Cyberloafing, defined as the use of Internet for personal purposes during working hours, is an increasing phenomenon in view of a broad spread of Internet technologies. Although the majority of research on cyberloafing behaviors has focused on employers' cyberloafing in different organizational environments, very little is known about its…

Elementary, middle, and high school students need opportunities to engage with educational technology. This is particularly essential for those students who may not have access to new technologies at home and/or school. The socioeconomic status continues to increase the digital divide and equity in education in terms of access to technology; and…

Rapid advances in science and engineering, and pervasive adoption of resulting technological products, are influencing every aspect of human living and fueling a growing demand for a workforce that is adequately prepared for the emerging occupations in STEM fields. Educating students for success in the modern technology-rich workplace requires…

One of the aims of the present study was to reveal and compare the performance of ChatGPT versions (GPT-4o, GPT-4, and GPT-3.5), MathGPT, and Gemini in solving 390 mathematical problems in interactive mathematics e-textbooks across various dimensions. The other aim was to identify the affordances and constraints of ChatGPT through the instrumental…

Simulations, which are very powerful educational tools on their own, enable concretization of abstract concepts and help students research the variables related to the subject matter of the simulation. Simulations provide powerful modelling environments that include the interaction processes of physics concepts, bring active participation of…

This study is devoted to the study of the digital divide between the developed and frontier regions of China, as a model for solving the problems of the global digital divide. The research is based on a representative sample of 1,520 high school students and 220 teachers. The study included several successive stages; each of them was devoted to…

The current study demonstrates how mediated Learning Experience Theory uniquely characterizes a novel model that includes a mediating teacher in conjunction with distance delivery of information in a face-to-face classroom. According to this model, a teacher in the physical learning space plays a mediating role, and is assisted by a…

The goal of the study is to create Visual Basic and MATHCAD apps to create programs that show the core force using physical forces as an example. The research subjects are high school teachers and students; the inherent context is high school STEM courses. Programs for computer visualization have been developed, and theoretical investigations have…

Despite extensive research on technology's potential to enhance teaching, large-scale studies often report mixed or negative impacts of technology use at school on student learning achievements. This ambiguity is often attributed to previous large-scale studies focusing more on the frequency rather than the quality of technology integration in the…

AR and VR are new introductions in many developing countries, including Malaysia. The present study conducted a qualitative case study with 23 high school teachers and investigated their perceptions of AR and VR in English language teaching and learning activities. A semi-structured interview was employed to collect the data. The data was analysed…

The purpose of this research was to examine the correlation amongst teaching-learning conceptions, teaching motivation, and perceptions towards ICT of teachers. While the present research adopted predictive design, the sample was consisted of teachers (n = 268) working in public high schools. In this research, teaching-learning conceptions,…

The aim of this study was twofold: (a) the design and development of a set of open, interactive, digital Learning Objects (LOs) for high school Physical Education (PE), and (b) the evaluation of the newly-created LOs by PE teachers, experienced both in teaching PE and in Information and Communication Technology (ICT), as to their quality and…

This study aims to explore the existence and extent of social media visions, policies and guidelines in high schools in Flanders (Belgium, Europe) and how these policies are embedded in the schools. The research findings are based on qualitative data collected in 47 high schools. Next to an in-depth document analysis of all available school…

Online teaching has globally become a part of the learning process and has been more well-established in developed countries. In developing countries, online teaching or e-Learning is not practiced or recognized officially by educational organizations and policymakers. On the other hand, it is well-known that computers and technology are the…

The Generalization of Information and Communication Technologies in Education program (GENIE) has made way for computers, video projectors, interactive whiteboards and multimedia rooms into many public schools in Morocco, and has worked to add the communicative dimension to the process of technology-assisted teaching. The program also worked on…
