The objective of this research is to investigate the effectiveness of integrating natural language processing (NLP) technologies into an English language learning program aimed at enhancing auditory and speaking competencies. The methodology of the research is grounded in the development and testing of the intervention effectiveness of neural…

As new technological developments continue to change the educational landscape, it is not an exception in the area of proof and proving. This classroom note introduces the use of one of the trending proofs assistants -- the Lean theorem prover. We first provide a technical account of Lean, then exemplify Lean proofs in propositional logic, number…

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…

Debugging is essential for identifying and rectifying errors in programming, yet time constraints and students' trivialization of errors often hinder progress. This study examines differences in debugging challenges and strategies among students with varying computational thinking (CT) competencies using weekly coding journals from an online…

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…

Many areas of mathematics naturally lend themselves to machine-based computing environments, which suggests that computational environments may serve as useful mediating tools for the teaching and learning of mathematical content. While some mathematics classes are leveraging the use of computational tools, the implementation of computer…

In this paper, we explore how the typical second year undergraduate topic of matrix diagonalisation can be applied to solve a geometric problem which arises frequently in Vector Calculus: to find the curve of intersection of a plane and a surface. We use GeoGebra, which offers a cost-free and dynamic interface, to explore a specific variant of…

The purpose of this article was to explore the challenges and opportunities for using e-learning in a South African emerging university, especially during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. The article adopts an explanatory case study design to answer the research question. A quantitative research method was adopted using the convenience sampling…

The use of experiments in the undergraduate economics classroom has been shown to have pedagogical value in increasing student learning and engagement, but the startup costs of adopting classroom experiments can be high for instructors. This article serves as a guide to adoption for the first-time user of computerized (online) classroom…

Background and Context: Source code plagiarism is a common occurrence in undergraduate computer science education. Many source code plagiarism detection tools have been proposed to address this problem. However, such tools do not identify plagiarism, nor suggest what assignment submissions are suspicious of plagiarism. Source code plagiarism…

In this paper, we present the analysis of the students' achievements in learning calculus in a dynamic software environment during the COVID-19 crisis. Two groups of students, the experimental and the control one, were monitored. Blended learning was applied to the students in the experimental group, with the help of "Microsoft Teams"…

The professional work of today's agricultural and forestry engineers is changing dramatically under the impact of the 4th industrial revolution. In that context, the competence to apply information technology (IT) is one of the core and significant competencies. Therefore, in order for training products to meet the needs of society, one of the…

Git, as the leading version-control system, is frequently employed by software developers, digital product managers, and knowledge workers. Information systems (IS) students aspiring to fill software engineering, management, or research positions would therefore benefit from familiarity with Git. However, teaching Git effectively can be…

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…
