Chen-Chung Liu; Yen-Yu Lin; Fang-ying Lo; Chia-Hui Chang; Hung-Ming Lin – Education and Information Technologies, 2025
Fostering English reading interest and engagement among young learners in non-native settings demands innovative strategies. Previous studies emphasized the role of teachers in enhancing reading interest, for example, through dialogic reading due to its interactive nature. However, this approach is challenging to implement on a large scale.…

Mantziou, Olga; Papachristos, Nikiforos M.; Mikropoulos, Tassos A. – Education and Information Technologies, 2018
Three Dimensional Multi-User Virtual Environments (MUVEs) are promising tools in education because of the unique affordances they offer. These learning affordances imply certain actions that in turn can lead to corresponding learning activities. There seems to be a lack of reports on which of the affordances of MUVEs for learning and teaching are…
