Palaiologou, Ioanna; Kewalramani, Sarika; Dardanou, Maria – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2021
This study examines whether the Internet of Toys (IoToys) (de)limits children's make-believe play and whether the functionality and manipulatives offered by the IoToys serve as motivational pleasure (tactile, virtual and visual) for children to engage in make-believe play. Combining Piagetian and Vygotskian ideas of play as a unity of cognition…

Watson, Joe; Baier, Jasmin; Mughogho, Winnie; Millrine, Mark – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2023
This paper contributes to the scarce literature on factors affecting EdTech use in households. These factors were considered through exploratory mixed-methods analyses of cross-sectional data on Kenyan girls and caregivers, captured during the COVID-19 pandemic. Quantitative analysis of the child dataset (n = 544) suggested the importance of both…

Ursavas, Ömer Faruk; Yalçin, Yasin; Bakir, Eda – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2019
Technology acceptance model (TAM) is one of the models that is used to explain the acceptance and use of technology with user perceptions and attitudes. Some researchers argued that TAM should include external variables, such as subjective norms, to improve our understanding of the effect of social impact on technology acceptance. The purpose of…

Ryan, Tracii; Henderson, Michael; Phillips, Michael – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2019
Assessment feedback is increasingly being provided in digital modes, from electronic annotations to digital recordings. Digitally recorded feedback is generally considered to be more detailed than text-based feedback. However, few studies have compared digital recordings with other common feedback modes, including non-digital forms such as…

Shonfeld, Miri; Greenstein, Yoram – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2021
This paper focuses on student attitudes about using a virtual world (VW) learning platform. VWs allow students to meet via avatars and experience events that simulate real social experiences. It can also enhance student motivation, learning and collaboration. However, studies have reported that many students and teachers find VW difficult to use,…

Bin, Enlin; Islam, A. Y. M. Atiquil; Gu, Xiaoqing; Spector, Jonathan Michael; Wang, FaLiang – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2020
The problem motivating this research is the rapid introduction of educational technologies and the strong push to use new technologies in technical and vocational training in China coupled with varied responses and uneven adoption of new tools on the part of practitioners. This study investigated the factors that influence technical and vocational…

Walton, Geoff; Childs, Mark; Jugo, Gordana – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2019
The aim of the project was to motivate school students to learn about the national literature of their own and others' countries. Engagement was fostered via the creation of digital artefacts (or "e-artefacts") such as online comic strips, live videos or animations. The pedagogical rationale was based on Papert's constructionism and…

Debra Laxton; Linda Cooper; Sarah Younie – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2021
This paper addresses the research problem of how to reach, engage and support parents in home-educating young children during the first national COVID-19 lockdown in England (March-June 2020), which was addressed through using technology. An internet-mediated research (IMR) approach is used to investigate the effectiveness of using technology and…

Mogey, Nora; Fluck, Andrew – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2015
It seems anachronistic that we expect students to handwrite essay examinations when almost all their other work is mediated by computer. Two universities, one in the UK and one in Australia, are exploring the use of computers in free text response examinations. This paper compares both the attitudes and the behaviours of their students concerning…

Taylor, Michael J.; Taylor, Dave; Vlaev, Ivo; Elkin, Sarah – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2017
Recent advances in communication technologies enable potential provision of remote education for patients using computer-generated environments known as virtual worlds. Previous research has revealed highly variable levels of patient receptiveness to using information technologies for healthcare-related purposes. This preliminary study involved…

Su, Addison Y. S.; Yang, Stephen J. H.; Hwang, Wu-Yuin; Huang, Chester S. J.; Tern, Ming-Yu – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2014
For more than 2 years, Scratch programming has been taught in Taiwanese elementary schools. However, past studies have shown that it is difficult to find appropriate learning methods or tools to boost students' Scratch programming performance. This inability to readily identify tutoring tools has become one of the primary challenges addressed in…

McKenney, Susan; Mor, Yishay – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2015
Recent years have seen a growing recognition of the value of positioning teaching as a design science. In this context, we see a great potential in the possible synergy between educational design, learning analytics and teacher inquiry. This synergy is demonstrated in the form of Computer Supported Curriculum Analysis, Design and Evaluation for…
