Creativity and computational thinking (CT) have been recognized as crucial skills for the twenty-first century and have been extensively researched in recent years. However, their connections have not yet been fully understood, and there is room to expand the body of knowledge. This study examines the impact of an intervention program to increase…

Effective analysis and demonstration of these data features is of great significance for the optimization of interactive learning environment and learning behavior. Therefore, we take the big data set of learning behavior generated by an online interactive learning environment as the research object, define the features of learning behavior, and…

This study presents a panoramic overview of research conducted between 2010 and 2020 on how the Personal Learning Environment (PLE) supports Self-Regulated Learning (SRL). We elaborate on why the PLE is suitable for SRL, discuss its research themes, explain how the PLE supports SRL and outline the available PLE platforms. The review method we used…

We implemented a systematic literature review to investigate the trends and issues of learning analytics in seamless learning environments. We collected and analyzed a total of 27 empirical journal articles that study and discuss learning analytics design and implementation in seamless learning environments. In a recent decade, researchers have…

This article analyzes the relationship between self-regulated learning (SRL) and personal learning environments (PLE) in light of the educational academic literature of the decade 2010-2020. This study uses a systematized literature review followed by a qualitative analysis of the most cited literature to establish a narrative that highlights and…

Idea generation in interactive learning environments requires the consideration of the interactivity and materiality aspects of creativity. In educational robotics, idea generation is mediated through a technological object in a process allowing us to observe the three main components of divergent thinking: fluency, flexibility, and originality.…

This qualitative case study aimed to explore how novice instructional designers solved a real-world problem by proposing an instructional design model in Second Life. Twenty-one novice instructional designers who enrolled in a Distance Education course were tasked with proposing an instructional design model to solve the high drop-out rate problem…

This study was carried out to understand and explain nursing students' experiences of operating room (OR) practice via distance education and their perceptions of career goals, feelings, and thoughts within the scope of social cognitive career theory (SCCT). The study used a qualitative design based on Heidegger's hermeneutic phenomenological…

A virtual classroom constructed with virtual reality technology enables a more intuitive and immersive experience for learners. The classroom climate is an important factor affecting students' learning experience and performance in a virtual environment. However, there is a lack of research on the role of climate on learning experience and…

Smart education, with its intelligent, individualized, and technologized content, represents people's lofty expectations for future education. It provides a good learning platform for teaching and an important environment in which students' digital learning power can be developed in the context of the information technology era. Digital learning…

Interactive learning environments can generate massive learning behavior data and the support of learning behavior big data can ensure the completeness of data analysis and robustness of relationship verification. In this study, learning behaviors are divided into training set and testing set, BP neural network and recurrent Elman network are…

Knowledge Building Communities (KBCs) are principled-based, interactive learning environments designed to scaffold higher levels of student agency and the formulation of goals and questions stemming from students' knowledge-building needs. The design of KBCs is guided by a set of 12 principles that have been examined across hundreds of studies.…

The onslaught of COVID-19 has fundamentally upended the landscape of learning in universities. Learners from diverse backgrounds were abruptly forced into the sphere of online learning. Therefore, question arises whether learners from different backgrounds or learners' characteristics, together with their learning environment, would impact the…

In professional training courses, developing incumbents' professional knowledge and problem-solving skills when facing clinical and urgent situations is a crucial point. In conventional professional training, usually the learning content is delivered in a lecture-based mode using instructional videos with some case studies. In such a training…

The COVID-19 pandemic has forced many educators and students to embrace a "new normal" in learning that relies on online-learning approaches to alleviate the disruptions caused by the outbreak. In this context, the use of Web-based videoconferencing supported online lessons (WVCOL) has been offered as a solution to provide a learning…
