Background: Traditional workplace interventions have targeted sedentary behavior using standing desk-based interventions delivered in the physical workplace. However, little is known about standing desk interventions designed for employees in flexible positions working at home and in the workplace. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to…

Confirmative evaluation is often noted as an important element of models of Human Performance Technology and Performance Improvement, but there exists confusion around what is and what is not confirmative evaluation. A significant issue limiting the use of confirmative evaluation is the Performance Improvement field's inability to clearly classify…

There is a need to conceptualize a multidimensional taxonomy for learner-AI interaction. This conceptual/perspective article shares recent work on AI learner education and further presents new conceptions for a multidimensional taxonomy for learner-AI interaction. A review of the literature is conducted (N = 11). Open coding is used to summarize…

Teachers are key users of classroom assessment data; however, their needs and preferences are often overlooked in the design and development of the assessments themselves. We used principles of Human-Centered Design (HCD) to systematically solicit, study, and integrate teachers' needs in the design and development of a classroom-based early…

In the field of low vision rehabilitation, there exists a plethora of devices to assist with visual reading that are critical to reading success and customization for persons with low vision (along with other education and rehabilitation considerations). In addition, visual efficiency skills and ergonomics are oftentimes prerequisite or…

This paper is basic research focused on the analysis of scientific advances related to Smart Learning Environments (SLE). Our main objective is to single out the common aspects to propose a new definition which will constitute the starting point to design an innovative model which we can apply to the analysis of real cases and good practices. For…

This study examined whether an artificial intelligence-based automatic speech recognition system can accurately assess students' reading fluency and reading level. Participants were 120 fourth-grade students attending public schools in Türkiye. Students read a grade-level text out loud while their voice was recorded. Two experts and the artificial…

The purpose of this proposal was to examine how User Experience (UX) design principles can enhance traditional instructional design techniques in an online learning environment. Much of traditional instructional design methods come from a pre-internet era in an age in which online learning is growing exponentially (Troop et al., 2020).…

This paper explores the role of material design as a form of institutional power within contemporary school settings. Drawing on concepts of "coercive design" and "hostile architecture" from design studies, the paper examines three "innovative" designs for classroom chairs -- relatively mundane but integral elements…

This study summarizes the comparison of interactive lecturing and technology-supported student-centered pedagogy across six semesters of an introductory physical geology course. A multiple linear regression analysis of 967 student scores shows that absent raw exam scores, homework, and in-class attendance, performance on the first exam (score…

In design technology education, educators value student outcomes centered on concrete design ideas and a comprehensive understanding of prototyping. However, technology education must consider not only the general technology design process and quality but also human-technology interactions. Inevitably, designs for people are enmeshed in complex…

Our preliminary experiment examined a potential pain point with ASSIST, California's database of articulation agreements. That pain point is cross-referencing multiple articulation agreements to manually develop an "optimal" academic plan. Optimal is defined as the minimal set of community college courses that satisfy all transfer…

The scholarly communication landscape has experienced significant evolution in the past several years with the advent of transformative agreements. The largest library systems and academic library consortia have made substantial progress in this time by using their scale and publishing output to effect meaningful changes in their access and…

Design students must develop competence in a wide range of areas in order to be successful in their future practice. Increasingly, knowledge of design methods is used to frame both a designer's repertoire and their overall facility as a designer. However, there is little research on how students build cognitive schema in relation to design methods…

Humans are arguably the most interesting subjects in computer vision. Modeling human 3D geometry from images captured by highly sophisticated production level cameras (10-100 cameras with precise calibration) enable a number of applications, e.g. telepresence, virtual try-on, motion analysis, etc. Despite its production level quality, the…
