Fuxing Wang; Xiaoxue Leng; Ziyi Kuang; Tingting Zhao – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2025
Background: Both eye movement modelling examples (EMMEs) and cues guide attention and improve learning in multimedia learning environments. EMME can act as a special form of cue. However, no studies have directly examined whether EMME would be superior to visual cues. Objective: The study was to investigate whether there were advantages of EMME…

Liu, Chen-Chung; Lin, Tsun-Wei; Cheng, Chia-Hui; Wen, Cai-Ting; Chang, Ming-Hua; Fan Chiang, Shih-Hsun; Tsai, Meng-Jung; Lin, Hung-Ming; Hwang, Fu-Kwun – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2022
Background: Collaborative computer simulations are available on some online platforms which support students at distributed locations to synchronously collaborate on the simulations to learn sciences. However, how students collaborate with each other in collaborative simulations is not clear. Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate…

Alyssa P. Lawson; Richard E. Mayer – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: Immersive virtual reality (IVR) is a new technology that could motivate learners, but also could contain distracting elements that increase cognitive demands on learners. In contrast, learning with conventional media, such as a narrated slideshow could be less motivating, but also less distracting. Objectives: This experiment…

Leah S. Mahler; Richard E. Mayer – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: Emotional design of multimedia lessons involves adding features that are intended to increase learner enjoyment and promote learning--such as adding narrative, anthropomorphizing non-human elements, and using warm colours. Objective: The present study extends this work to examine the potential of Japanese animation (anime) for…

Burke, Paul F.; Kearney, Matthew; Schuck, Sandy; Aubusson, Peter – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2022
Background: Mobile learning studies often focus on teachers' perspectives. This study instead considers students' experiences of learning with mobile devices (i.e., m-learning) in secondary school mathematics and science. Objectives: The research aims to describe the m-learning experiences of secondary mathematics and science students, and to…

Hwang, Gwo-Jen; Chang, Shao-Chen; Song, Yanjie; Hsieh, Min-Chuan – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2021
Scholars have suggested that flipped learning can be enhanced by designing effective in-class learning activities to improve students' higher order thinking skills. Problem posing has been recognized as such a learning strategy that has great potential for improving students' higher order thinking skills. However, it has been reported as a…

Anne van der Linden; Ralph F. G. Meulenbroeks; Wouter R. van Joolingen – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: Research on cognitive effects of educational games in general shows promising results. However, there are large variations in learning outcomes between individual educational games. Research on the design process and different design elements of educational games has led to some interesting directions, but some design aspects remain…

Thai, Ngoc Thuy Thi; De Wever, Bram; Valcke, Martin – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2020
This study compares four learning environments: face-to-face learning (F2F), fully e-learning (EL), blended learning (BL), and flipped classroom (FC) with respect to students' learning performance. Moreover, this present research studies changes in perceived flexibility, intrinsic motivation, self-efficacy beliefs of students, and the interaction…

Rop, Gertjan; Schüler, Anne; Verkoeijen, Peter P. J. L.; Scheiter, Katharina; van Gog, Tamara – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2018
The presentation of extraneous (i.e., irrelevant or unnecessary) information may hamper learning with multimedia. The present study examined whether people can learn to ignore unnecessary information with increasing experience with the task and whether this depends on the layout of that information. In two experiments, participants learned about…

Filiz Avci – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background Study: Developments in science and technology, have created a need for technology-supported learning environments. Robotics is a technology widely used in science education. Collaborative learning is one of the methods used in education based on the constructivist approach. Using robotic and cooperative learning together is a new and…

Zhe Wang; Sara Abercrombie; Rachel Wong; Yuxin Ren; Shiting Dai – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: There are two major types of pictures that have been the focus of multimedia learning research, namely, seductive and interpretational pictures. Despite an increasing body of literature documenting the effects of either seductive or interpretational pictures added to text-based materials, there is a paucity of research explicitly…

Pelin Yildirim; Gonca Kececi – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: Science history is a discipline that teaches the development of scientific thought and the discoveries of scientists. However, these topics can sometimes be abstract and difficult to understand. The use of technology can make the teaching of the history of science more effective, engaging, and accessible. By providing students with…

Teng, Yuan-Yu; Chou, Wen-Chi; Cheng, Meng-Tzu – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2021
This study contributed to the current body of literature on game-based learning by investigating the way playing an educational game, "Humunology," affected learning about the immune system and examining further the association between game immersion and visual attention distribution. A total of 79 undergraduate and graduate students…

Andersen, Martin Stolpe; Klingenberg, Sara; Petersen, Gustav Bøg; Creed, Peter A.; Makransky, Guido – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: Research suggests that head-mounted displays (HMD) can spark situational interest when they are used to provide science learning experiences that are not possible in traditional classroom settings. However, few studies have investigated the lasting effects of using HMDs in an authentic instructional intervention. Objectives: We…
