Hung, Cheng-Yu; Lin, Yen-Ting; Yu, Shih-Jou; Sun, Jerry Chih-Yuan – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: Previous research has examined the use of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) in English language teaching. However, to the best of our knowledge, none of the earlier studies that investigated integrating AR and VR "wearables" into teaching and learning English based on the attention, relevance, confidence, and…

Muijs, Daniel; Bokhove, Christian – Education Endowment Foundation, 2020
Metacognition and self-regulated learning (SLR) have been advocated by many and have significant support being seen as a potentially effective and low cost way of impacting learning. Fundamentally, the underlying supposition is that metacognition and SRL are important to learning, and thus raise attainment, and various studies have established…

Yeh, Ying-Jung Yvonne; Chen, Min-Hung – Technology, Knowledge and Learning, 2022
This study first examined the factors that enhance learning effectiveness and student satisfaction when an interactive response system (IRS) is introduced to a financial planning course. Second, we examined the influence of the initial experience of using an IRS on subsequent learning results. A total of 217 financial practitioners participated in…

Börger, Julian; Spilles, Markus; Krull, Johanna; Hagen, Tobias; Hennemann, Thomas – Active Learning in Higher Education, 2023
Various studies have shown that video-based learning by explaining to a fictitious audience can be an effective learning strategy for promoting multiple knowledge domains such as memory, comprehension and knowledge transfer. However, field studies testing the effectiveness of this learning strategy in an applied setting are rare. The present study…

Tan, Tanya Y.; Jain, Misha; Obaid, Teeba; Nesbit, John C. – Journal of Computing in Higher Education, 2020
Learning management systems (LMS) offer quiz tools that help students prepare for examinations. The purpose of this study is to investigate quiz tracking variables typically reported by LMS in relation to student achievement, motivation and learning strategies. The data from 143 undergraduate students comprised quiz tracking variables (number of…

Tien, Ingrid S.; Imundo, Megan N.; Bjork, Elizabeth Ligon – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2023
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, instructors began using online learning platforms to offer live remote instruction (e.g., Zoom), which allow students to view themselves in real-time (i.e., self-view). The present research examined whether having students keep their cameras on, relative to cameras off, during a live online lecture would…

Constance L. Wall – ProQuest LLC, 2022
VestibulOTherapy is an emerging frame of reference, grounded in contemporary neuroscience evidence with supporting theories from OT-Ayres Sensory Integration and vestibular rehabilitation. Through its application, children with vestibular under- registration will experience adequate vestibular activation to generate myelination and develop…

Lindsay Everaert; Elke Emmers; Ruth Stevens; Anouk Agten; Wim Tops – European Journal of Special Needs Education, 2025
School-going individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) face challenges in educational settings, including reduced academic performance, motor- and social skills. Embodied cognition (EC), which emphasises the significant role of the body in human cognition, encompasses aspects such as motor control, non-verbal communication, and memory.…

Li, Lu; Gow, Andrew Douglas Isherwood; Zhou, Jiaxian – Mind, Brain, and Education, 2020
Humans are inherently emotional creatures due to our social nature, and emotions are able to influence how well we learn and even affect academic outcomes. Emotions are rarely a chief concern in educational settings, and we will discuss the mechanisms underlying how emotions are processed in the brain and how they influence the key aspects of…

Peng Peng; H. Lee Swanson – Grantee Submission, 2022
Converging evidence suggests that traditional domain-general working memory (WM) training does not have reliable far-transfer effects, but produces reliable, modest near-transfer effects on structurally similar untrained tasks. Given the critical role of WM in academic development, WM training that incorporates task-specific features may maximize…
