Currently, 50 + learning systems supporting student question-generation (SQG) activities have been developed. While generating questions of different types is supported in many of these systems, systems allowing students to generate questions around a scenario (i.e. student testlet-generation, STG) are not yet available. Noting the increasing…

The advent of digitalisation and the spread of online platforms have transformed the way educational materials are delivered, creating unprecedented learning opportunities. This innovative modality, capable of initiating a paradigm shift, enables students to obtain their education from virtually any location. The main objective of this research…

This study aimed to investigate the pre-service teachers' behavioural intentions about using gamification tools and the critical factors affecting their usage. The data were collected from 313 pre-service teachers from two large-scale universities in Turkey through a questionnaire with seven constructs: perceived ease of use, usefulness,…

The study is conducted on 558 under-graduate students in Romania and Spain to examine potential differences in perception and acceptance items towards using web-based technologies. The research model is based on the Internet Attitude Scale (IAS) and measures Perceived Enjoyment, Perceived Anxiety, Perceived Usefulness and Computer Self-Efficacy.…

There are many examples of hybrid simulation models in healthcare education which are designed to simulate specific scenarios. However, there appears to be a need for a cost effective and configurable hybrid simulation platform which can be used by educators of various healthcare disciplines to simulate different scenarios. The purpose of this…

Purpose: Research has shown that the much-anticipated technology revolution in higher education has failed to come to fruition. The arrival of 'digital natives' millennial students to higher education was presume to present even greater challenge concerning technology use. In light of these gaps, this research aims to capture higher education…

Cross-cultural learning projects were carried out in learning environments created using Web 1.0 or Web 2.0 technologies in previous related studies. However, such environments have a limited ability to provide learners with immersive learning experiences of a foreign culture and fail to make them feel virtually present in a foreign cultural…

Today, use of the Web 2.0 technologies and applications (e.g. text messaging, wikis, personal web pages, social networks, blogs) in many different areas of education have been increasing, and this can be seen as an important development. However, teaching candidates from specific subject matters, such as physical education, still appear unaware of…

The present study sought to investigate factors influencing Iranian EFL teachers' adoption of Web 2.0 technologies in light of the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) and technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) theoretical frameworks. A hypothesized structural model consisting of seven pertinent constructs based…

The study aimed to investigate the Arab English language learners' readiness towards and effectiveness of using Web 2.0 applications in language learning process at a university in Malaysia. Using a quantitative research design, 50 Arab postgraduates responded to a questionnaire about their readiness towards and effectiveness of Web 2.0…

The increasing popularity of computers and computer networks has facilitated the use of Web Based Learning Resources (WBLR) in education. Many institutions are investing in the development of WBLR to facilitate the learning process, and WBLR have become very popular among management students. The present study investigated the impact of…

Teachers' intention to use technology is a major factor in its effective use in learning including in developing countries. This research empirically investigated on factors that influence Pre-Service Science Teachers' (PSSTs) intention to use Web 2.0 in learning through Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) in Indonesia. The goals of the research…

In recent years, there has been an exponential growth of the explorations around the pedagogical use of Web 2.0 technologies in China. This study offers an alternate perspective by examining predictors of pre-service teachers' uptake of Web 2.0 technologies for teaching purposes. On the basis of prior related research focusing on the pedagogical…

Information Communication Technology (ICT) is becoming valuable tools to help improve education, especially during teaching and learning of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) subjects. In this regard, we conducted this study to explore the usability of ICT tools in Physics taught courses. To collect data, we used classroom…

In the literature, there is a scarcity of studies investigating the factors influencing the deployment of mobile Web 2.0 (MW2.0) as pedagogical tools in higher education. The purpose of this study is to investigate the adoption of mobile Web 2.0 learning (MW2.0L) by students and further to explore their perceived learning. Accordingly, a research…
