Early educational settings such as early childhood education and care and kindergarten (i.e. formal schooling) are important contexts to foster children's peer collaboration, an important skill for the twenty-first century. The prevalence of technology in early educational settings has continued to increase rapidly in ways that can support the…

This article considers what 'minimal' might mean in the context of using minimal computing tools in the humanities classroom. Specifically, it recounts experiences teaching students to make websites using Jekyll, a popular minimal website generation tool, using different understandings of 'minimal.' In one, students were encouraged to use a Web…

Dynamic geometry software (DGS) has long been studied in mathematics education as a way for students to explore and interact with geometric objects and figures. Recent advances in Augmented Reality (AR) technologies that allow dynamic three-dimensional mathematical objects to appear in students' environment as holograms have changed the nature of…

Mathematical cognitive technology tools, such as Desmos, have the capacity to provide rich mathematical experiences for students (Bos, 2009; Dick & Hollebrands, 2011). To maximize the benefits of MCTs, teachers must believe the technology will help students understand mathematics and be skilled at using the technology (Doerr & Zangor,…

Intelligent Personal Assistant (IPA) has emerged as a valuable tool for EFL learning by offering interactive authentic contexts. Although IPA is believed to be motivational and useful, empirical evidence is limited and contradictory, especially the efficacy of listening comprehension. Therefore, the study investigated the impact of IPA on…

The purpose of this position paper in to provide guidance on the creation and utilization of infographics for learning and instruction.

The preparation of pre-service teachers (PSTs) for future English as a second language (ESL) writing instruction requires not only strong writing knowledge but also effective pedagogical practices. Despite growing interest in digital technologies, little is known about how digital writing tools can support PSTs' academic writing development.…

Integration of 3D photogrammetry models into anatomical education can enhance students' understanding of complex anatomical structures. With advancements in photogrammetry technology, this integration has become more accessible. Interactive, photorealistic models complement traditional methods such as donor dissections. This study evaluates the…
