Programmed control systems are ubiquitous in the present-day world. In current educational practice, however, these systems are hardly being addressed, and little is known about children's spontaneous understandings about such systems. Therefore, we explored pupils' understandings prior to instruction in three concrete settings: a car park, an…

This research study explored the perspectives of 20 educational technologists from four Saudi Arabian universities regarding the integration of AI-powered technology, particularly ChatGPT, into online higher education. The study used a qualitative research method that relied on the principles of theoretical sampling to select participants and…

Contribution: This is one of the first studies that evaluated the combination of an Agile framework (i.e., Scrum) along with the Service-Learning methodologies applied to education settlement. Another tool that would help improve educational delivery quality is the Service-Learning methodology that enables students to experience hands-on learning…

The purposes of the current study were to develop a management system for the national sports development fund in Thailand and (2) to evaluate the developed fund management system. The participants were 15 experts in system development. They were selected by the purposive sampling method. The participants had more than 10 years of programming and…

This paper investigates the role of teacher agency for those who were trained in using an innovative Geographic Information Systems (GIS) approach and incorporated GIS into their teaching. While national curricula increasingly emphasise STEM and sustainability approaches, there has been limited analysis of how teachers can bring new software,…

Geospatial technologies have revolutionised the field of hazard research as well as geography field-courses, providing powerful tools to analyse and visualise geospatial data for decision-making purposes. This paper presents a case study of Paper2GIS, an application for field data collection tested during an international field course in…

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic largely disrupted the continuity of educational delivery. Online learning was the prompt response by educators. However, this comes with a big question on the conduct of assessment. Running examinations traditionally is vulnerable to high security risks and administration costs. A precise mechanism to…

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the possible content of IG (Information Governance) framework for implementation in Nigerian universities so that emphases should be on the areas discovered by the study when planning for the framework for better information management in the universities. A qualitative research using case study approach…

This study discusses the application of geospatial technology in learning geography in Indonesia in terms of concepts, curriculum, and implementation. The application of geospatial technology in learning geography in Indonesia has been integrated into the national curriculum. This can be seen from the content of components of spatial thinking in…

The World Health Organization announced the COVID-19 pandemic, which led to considerable disruption of the global education system and required an early adaptation of the educational process. In addition to the resumption of the educational process, it was necessary to preserve the academic performance of students of higher educational…

Undergraduate research experience is the process where undergraduates contribute to the development of a subject field through their inquiry-based learning (IBL). IBL is a student-centered learning strategy. Students work as professional scientists do, through inquiry. This article presents approaches to IBL and practices of an instructor from…

Re-considering 'space' has gained importance once again, especially in the context of virtual spaces that have developed in the last century. Virtual technologies aiming for a lifelike experience have tried to imitate the processes taking place in physical space and adapt them to virtual spaces. Just as in the physical world, spaces formed by…

This study aimed to design and develop a Student Information and Violation Management System (SIVMS) for a Higher Educational Institution in Central Luzon, Philippines. It utilized the descriptive developmental design of research in which the researcher described and explained the processes performed to design and develop the prototype system. The…

Third year geoscience students were introduced to digital tools for fieldwork, Fieldmove on iPads, in a capstone field mapping course at Oslo University, Norway. Despite little prior experience with digital tools for fieldwork, they became independent Fieldmove users in a few hours. They self-report positive cognitive impacts, including positive…

Participation of undergraduate students in research helps them nurture critical thinking, develop research skills, enhance self-confidence, and clarify their education or career paths. The curriculum is central to integrating teaching and research, and is a primary source for providing undergraduate research experience. This study designed a…
