Kim, Yeolib; Jeong, Hye In – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2023
The recent push to introduce coding in early childhood education has been the subject of heated debate. A lack of theoretical and empirical research devoted to understanding coding education acceptance provided the motivation for this article. As a way to engage in the debate, this article investigated kindergarten teachers' acceptance of coding…

Jyoti, Vishav; Lahiri, Uttama – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2020
Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are characterized by deficits in social communication, partly attributed to the inability to pick up cues from social partners using joint attention (JA) skill. These deficits have cascading adverse effects on language acquisition and the development of cognitive skills. Therapist-mediated JA…

Aldabe, Itziar; Maritxalar, Montse – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2014
The work we present in this paper aims to help teachers create multiple-choice science tests. We focus on a scientific vocabulary-learning scenario taking place in a Basque-language educational environment. In this particular scenario, we explore the option of automatically generating Multiple-Choice Questions (MCQ) by means of Natural Language…

Hung, Cheng-Yu; Kuo, Fang-O.; Sun, Jerry Chih-Yuan; Yu, Pao-Ta – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2014
This study, based on Taiwanese geographical concepts, develops a multi-touch interactive jigsaw puzzle (MIJP) to assist primary school students in solving geographical puzzles. The MIJP, which has multi-touch operating characteristics and provides two kinds of scaffolding tools, each with a different level of difficulty, can assist students in…
