Teachers' self-efficacy in managing classrooms is an important consideration when it comes to bringing educational robots to classrooms. Orchestration tools support teachers by providing awareness indicators of students' progress as well as levers to control the flow of the lesson. We designed and evaluated the impact of an orchestration tool for…

Virtual reality (VR) is increasingly being used for education and training, raising questions about how to assess the degree to which people feel competent learning through VR. In 2022, Saville and colleagues developed the Virtual Reality Learning Self-Efficacy Scale (VRLSE). The current experiment builds on their work. VR can be used for a wide…

Math self-competence beliefs, namely, math self-efficacy and math self-concept, are crucial factors in sustaining math learning. Since there is a lack of literature on interventions targeting math self-competence beliefs in middle school students, the aim of this systematic review is to provide a narrative synthesis of the characteristics of…

This study presents the development of a student-centric framework for utilizing virtual reality (VR) technologies in education, specifically focusing on enhancing computational thinking skills. While numerous frameworks exist in this domain, they often lack consideration of student preferences, which are integral for fostering learner autonomy.…

The field of education is facing critical shortages in qualified teachers. Preservice students are limited in field experience by their teacher preparation location and proximity to diverse populations. Many colleges and university tasked with teacher preparation are seeking post-pandemic solutions to teacher preparation which potentially involve…

Elementary teachers require support through professional learning activities to enhance their climate change literacy and bolster their self-efficacy for teaching climate change. This study explores methods for supporting in-service elementary teachers' self-efficacy in climate change teaching by examining the impact of professional learning…

This study explores the self-efficacy and problem-solving skills of middle school mathematics students. The students -- 111 9th graders who were studying a unit for the analysis of function -- were given mathematics instruction that was based on either dynamic or static visualization. Findings revealed a positive impact of instruction that was…

In recent years, flipped classroom has become a popular teaching method. Compared with the traditional teaching method, the flipped classroom gives learners and teachers more opportunities to discuss. However, the flipped classroom has also encountered some difficulties. If we do not consider the different learning conditions of each learner when…

Flipped learning has become an ally in education. However, although the literature has identified multiple benefits of using this strategy to improve student learning outcomes, its adoption and implementation by teachers in science education remain scarce. This study examines antecedents of science teachers' flipped teaching readiness to act,…

Teacher self-efficacy beliefs, epistemological beliefs, and beliefs about teaching with technology are regarded as crucial factors for teaching mathematics with technology. However, there is a lack of research that investigates these beliefs while taking into account the multidimensionality of the constructs. In this cross-sectional study with n =…

This paper presents a scientometric analysis of task-based teaching and learning using CiteSpace based on the research literature retrieved from the Web of Science core collection between 2013 and 2022. CiteSpace is employed to analyze the data, as it minimizes subjectiveness and increases credibility. A total of 1799 bibliographic records related…

The efficacy of vocational teachers' utilisation of digital technology in the context of the Industrial Revolution 4.0 remains a pressing concern that necessitates pragmatic resolutions. Social support and infrastructure are the leading causes of the limited technological self-efficacy of digital technology practices. This research seeks to…

Background: Informal learning environments (ILEs) like Fablabs and Makerspaces have potential to facilitate development of STEM skills. However, these environments might be difficult for teachers to adopt in their teaching because of teaching approaches grounded in constructionism where the role of the teacher changes from a transmissive…

This study examines how teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic impacted teacher efficacy. The study employed the survey research design, using a sample of 59 Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) instructors/teachers. The study seeks to answer the research question: How did teaching during COVID-19 impact teachers' sense of efficacy…

The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted education on a global scale and forced schools to utilize emergency remote teaching. The mandatory use of instructional technology during this period both revealed and exacerbated the divide between teachers who embrace classroom technology and those who resist it. This study examined the attitudes of K-12 teachers…
