Augmented Reality has a positive impact in the world of education. Systematic review studies and article reviews have provided evidence of this positive impact. Augmented reality is an effective medium for learning, especially during a pandemic. The keyword used to find the articles on the Scopus database was "augmented AND reality AND in AND…

The advent of virtual reality (VR) in education offers unique possibilities for facilitating cooperative learning strategies, particularly in fields demanding intricate spatial understanding, such as gross anatomy. This study investigates the impact of integrating cooperative learning strategies within a VR-based gross anatomy curriculum, focusing…

This paper describes a case study of an online physics laboratory course implemented for 254 engineering students at Walailak University in Thailand in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The laboratory sequence was designed based on the United Kingdom Professional Standards Framework and covered eight experiments on fundamental concepts of motion,…

Like all sectors, the education sector has been negatively affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. Considering the decision to conduct face-to-face training in schools remotely, teachers had many difficulties in moving course content to the online platform. Teachers who perform robotic coding applications are looking for ways to do these activities…

This article presents a conceptual understanding of how the powerful digital tool of augmented reality (AR) can be used for enhancing inquiry-based learning lessons (IBLLs). With an increased reliance on technology following the COVID-19 pandemic, reduced teacher preparation time, and a need to provide students with alternative student-centered…

The educational paradigm is constantly evolving; this is largely due to continuous emerging educational tools and technologies. This development has altered the traditional ways of teaching and learning. Present global trends have further increased or forced the adoption of technology in all its ramifications, resulting in a reliance that could…

Online conferencing platforms such as Zoom and Microsoft Teams have been widely adopted as substitutes for physical classes during the COVID-19 pandemic. This dramatic change is accompanied by many challenges for educators to keep their students engaged online and promote live interactions to mimic a real classroom environment. While progress has…

Computer-supported collaborative learning aims to use information technologies to support collaborative knowledge construction by practicing the relevant pedagogical approaches, especially in the distance learning setting. The enabling technologies are fast advancing, and the need for solutions during the COVID-19 global pandemic led to the…

If there was a bright side to the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly related to education, it was the massive and rapid introduction of educational technologies to scaffold teaching and learning. Most notably, within teacher education, this included extended reality (XR) technologies to supplement or replace face-to-face field experiences. With the…

New teachers often work in culturally diverse schools after practicum at culturally homogenous schools. Simulated field experiences could ensure that they are better prepared. This study measured gains in culturally responsive pedagogy among teacher candidates after a semester of simulated field experiences. Teacher candidates completed a pre- and…

The digitization of the higher education process in the COVID-19 pandemic (new normal) has created a new technological wave. The COVID-19 pandemic (new normal) presents a great opportunity for higher education institutions (HEIs) to be digital and technologically innovative in their teaching and learning process through digitization. The process…

The use of animations, simulations, and remote lab experiments has taken a new turn during the pandemic. When teaching introductory-level physics courses, the simulations and animations play an important role. Carefully designed simulations assist students visualize real-life situations and help understand complex physics concepts behind them.…

Practice is a vital component of teacher preparation. Mixed Reality Simulation (MRS) is a technology that provides teacher candidates opportunities for practice and rehearsal. As of 2021, MRS can be found in just 52 of the estimated 1,200 teacher preparation programs nationwide. Within the Diffusion of Innovation theory, these programs are…

The COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia requires teachers and students to perform learning activities online. Meanwhile, teachers use a variety of technology products in the classroom without paying attention to the didactic, pedagogical, and content aspects. This is due to time constraints and short learning adjustments that should be flexible to this…

Smart education and ubiquitous learning have come over globally, especially under coronavirus regime. Visual media and interactive operation can draw children's attention and interests, so the VR educational software becomes a prominent trend for training children. However, in K12 education, the VR technology is just in its initial period. In the…
