Background: The potential of adaptive feedback in digital educational games remains largely unexplored. Fractions are a suitable topic for investigating the effectiveness of adaptive feedback, as the complexity of this domain highlights the need for adequate feedback. Objectives: This study examines the effectiveness of explanatory adaptive…

Background: Computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) environments are hypothesised to offer a learning environment that satisfies basic psychological needs for autonomy, relatedness and competence, subsequently improving learning and motivational outcomes. However, the underlying mechanism of how basic psychological needs are fulfilled…

Background Study: The combination of artificial intelligence (AI) and foreign language learning is emerging as a significant trend in language education. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the impact of technology acceptance, attitude and motivation on behavioural intentions regarding the use of AI in language learning. Methods:…

Background: Providing students with information on their current performance could help them improve by stimulating their reflection, but negative feedback that saliently mirrors task-related failure can harm motivation. In the context of automated scoring based on artificial intelligence, we explored how feedback on written texts might be…

Background: Online learning is becoming increasingly popular among learners. To enhance the effectiveness of online learning, researchers have embedded an affective pedagogical agent (PA) on the computer screen to help regulate learners' emotions and support their learning. However, previous research has paid little attention to the effects of…

Background: Technology advancement changes not only interpreting practices but also its pedagogy, which has long been criticised for lacking authenticity in/out-of-classroom practices. Objective: This empirical research aims to develop a mobile-assisted language learning application powered by extended reality (XR). Shortened as 'XR MALL', this…

Background: Writing is integral to educational success at all levels and to success in the workplace. However, low literacy is a global challenge, and many students lack sufficient skills to be good writers. With the rapid advance of technology, computer-based tools that provide automated feedback are being increasingly developed. However, mixed…

Background: The integration of generative artificial intelligence (Gen-AI) into second language (L2) education has opened new possibilities for personalized and adaptive instruction. While Gen-AI has shown promise in supporting language production skills, its application in reading, particularly in pre-reading scaffolding, remains underexplored.…

Background: Computer-mediated writing classes have experienced a significant increase in popularity in recent years, serving as an effective modality for enhancing writing skills within an online framework. Objectives: This study seeks to bridge the gap in the literature by investigating the effectiveness of cognitive, social, and group-awareness…

Background: Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) shows promise in enhancing personalised learning and improving educational efficiency. However, its integration into education raises concerns about misinformation and over-reliance, particularly among adolescents. Teacher supervision plays a critical role in mitigating these risks and ensuring…

Background: Misconceptions are unjustified beliefs about a topic. Nonetheless, they are pervasive among educational practitioners. Although the internet can be a powerful tool to learn and debunk misconceptions, their use requires competencies like navigating through search engine results pages (SERPs), evaluating the reliability of content, and…
