This study explores how children construct their belonging in culturally diverse early childhood settings in Finland and Iceland. Belonging is understood as a holistic phenomenon that is constructed through various relations. The study is a multiple-case study, influenced by ethnographic approaches, conducted with children in two preschool…

Purpose: Through video analysis, this paper explores the impact that order of performance has on middle school students' performance of fundamental movement skills within a peer-to-peer learning model. Order of performance refers to the order in which a student performed a skill while paired up with a peer. Method: Using a mobile application, Move…

Integrating traditional games into science learning can reconstruct local knowledge into scientific knowledge. One of the most popular technologies today is the mobile phone, which almost everyone uses. This study investigates the effect of mobile learning integrated with traditional games Egrang on students' multiple representation skills. This…

Mobile learning (M-learning) is currently popular. Although M-learning has a positive effect on the interest, attitude, initiative, and learning of learners, it comes with the negative effect of distraction. Exploring the factors that influence M-learning concentration have become a popular research subject. Environment (quiet and noisy) and…

In this work, we propose an interesting combination of the Atwood machine and Galileo's inclined plane to study quantitatively kinematics with a smartphone and the phyphox app. For this purpose, we use the optical stopwatch function, based on the photosensor of the smartphone. The choice of phyphox app has some advantages for presenting the…

This paper presents the creation of an educational resource using the camera of a mobile phone and video analysis software. The movie recorded is part of a daily context: an airplane's take-off. This work shows a way to introduce information and communication technologies (ICT) and digital educational resources (DER) as tools to teach and…

Participation in web surveys via smartphones increased continuously in recent years. The reasons for this increase are a growing proportion of smartphone owners and an increase in mobile Internet access. However, research has shown that smartphone respondents are frequently distracted and/or multitasking, which might affect completion and response…

The pandemic triggered by the SARS-CoV-2 virus has produced worldwide interruptions of face-to-face teaching activity in both schools and universities. In Italy, the quarantine began in the second half of February 2020 and lasted for all the second semester of lectures. The University of Bologna, where all the authors of the present article are…

Smartphone-based experimental exercises were incorporated as part of the homework problems in an introductory mechanics course at a university. A quasi-experimental field study with two cohorts design was performed to measure the impact of such exercises on motivation, interest and conceptual understanding. The empirical results on learning…

Physics phenomena are widely viewed in daily life, and the technical nature of physics makes modern life seem to be simpler than it was many years ago. Physics teaching and learning, on the other hand, has not always been done effectively, especially in developing countries. This study aimed measured the effectiveness using mobile physics on…

The tremendous development of information and communication technology, especially the existence of smartphone, has a huge impact on people lifestyle. Smartphone technology allows several of applications to make life easier. Most of teenagers in Indonesia have been familiar with smartphone technology which can be potentially used on educational…

Research has been conducted to develop a physics learning media in the form of an Android-based pocket book. We designed a Harmonic Oscillation Pocket Book and tested its feasibility and effectiveness in improving the cognitive learning outcomes of students. This study used the research and development method adapted from the ADDIE model. The…

This research aims to analyze the needs of infographic media for physics learning of the concept kinematics of rectilinear motions, especially for the concept of uniform rectilinear motion and accelerated uniform motion in Senior High School. This research was conducted to teachers, students, and document analysis, namely syllabus and list of…

The aim of this study was to clarify the intra- and inter-rater reliability of the rate of force development in hip abductor muscle force measurements using a hand-held dynamometer. Thirty healthy adults were separately assessed by two independent raters on two separate days. Rate of force development was calculated from the slope of the…

We measure the vertical velocities of elevators, pedestrians climbing stairs, and drones (flying unmanned aerial vehicles), by means of smartphone pressure sensors. The barometric pressure obtained with the smartphone is related to the altitude of the device via the hydrostatic approximation. From the altitude values, vertical velocities are…
