Xiaodong Wei; Lei Wang; Lap-Kei Lee; Ruixue Liu – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2025
Notwithstanding the growing advantages of incorporating Augmented Reality (AR) in science education, the pedagogical use of AR combined with Pedagogical Agents (PAs) remains underexplored. Additionally, few studies have examined the integration of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) into science education to create GAI-enhanced PAs (GPAs)…

Minkai Wang; Di Zhang; Jingdong Zhu; Hanjie Gu – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2025
Scientific knowledge is often abstract and challenging, making it difficult for students to apply these concepts effectively. Digital game-based learning (DGBL) offers an engaging and immersive approach, but the fixed resources and predetermined learning paths in most games limit its ability to adapt to individual learners' needs. Large language…

Wang, Cixiao; Le, Huixiao – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
In collaborative learning, the intuition "the more device, the merrier" is somehow widely acknowledged, but little research has investigated the relationship between device-student ratio and the learning outcome. This study aims to investigate not only the main effect of different device-student ratio, also to identify the moderators in…

Hardway, Christina; Seitchik, Allison E.; Kurdziel, Laura B. F.; Stroud, Michael J.; LaTorre, Joseph T.; LeBert, Cassidy – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2018
This study examined whether a video illustration of a complex phenomenon promoted learner interest, perceived comprehensibility, and better learning in online- and classroom-based contexts. In the first study, undergraduate participants (N = 101) viewed learning materials which contained a video only, a video and textual explanation, or a textual…

Yu, Zhonggen – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2020
The extended constructs of technology acceptance model (TAM) have rarely been linked to psychological influence factors. This study complements for the missing link in literature through structural equation modeling and a nonparametric Mann-Whitney U test based on the data obtained from a large-scale questionnaire survey. It is concluded that (a)…

Wang, Xinghua; Wong, Becky – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2019
This study investigated the factors that led to students adopting cloud computing learning resources (CCLR) in underfunded, rural high schools with the aim of informing future work related to effective implementation of CCLR for underprivileged students. Guided by the CCLR adoption model, survey data of 310 students from two high schools in rural…

Liu, Han-Chin – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2018
Multimedia students' dependence on information from the outside world can have an impact on their ability to identify and locate information from multiple resources in learning environments and thereby affect the construction of mental models. Field dependence-independence has been used to assess the ability to extract essential information from…

Jang, Eunice Eunhee; Lajoie, Susanne P.; Wagner, Maryam; Xu, Zhenhua; Poitras, Eric; Naismith, Laura – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2017
Technology-rich learning environments (TREs) provide opportunities for learners to engage in complex interactions involving a multitude of cognitive, metacognitive, and affective states. Understanding learners' distinct learning progressions in TREs demand inquiry approaches that employ well-conceived theoretical accounts of these multiple facets.…
