Chen, Mengyuan; Chai, Ching-sing; Jong, Morris Siu-Yung – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2023
The effective application of spherical video-based virtual reality (SVVR) in writing education depends on teachers' lesson design, which is deeply influenced by their technological pedagogical and content knowledge (TPACK). However, how teaching conceptions, as the fundamental viewpoint that influences teachers' teaching focuses, shape their TPACK…

El Bedewy, Shereen; Lavicza, Zsolt; Haas, Ben; Lieban, Diego – Education Sciences, 2022
In this paper we propose STEAM practices that would foster mathematics learning through modelling architecture while connecting to culture and history. The architectural modelling process is applied by the teachers as participants of these practices from different countries allowing a broad cultural and historical connection to mathematics…

Garcia, Manuel B. – International Journal of Learning Technology, 2020
History education ordinarily faces a relativist slant, if not by the monotonous nature of the course. Hence, educators are continuously in pursuit for a better teaching strategy to keep the class interesting. The main goal of this study was to 'bring history to life' through a mobile application powered by augmented reality that can provide an…

Brown, Bryan A.; Ribay, Kathryn; Pérez, Greses; Boda, Phillip A.; Wilsey, Matthew – International Journal of Technology in Education and Science, 2020
This mixed-methods study examines the implications of using the tenets of culturally relevant pedagogy (CRP) to design an elementary science lesson grounded in four virtual reality (VR) videos. Given the need for additional understandings of how elementary science educators can infuse cultural relevance alongside content development, this study…

Yang, Yang; Leung, H.; Yue, Lihua; Deng, LiQun – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2012
In this paper, an automatic lesson generation system is presented which is suitable in a learning-by-mimicking scenario where the learning objects can be represented as multiattribute time series data. The dance is used as an example in this paper to illustrate the idea. Given a dance motion sequence as the input, the proposed lesson generation…

Scarlatos, Tony – Journal of Educational Technology Systems, 2013
Exploring the Solar System in the elementary school curriculum has traditionally involved activities, such as building scale models, to help students visualize the vastness of space and the relative size of the planets and their orbits. Today, numerous websites provide a wealth of information about the sun and the planets, combining text, photos,…

Bang, EunJin – International Journal of Education in Mathematics, Science and Technology, 2013
This study examines four induction models and teacher changes in science teaching practices, as a result of several mentoring programs. It explores three different computer-mediated mentoring programs, and a traditional offline induction program--in terms of interactivity, inquiry-based teaching, and topics of knowledge. Fifteen elementary science…

Holmes, Kathryn – Australasian Journal of Educational Technology, 2009
Teaching is a complex endeavour that requires teachers to meld knowledge about the nature of learners, pedagogical strategies and discipline content. In recent years an increasing variety of educational technologies are finding their way into the school classroom, including the widespread acceptance of interactive whiteboards (IWBs). The emerging…

Sunal, Cynthia Szymanski; Haas, Mary – Simulation/Games for Learning, 1991
Describes a study of novice and advanced preservice teachers that explored the effect of a computer simulation on decision-making training for planning lessons. Treatments of the experimental and control groups are described, results of pretests and posttests are analyzed, and further research is suggested. (14 references) (LRW)

Barker, Keith – Aspects of Educational and Training Technology Series, 1992
Discusses classroom computer applications in engineering: a student learning assessment program providing remedial work, positive reinforcement, teacher information for follow-up lesson preparation, and a record-keeping matrix and an expert trouble-shooting system that allows students to debug their own circuit designs by testing simulated…

Strang, Harold R. – Journal of Technology and Teacher Education, 1996
Describes the Teaching Decisions Simulation, a program that allows participants to make decisions regarding lesson plan activities and student and teacher spatial arrangement or interactions. Postlesson feedback includes variables such as completion time and performance measures. Experienced teachers exhibited more deliberation in completing the…

Killoran, James, Ed. – ATSS/UFT Journal, 1985
The creative process of teaching is discussed. Teachers are artists because they employ creativity when they formulate, select, and organize their ideas into a medium which is called a lesson. This medium, in turn, is the means which provides a learning experience for others. There are eight articles. In the first article, "What is a Lesson?"…

White, Charles S. – Computers in the Schools, 1991
Describes methods of using technology in a preservice social studies methods course that show how technology can support teacher planning and how technology can increase teacher effectiveness. Knowledge of instructional materials is discussed, and how to demonstrate the integration of technology into the curriculum through simulations for decision…

O'Reilly, Kevin – New England Journal of History, 1990
Describes the Vietnam Decision-Making Computer Simulation, a computer activity designed to enhance student understanding of the Vietnam War by placing them in the decision-making role of President Lyndon Baines Johnson. Outlines variables in the simulation. Discusses the use of class journals in combination with the simulation. (RW)
