelligence (AI) can now do both. I draw on Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics to argue that reliance on AI outsources activities and reduces virtues necessary to achieve the purpose of academia--flourishing through the cultivation of reason. I highlight empirical research suggesting…

Objectives: Faculty new to teaching operating systems or those looking to refresh their course need to understand the state of the art in operating system education. Toward this goal, we conducted a survey of operating system instructors to understand how they approach teaching the course and what textbook and software platforms they use in their…

Background and Aims: The internet and social media are increasingly accessible to people with intellectual disabilities, offering significant benefits but also posing unique challenges and risks. This study aimed to explore the online experiences of adults with intellectual disabilities in England. Methods: An accessible survey was conducted from…

Guided by the Differential Susceptibility to Media Effects model, we examined the relations between parents' anxiety over their children's futures and their attitudes toward playful media for children and media featuring principles of direct instruction, as moderated by parent race (N = 600, quota sampled for race, children ages 3-7). Research has…

Purpose: Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has received significant traction in recent years for its ability to generate content based on human inputs. The aim of this study is to examine the existing literature on GenAI in management education by conducting a combination of bibliometric analysis and systematic literature review and…

This study aims to examine the studies on computer-assisted teaching in science teaching in terms of different variables with bibliometric analysis. Scopus database was used to collect the data. The phrase "science education and computer-assisted teaching" was written in Scopus on 11_07_2023, and 1232 publications were found. Since not…

With children's digital technology usage surging in post-pandemic Canada, it is imperative to understand children's digital literacy and multimodal practices. This study investigated potential predictors of children's digital literacy and multimodal practices at home, and the latent profiles of digital families. A sample of 413 parents of children…

In the information age, individuals' ability to access, use, and transfer information is fundamental for personal and professional success. Digital and research literacy are critical skills that strengthen teachers' professional competencies in contemporary educational processes. This study examines the correlation between teachers' proficiency in…
