Adapting to and participating in technology-enhanced classrooms is challenging for both students and teachers. An emerging need in K-12 STEM classrooms is to investigate how students and teachers use learning technology to engage and practice scientific inquiry. Recent researchers have focused on designing orchestration technology to assist…

This study explores the practical application of online applications in innovating the organization of teaching activities within public schools in Hue City, Vietnam. The research investigates the nuanced dynamics of execution and efficiency in using online applications across various teaching categories. The study employs a systematic approach to…

Technology-enhanced teaching approaches are becoming increasingly common in higher education. One of these approaches, "Lecture Capture" (LC), is a tool which can be simply defined as audio and video recordings of classroom-based activities. Although the use of LC is increasing in higher education, its impact on teaching and learning,…

Every semester, instructors of general education survey classes in history struggle with the same questions as they rewrite their syllabi: How can I get my students to engage more deeply into writing and research? How can I help them develop their problem solving and critical thinking skills? How can I make history more interesting to non-history…

This case study trialled the introduction of a student-response system (Top Hat) in a third-year engineering Fluid Mechanics course (n = 44) to improve student engagement, motivation and cognition. It was recognised that for the potential benefits of student-response systems (SRSs) to be fully realised, more time must be allocated for student…

After explaining our experience with a flipped classroom model of learning, we argue that the approach brings to light the dramaturgical and mediatized aspects of learning experiences that favour a closer connection between recorded content and "live" presentation by the lecturer. We adopted the flipped classroom approach to learning and…

Multimodal approaches to second-language learning can boost language proficiency (Ajayi, 2009) by providing foreign-language learners with greater exposure to the target language's culture, enabling multiple-literacy competencies in the target language, and appealing to students' learning preferences. This article aims to present a…

The technology of flipped classroom technology approach implies such organization of the educational process in which classroom activities and homework assignments are reversed. Nowadays, the flipped classroom technology approach is altering how we collect information, conduct research, and share data with others in the Thai educational system.…

This practical resource will help K-5 teachers incorporate digitally supported disciplinary literacy practices into their classroom instruction. With an emphasis on reaching "all" learners, the authors present Planning for Elementary Digitally supported Disciplinary Literacy (PEDDL)--a six-phase framework that introduces readers to an…

This paper focuses on self-awareness as an integral component of intercultural competence (IC) in the English as a foreign language (EFL) context. For the purposes of this study, an EPortfolio of Intercultural Competence (EPIC) was developed by the researcher and employed during an intervention as a series of tasks and reflection prompts through…

The purpose of this study is to determine how students' academic achievement in English lessons improved when the layered flipped learning model is used in these lessons and what the students' views about the tasks chosen and performed within the scope of this model are. One of the qualitative research methods, the 'action research' method was…

Existing research on student acceptance of the flipped classroom in higher education is somewhat equivocal: some students appreciate the opportunities for active learning that a flipped classroom affords, whereas others expect their learning to occur via in-class lectures. The current study sought to disentangle some of these mixed results by…

Online-based response systems are increasingly used as a continuous assessment tool in classroom due to availability and ease of access. The present study aimed to validate the utilisation of online-based exercises for teaching to medical students. For this study, Socrative, a free online platform was used in teaching a physiology component of a…
