To Brian Sutton-Smith's catalogue of seven play rhetorics in his influential work, "The Ambiguity of Play," the author adds an eighth category--the rhetoric of computational play, connecting the research field of game studies with other forms of play studies. By proposing this rhetoric, Sicart seeks to consolidate the relation between…

IT/IS educators continue to work to develop content and activities for teaching Agile practices, processes, and methodologies to their courses to ensure students have the skills expected by businesses. Given the wide range of tools and technologies that fall under the umbrella of Agile and the wide range of places where Agile is applied, educators…

When life (society) changes rapidly and drastically, school (education) must change accordingly. However, not all changes are good and beneficial for society, so schools must also think critically and work with a time lag that allows for critical reflection and the search for more rational and optimal solutions. Teachers remain essential in the…

Modern day organizations face a continuous challenge in ensuring that their employees are cognizant with malware and cyber attacks, since it has the potential to cause financial, legal, and reputational damage to them. Current awareness training exists in a multitude of forms to equip employees and organizations to protect themselves against…

Advancements in computation and machine learning have revolutionized science, enabling researchers to address once insurmountable challenges. Bioinformatics, a field that heavily relies on computer-driven analysis of biological data, has greatly benefited from these developments. However, traditional bioinformatics instruction frequently lacks the…

Aim/Purpose: In this study, we propose an AI technology-based learning model using ChatGPT and investigate its effect on students' higher-order thinking (HOT) ability in an operating systems (OS) course. Background: A critical requirement for IT and engineering students is supporting them in understanding advanced OS concepts and fostering their…

Employers expect university graduates seeking entry-level marketing jobs to be well-versed in contemporary topics, such as sustainable development, digital marketing, big data, analytics, and the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in both traditional and contemporary marketing domains. Because many of today's cutting-edge technological advances…

In the contemporary era, the concept of learning transcends the traditional classroom boundaries. Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has revolutionized education, offering diverse avenues for lifelong learning. ICT plays a pivotal role in facilitating lifelong learning, empowering individuals to continuously acquire knowledge and…

Purpose: Manufacturing systems have undergone radical changes because of the implementation of physical and digital innovating technologies with high levels of connectivity, interoperability and autonomy. In this regard, the objective of this study was to investigate whether industrial engineers graduated in recent years in Brazil are prepared or…

This study compares museum-related knowledge, museum learning experiences and cognitive load based on task types presented via a mobile application during a museum virtual tour. The study involved three experiments, each examining the effects of different task types. In the first experiment, tasks varied by difficulty (easy vs. difficult), in the…

The paper emphasises the need to consider the social, political, and economic contexts within which educational systems operate and use Artificial Intelligence (AI). Focused on Swedish compulsory education, this study explores whether the use of AI envisioned by national authorities and educational technology companies contributes to unfairness.…

Digital instruments developed to support education practices add new dimensions to education governance. Among such developments is the digitisation of the national curriculum through instruments that govern teachers' planning practices. In this article, a semiotics of configurations approach is applied to analyse a digital instrument, the…

This paper reflected on the traditional lecture teaching method and proposed an alternative English translation teaching method based on 3D computer vision technology to increase student interest in translation, improve students' translation ability, and compensate for the shortcomings of traditional translation teaching methods. Through…

Expansive Framing (EF) is a theory and an instructional technique to facilitate connections between content and contexts. We employed EF as an approach to create a series of integrated mathematics and computer science (CS) lessons, using digital technology as a tool to leverage shared mathematical and computational ideas. We used deductive…

Background/purpose: The emergence of educational technologies has profoundly transformed teaching and learning methods in health sciences. This bibliometric study aims to identify the most widely used educational practices in this field between 2014 and 2024, exploring their applications within a constantly evolving technological context.…
