Combining classical educational methods with interactive three-dimensional (3D) visualization technology has great power to support and provide students with a unique opportunity to use them in the study process, training, and/or simulation of different medical procedures in terms of a Human Anatomy course. In 2016, Riga Stradinš University (RSU)…

The objectives of the study were 1) Synthesize the conceptual framework of blended instruction on the cloud via an interactive augmented reality technology model to enhance digital literacy, 2) Design the blended instruction on the cloud via an interactive augmented reality technology model, 3) Develop the blended instruction on the cloud via an…

This article presents findings regarding a Systems Thinking graduate course that took place in 2019, involving 11 graduate students from the University of São Paulo. The course followed a combination of problem-based learning and simulation-based learning approaches. The students were challenged to model the dynamics portrayed in short-films,…

The application of virtual reality (VR) technologies is beneficial to the training related to industrial processes. Mainly because the technologies allow training complex threatening tasks within a safe environment. The interactive three-dimensional (3D) representation of a real world seems to be a more effective learning medium than other…

The method for producing monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) was first published in 1975. MAbs have revolutionised research, diagnosis, and disease treatment approaches. While students need a good understanding of MAb production, teaching the key steps via traditional methods can be challenging. Numerous resources exist, but these focus on hybridoma…

Background: Augmented reality (AR) is receiving increasing interest as a tool to create an interactive and motivating learning environment. Yet, it is unclear how instructional support affects performance in AR. Objectives: This study sought to explore how varying the instructional support in AR can affect performance-related behaviours of…

In this work, we study the feeling of membership in undergraduate students who interact with their higher education institution through a virtual environment. We explore the "Centro de Investigaciones en Diseño Industrial" (CIDI) case, in which a virtual environment was built using the Roblox platform to enhance the online experience…

Advances in technology have significantly enhanced the quality of mixed-reality simulations, incorporating both real and virtual aspects. Mixed-reality simulations have been used to develop individual knowledge, skills and abilities in higher education; however, the use of such simulations to introduce authentic learning activities into higher…

This study explored the differences in the effects of directive versus reflective feedback on elementary school students' conceptual understanding and epistemological beliefs in a simulation-based online science inquiry environment, by comparing more fine-grained differences in the inquiry behaviors of students who received the two types of…

While traditional teaching methods such as face-to-face lectures, training, and mentoring have been utilised in the educational process, the importance of websupported materials was better underscored with the advent of the pandemic. Documentary videos, prepared with scientific data, serve as significant web-supported materials. The aim of this…

The integration of metaverse technology within the educational domain is progressing swiftly, owing to its advanced technological features. This technology has the ability to captivate learners and empower teachers by offering unique learning opportunities and capabilities. Hence, the present study sought to identify the extent of Metaverse…

The literature has identified a significant dropout of students at the transition from high school to higher education, especially in areas related to mathematics. Therefore, new didactic tools have been identified to help teachers in the process of knowledge transfer, as simulators are an increasingly popular tool in their integration into…

This study employed a qualitative case study design to explore participants' perspective on learning STEM subjects through immersive mobile technologies. Immersive mobile learning (IML) is the learning approach that provides learners with immersive experiences and access to educational content ubiquitously using portable electronic devices.…

The world of art, which is mostly based on manual dexterity, has endeavored to raise the new generation of students of the future with today's technology tools. Although art education continues to be up-to-date today, it has had to adapt to technological opportunities. In the face of artificial intelligence and augmented reality applications,…

In science education, chemistry is a discipline that involves macroscopic matter and microscopic particles. It is difficult for the traditional teaching approach to help learners comprehend abstract chemical knowledge. Researchers have attempted to use Virtual Reality (VR) to help learners realize meaningful knowledge via visualizing the learning…
