In several applied contexts (e.g., earwitness testimony), the accurate recognition of unfamiliar voices can be a critical part of the person identification process. However, recognising unfamiliar voices is prone to error. While such errors could be reduced by testing the proficiency of listeners, the established tests of unfamiliar voice matching…

Educational podcasting may support student collaboration and learning. However, little is known about how students talk with each other when developing podcasts in groups. In this study, eight groups of Norwegian high school students (N = 30) developed podcasts about contemporary poems in their literature class. The study focuses on the extent to…

Developing rapport with learners has presented challenges for Higher Education teaching practitioners since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, who increasingly facilitate learning within synchronous/asynchronous online environments. Podcasts are of renewed interest as a digital learning resource in this context. We explored, inductively, views of…

The mesk method, which is included in the Classical Turkish Music tradition, which is an important heritage of Turkish culture, has always had a very important place in the process until the adoption and spread of the use of notes. Performance features, which are effective in the formation of performance, were shaped and developed through mesk and…

Grounded in the Rogers (1995) theory of diffusion, this field study applied th? theory to the problem of technology obsolescence within the music scoring industry. Technology obsolescence is important to study because it plays a specific and pivotal role in business success, longevity, and sustainability. The purpose of this study was to examine…

This article explores the pedagogical considerations of using pop-culture podcasts as an instructional strategy in leadership development. We clarify key concepts, evaluate podcasts as an instructional tool, and provide recommendations and implications for their integration into leadership learning experiences. While an important consideration for…

Neurologic insults in infancy can have significant long-term effects on developmental processes including attention and learning; however, the heterogeneity of diagnoses and treatments in this population often lead to exclusion from interventional trials to improve outcomes. This study sought to determine whether hospitalized infants with neural…

Multimodal assignments are becoming a prevalent strategy to enable assessment of student learning (Reid et al., 2016). However, due to their inherent complexity, supporting faculty members and students in adopting and implementing these types of assignments can be challenging (Wysocki et al., 2019). To overcome this, a group of 'third space'…

It has now been over 100 years since Heinrich Barkhausen published his description of a crackling sound heard when a piece of iron is magnetized inside of a coil wired to a set of headphones, and this phenomenon provided evidence for the theory of magnetic domains. Traditionally, this effect is performed as a demonstration by connecting the coil…

In order to demonstrate the effect of using podcasts on the development of A1 level students' oral reading, reading comprehension, pronunciation skills, and related discriminative listening skills of Turkish learners abroad, an 8-week podcast-supported listening practice was conducted with a group of 12 participants learning Turkish as an elective…

There is currently little research on the use of podcasting as a learning tool in the tertiary-level foreign language classroom. Here we attempt to partly fill that gap through a multiple case study of three university teachers who use this technology in their courses in Spanish as a foreign language. We obtained data for analysis primarily in two…

The developmental, characteristics and educational competencies of students who need special education are developing slowly in compared to their agemates. This is because their expressive language is different. In order to overcome these challenges, assistive technologies can be used under the supervision of the teachers. In this paper, a person…

Background: SPEAK OUT! has been shown to enhance various aspects of voice such as intensity, prosody, voice quality and perception of voice. However, their impacts on expiration and communication effectiveness have not yet been evaluated. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the Hybrid SPEAK OUT! method on aerodynamic measurements and…

Visual access has long been considered crucial for interpreters, providing essential kinesic cues such as gaze and facial expressions that enhance understanding and emphasis. Despite its acknowledged importance, empirical studies examining the impact of visual access on interpreters' performance remain limited. To date, conclusive evidence…

The most critical parameter of audio and video information output is the playback speed, which affects many viewing or listening metrics, including when learning using tutoring systems. However, the availability of quantitative models for personalized playback speed control considering the learner's personal traits is still an open question. The…
