Aim/Purpose: The teaching of appropriate problem-solving techniques to novice learners in undergraduate software development education is often poorly defined when compared to the delivery of programming techniques. Given the global need for qualified designers of information technology, the purpose of this research is to produce a foundational…

This paper focuses on solving net-related problems with SketchUp and emerging instrumented techniques regarding the use of push/pull tool. The data were collected from a series of task-based interviews with an undergraduate mathematics education student including three tasks focused on building 3D objects from given nets. Spatial structuring and…

Conversational user interfaces (CUI), including voice interfaces, which allow users to converse with computers via voice, are gaining wide popularity. VoiceBots allow users to receive a response in real-time, regardless of the communication device. VoiceBots have been explored in fields such as customer service to automate repetitive queries and…

The goal of this research is to analyze the factors that mediate the success of the use of online learning support platforms, based on the perceptions of a focus group of university professors, with a qualitative methodological approach. The sample consisted of 11 mathematics professors who taught three subjects to 9 240 incoming students, during…

This qualitative study examines the risks educators in Jordan face with the integration of ChatGPT, an emerging AI technology, into academic settings. While considerable attention has been given to risks affecting university students, there remains a gap in understanding the specific challenges encountered by educators themselves. Through…

While GeoGebra applets have been extensively investigated in learning environments, few studies have addressed the interactive GeoGebra applets in an e-book-based learning environment. This study aims to compare the effects of the e-book created with interactive GeoGebra applets on students' learning achievement and motivation. The sample of the…

The COVID pandemic highlighted the increasing deployment of digital technologies in educational institutions, defined as 'edtech'. The most visible edtech was video conferencing software, but a swathe of edtech startups have sought to roll out their products and services to educational institutions. We focus specifically on the deployment of…

Although we are witnessing the accelerated development of computer science, and the opening of new fields of study, compiler construction is still a very important field that is taught at most world universities. Because of a large number of algorithms and complex theoretical constructions, these topics represent a difficult and complex domain for…

Background: Teachers must have the skills to find, select, design and use technology-based mathematical activities that focus on high-level cognitive demands--supporting student reasoning. However, they experience various difficulties in creating, planning and making decisions about how and when to utilize technological affordances. Objectives:…

In 2023, ChatGPT emerged as a transformative force in education, igniting widespread interest across academia. This paper rigorously investigates ChatGPT's impact on higher education using a mixed-methods approach, comparing its (ChatGPT) performance with real students' work in undergraduate assignments. Key findings reveal ChatGPT consistently…

Purpose: Following the recent rise in generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools, fundamental questions about their wider impacts have started to reverberate around various disciplines. This study aims to track the unfolding landscape of general issues surrounding GenAI tools and to elucidate the specific opportunities and limitations of…

In order to improve the accessibility and user friendliness of an accurately pretrained stacking ensemble machine learning regressor used to predict sulfate levels (mg/L) in Acid Mine Drainage (AMD), a Graphical User Interface (GUI) was developed using Python by combining human input with ChatGPT and deployed in the Jupyter Notebook environment.…

Contribution: An innovative approach utilizing interactive software paired with stereoscopic projection hardware is introduced to enhance the teaching and learning of solid-state physics. This method is distinctive for its integration of complex 3-D visualizations directly into classroom instruction, facilitating a deeper understanding of abstract…

Mathematical proofs play a paramount role in developing 21st-century skills, and the use of technology in mathematics learning has widely paved the way in the instruction of mathematical proofs.
