Advanced regional jet simulators, specifically the Bombardier and Embraer series, have grown in popularity within the collegiate aviation world over the last two decades. Curricular and program applications for these simulators made way for improvements to advanced systems and crew resource management (CRM) courses, academic research, and student…

At present, when the educational process takes place both in classrooms and remotely, the role of innovative technologies is rapidly increasing. The purpose of the study is to determine the influence of immersive virtual reality in teaching on predictors of emotional intelligence development in university students. The questionnaire method was…

TVET in Malaysia is geared toward providing quality education, training, and resources but it still needs to be strengthened and reformed toward producing a more quality and skilled workforce. This study aimed to procure feedback from TVET curriculum key-players' (automotive) on the integration of automotive case-based simulation (CBS) as TVET…

Wargames and crisis simulations can be useful pedagogical tools when deliberately used. This paper explores the spectrum of pedagogical objectives; what use are wargames for learning? What types of objectives can they explore? How do you align the learning objectives with the right type of game? The paper leverages Bloom's Taxonomy of learning as…

This article explores the effectiveness of virtual reality (VR) interventions in reducing anxiety and stress among music students, employing a quantitative, experimental methodology. Utilizing the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) and the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) as measurement tools, the study engaged 120 volunteer musicians from South…

Aim/Purpose: This paper describes a technologies education model for introducing Simulation Learning and Extended Reality (XR) solution creation skills and knowledge to students at the tertiary education level, which is broadly applicable to higher education-based contexts of teaching and learning. Background: This work is made possible via the…

Reflections on the efficacy of pedagogical changes and practices and their effect on student performance are often hindered by incomplete data, small sample sizes, and the confounding variables of multiple instructors and teaching sites. Observations from such retrospective analyses, however, are highly sought after by instructors and…

Academics are responding to the call from industry for graduates armed with cybersecurity skills. A common challenge that educators face is creating effective cybersecurity curriculum that prepares students with practical skills upon graduation. While hands-on exercises are a powerful method for teaching and assessing cybersecurity skills, these…

Art and design undergraduate educational programmes such as Graphic Design studies are based upon best practice within the Graphic Design industry. Thus, the classroom environment is designed to mirror a typical design studio environment. However, traditional design studio interaction and collaboration are undergoing rapid transformation in…

As school funding in the U.S. continues to drop or stagnate, arts education programs have suffered, particularly in poor districts. One approach to overcoming this problem has been for non-profit organizations to develop innovative curricula with technology components that allow students to learn about art without having to leave the classroom. In…

This simulation study explores how the integration of interprofessional components into health care curriculum may impact professional stereotyping and collaborative behavior in care delivery teams comprised of a physician, a registered nurse, a physician's assistant, a physical therapist, and a radiation therapist. As part of the agent-based…

A collaborative and knowledge sharing virtual activity on "Second Life" using a learner-centred teaching methodology was initiated between Temasek Polytechnic and The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (HK PolyU) in the October 2011 semester. This paper highlights the author's experience in designing and implementing this e-learning…

This paper describes the goals, pedagogical system, and educational outcomes of a three-semester curriculum in microelectromechanical systems (MEMS). The sequence takes engineering students with no formal MEMS training and gives them the skills to participate in cutting-edge MEMS research and development. The evolution of the curriculum from…

A traditional approach centred on weekly lectures, perhaps supported by tutorials, still predominates in modern legal education in Australia. This approach tends to focus on the transmission of knowledge about legal rules and doctrine to students, who adopt a largely passive role. Criticisms of the traditional approach have led to law schools…

Describes the development of a Web-based multimedia delivery method of increasing students' interest in artificial intelligence (AI). The course material features an integrated simulation environment that allows students to develop and test AI algorithms in a dynamic and uncertain visual environment. Evaluated the effect of the simulation on the…
