Villena Taranilla, Rafael; Cózar-Gutiérrez, Ramón; González-Calero, José Antonio; López Cirugeda, Isabel – Interactive Learning Environments, 2022
Virtual Reality is an emerging educational technology due to its potential immersive, interactive and imaginative characteristics supporting pupils in the learning process towards meaningful learning. Furthermore, the current teaching of history is generally too traditional, making the subject being perceived as pointless and boring by students.…

Chen, Yen-Chieh; Lu, Yu-Ling; Lien, Chi-Jui – Interactive Learning Environments, 2021
Students' engagement in a learning environment has been a crucial factor in evaluating the quality of learning and predicting their academic success. With technologies being more applied in science education for enhancing learning engagement, it is important to study how learning environments with different levels of technological engagement…

Slavko Žitnik; Glenn Gordon Smith – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
In the recent, and ongoing, COVID-19 pandemic, remote or online K-12 schooling became the norm. Even if the pandemic tails off somewhat, remote K-12 schooling will likely remain more frequent than it was before the pandemic. A mainstay technique of online learning, at least at the college and graduate level, has been the online discussion. Since…

Akman, Emrah; Çakir, Recep – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
Recently, virtual reality seems to be deevloping rapidly. However, it can be said that virtual reality is in the early days of adoption for education. Studies show that using virtual reality in education can positively affect students' learning experiences. In this study, the effect of an educational virtual reality game, named "Kesfet…

Shenglin Cao; Juan Chu; ZuoChen Zhang; Liyan Liu – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
VR technology is being widely used in education due to it's a sense of immersion, real-time interaction, and ability to stimulate imagination. However, there is a lack of research comparing students at different stages. This study used a quasi-experimental design involving 73 fourth-grade and 86 eighth-grade students in two schools in northwest…

Chang, Rong-Chi; Chung, Liang-Yi; Huang, Yong-Ming – Interactive Learning Environments, 2016
The learning of plants has garnered considerable attention in recent years, but students often lack the motivation to learn about the process of plant growth. Also, students are not able to apply what they have learned in class in the form of observation, since plant growth takes a long time. In this study, we use augmented reality (AR) technology…

Kim, Heesung; Ke, Fengfeng – Interactive Learning Environments, 2017
This experimental study was intended to examine whether the integration of game characteristics in the OpenSimulator-supported virtual reality (VR) learning environment can improve mathematical achievement for elementary school students. In this pre- and posttest experimental comparison study, data were collected from 132 fourth graders through an…

Song, Donggil; Karimi, Arafeh; Kim, Paul – Interactive Learning Environments, 2016
Teaching argumentation with appropriate activities and strategies would support a wide range of goals in science education. Though science labs have been suggested and employed for argumentation activities, such educational expenditures are likely to be beyond the means of most schools in under-resourced areas. Due to the lack of appropriate…

Bhagat, Kaushal Kumar; Liou, Wei-Kai; Michael Spector, J.; Chang, Chun-Yen – Interactive Learning Environments, 2019
Augmented reality (AR) is growing in popularity in teaching and learning due in part to powerful new technologies. What has yet to be well established is when and with which learners and learning tasks AR is an effective approach. Therefore, the aim of this study was to examine the effectiveness of using AR-based formative assessment for improving…

Zuiker, Steven J.; Wright, Kyle – Interactive Learning Environments, 2015
This design-based research study considers the learner-generated design and refinement of a school garden. We report one enactment of the Connected Gardening project in order to illuminate and understand how a fourth-grade class organizes and refines its garden plot using observations of the physical environment and evaluations of data from a…

So, Hyo-Jeong; Seow, Peter; Looi, Chee Kit – Interactive Learning Environments, 2009
This article examines the potential of mobile computing and Web 2.0 technology to support knowledge building in formal and informal settings. Desktop-based knowledge building tools have limited affordances of supporting one-to-one access, learning "in situ," and seamless integration in and out of school environments. In this initial…
