Virtual reality (VR) has gained prominence and a growing prevalence. However, parental attitudes toward using VR for educational purposes (i.e., educational VR (EVR)) are under-researched. This study investigates parents' perceptions and experiences regarding the use of EVR, focussing on mathematics learning. Using the technology acceptance model…

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of the duration of students' augmented reality (AR) experience on reading comprehension and cognitive load in reading activities carried out with an augmented reality storybook. The participants are 134 secondary school students aged between 11 and 12 attending a school in Antalya. They were…

The development of best strategies for improving learning engagement in the field of mental health nursing education, is a challenge for teachers. Using self-reflection, students are facilitated to actively participate in their own learning process, improving their efforts to understand and perform best practice for patients. This study aimed to…

This paper examines the utility of virtual simulation as an inclusive learning activity. Using a framework derived from literature, the Virtual Simulated International Placements (VSIP) were developed, and we explored the experiences of learners and facilitators to identify the pedagogical practices that they adopted during the learning activities…

Daily living activities (DLAs) are crucial for people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Immersive learning technologies (ILTs), such as virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), serious games (SGs), and the metaverse, are emerging and expanding globally as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. In the virtual world, metaverse technology is…

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 improve the oral retelling skills of primary school third grade students by using augmented reality-based reading environments. The research was carried out on 88 primary school third grade students studying in the city center of Siirt. Purposful sampling method was used in the selection of students. Formative experiment…

The primary goal of this research was to examine the impact of Augmented Reality (AR) based virtual interaction and physical interaction on the development of spatial skills in Xining Qinghai, China's primary school students (aged 8 to 10). The research was conducted in a public-school setting with 54 participants using a quasi-experimental…

Deep learning is a very popular topic in computer sciences courses despite the fact that it is often challenging for beginners to take their first step due to the complexity of understanding and applying Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). Thus, the need to both understand and use neural networks is appearing at an ever-increasing rate across all…

Interventions utilizing human-computer interaction (HCI) in autism rehabilitation have gained popularity, yet their efficacy has not been fully elucidated. This meta-analysis assessed 30 international studies from the past decade that employed HCIs for autism intervention. The findings revealed a moderate positive effect (g = 0.484) on improving…

Novice nurses often report a disconnect between textbook knowledge and realworld practice which damages their confidence in providing clinical care to patients. Nursing students indeed encounter numerous challenges in clinical environments such as inadequate resources and a gap between learning theory and clinical practice. To close the…

This paper reported an AR based teaching method adopted during the movement control period for undergraduate engineering students to perform electrical machine laboratory. In this work, Unity 3D development platform and Vuforia Engine software development kit are applied to create the AR system. The content of the practical component is projected…

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,…

This study aimed to determine the importance of socialization through sports as exemplified by athletics using interactive technologies for better socialization of students. The Small Group Socialization Scale (SGSS) was utilized for the measurement of socialization. The researchers conducted the study based on the Physical Education Department…

With the growing popularity of Virtual Reality (VR), the integration of the Community of Inquiry (CoI) framework provides insights into its role in facilitating student learning in VR environments. VR offers immersive experiences and visualization of abstract concepts. However, the abundance of information in VR can be overwhelming without proper…
