O'Neill, Barbara – Journal of Extension, 2019
It is not enough to simply post text in social media messages. Tweets with images garner three times more engagement, such as through likes, retweets, follows, clicks, and comments. Social media messages without accompanying visuals are a missed opportunity. This article describes 10 simple tools and accompanying techniques for creating attractive…

Marc A. Zambri; John R. De Backere – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
Molecular symmetry and orbitals are two important chemical concepts which can be difficult for students to visualize in three dimensions; as such, instructors have traditionally adopted a variety of approaches to teach them including the use of physical models and digital renderings/resources. This paper describes a new mobile device application…

Maushagen, Jan; De Troyer, Olga – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2021
We propose a novel model for learning environments to target the characteristics of digital natives and to improve informal learning practices, i.e. the exploration, discovery and self-monitoring of learning content and the reflection on learning activities. The Mobile Playful Learning Environment (MPLE) model is defined as consisting of seven…

Grov, Christian; Stief, Matthew; Westmoreland, Drew A.; MacCrate, Caitlin; Mirzayi, Chloe; Nash, Denis – Health Education & Behavior, 2020
Internet-based recruitment can be effective in reaching large numbers of geographically diverse individuals. Geosocial sexual networking apps on smartphones have emerged as the modal way in which men who have sex with men (MSM) meet sex partners, and as venues for sexual health research. We report on the performance of three types of…

Elizabeth Ayers – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2024
Cognitive processes such as learning and thinking are theorized to be an interaction between the mind, body, and environment in four ways: embodied, embedded, enacted, and extended. Collectively, these four types represent the four "E"s of cognition. The "Next Generation Science Standards" has called for curricular reform that…

Plunkett, Kyle N. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
This paper provides two demonstrations of how Augmented Reality (AR), which is the projection of virtual information onto a real-world object, can be applied in the classroom and in the laboratory. Using only a smart phone and the free HP Reveal app, content rich AR notecards were prepared. The physical notecards are based on Organic Chemistry I…

Mallas, Andreas; Xenos, Michalis – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2019
Merging the content of learning with the motivation of games can be a successful combination, if done properly and supported by the appropriate tool. Towards this goal, we developed Diagram[character omitted]atic an environment used to gamify the in-classroom activity of designing diagrams during a lecture. Using Diagram[character omitted]atic the…
