Zhuotao Lu; Ming M. Chiu; Shuai Wang; Weijie Mao; Hao Lei – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2025
Teachers are increasingly using augmented reality (AR) to develop students' higher-order thinking (HOT). As past studies showed mixed results, our "random effects meta-analysis" of 21 effect sizes from 17 studies of 1256 participants determined the overall effect of AR on HOT and accounted for differences across studies via moderator…

Chen Sun; Stephanie Yang; Betsy Becker – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2024
Computational thinking (CT), an essential 21st century skill, incorporates key computer science concepts such as abstraction, algorithms, and debugging. Debugging is particularly underrepresented in the CT training literature. This multi-level meta-analysis focused on debugging as a core CT skill, and investigated the effects of various debugging…

Xiaowen Wang; Kan Kan Chan; Qianru Li; Shing On Leung – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2024
The interest in Computational Thinking (CT) development among young learners increases with the number of studies located in literature. In this study, a meta-analysis was conducted to address two main objectives: (a) the effectiveness of empirical interventions on the development of CT in children aged of 3-8 years; and (b) the variables that…

Zhongtian Ji; Kan Guo; Shuang Song – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2024
As a significant tool to integrate information technology and education, dynamic mathematical software (DMS) has been widely concerned in recent years. However, how to better apply it to instruction practice deserves further exploration. Thus, we adopted the meta-analysis method to analyze the DMS-based experiments published between 2000 and 2020.…

Davis, Robert O.; Park, Taejung; Vincent, Joseph – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2023
Over the past decade, meta-analyses have been conducted to evaluate the impact of embodied pedagogical agents on learning outcomes. Most review studies have evaluated learning outcomes from the perspective of testing labels such as transfer, retention, recognition, free recall, and various other classifications. This is problematic, because…

Lei, Hao; Chiu, Ming Ming; Wang, Danyi; Wang, Chenxin; Xie, Tongwei – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
This meta-analysis examines the effects of game-based learning (GBL), compared with traditional instructional methods, on the science achievement of students, ranging from primary school to university. Results from the 41 primary studies of 6256 participants showed heterogeneity among effect sizes. The random effects model results showed a…

Mao, Weijie; Cui, Yunhuo; Chiu, Ming M.; Lei, Hao – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
As past studies showed mixed results, this meta-analysis determined game-based learning's overall effect on students' critical thinking and tested for moderators, using 21 effect sizes from 20 empirical studies of 1,947 participants. The results showed that game-based learning had a significant positive overall effect on students' critical…

Lu, Zhuotao; Chiu, Ming M.; Cui, Yunhuo; Mao, Weijie; Lei, Hao – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2023
This meta-analysis determined game-based learning's (GBL) overall effect on students' computational thinking (CT) and tested for moderators, using 28 effect sizes from 24 studies of 2,134 participants. The random effects model results showed that GBL had a significant positive overall effect on students' CT (g = 0.677, 95% confidence interval…

Qing Yu; Kun Yu; Baomin Li – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2025
Computer programming is regarded as an important skill for the future. However, many K-12 students face challenges and difficulties in learning traditional text-based programming. Block-based visual programming (BVP) can reduce the difficulty of learning programming and is seen as a potential programming education tool. Nevertheless, the effects…

Jongsma, Mirella V.; Scholten, Danny J.; van Muijlwijk-Koezen, Jacqueline E.; Meeter, Martijn – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2023
In recent years, the technical possibilities of educational technologies regarding online peer feedback have developed rapidly. However, the impact of online peer feedback activities compared to traditional offline variants has not specifically been meta-analyzed. Therefore, the aim of the current meta-analysis is to do an in-depth comparison…

Yang, Je-Ming; Sung, Yao-Ting; Chang, Kuo-En – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2020
Using mobile devices to support the process and products of learning activities is a trend in inquiry-based learning, which is culminating in the formation of the subfield of mobile inquiry-based learning (m-IBL). However, even though mobile devices have been widely used in IBL activities in recent years, evaluative evidence for their substantial…

Cheng, Li; Pastore, Raymond; Ritzhaupt, Albert D. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
With the explosion of multimedia learning environments and the use of digital time-compression algorithms in common software and hardware, we need guidance on how to use this technology without sacrificing quality and learning outcomes. The purpose of the meta-analysis is to examine the existing empirical research literature to derive an overall…

Tseng, Wen-Ta; Chen, Sufen; Wang, Shih-Ping; Cheng, Hsing-Fu; Yang, Pei-Shan; Gao, Xuesong A. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
Mobile-assisted language learning has emerged as a valuable tool for L2 pronunciation learning as it offers ample opportunities for learners to perform authentic learning activities anytime and anywhere. However, the extent to which mobile devices may facilitate or enhance L2 pronunciation has yet to be systematically investigated. To address the…
