The recent appearance of generative artificial intelligence (AI) platforms has been seen by many as disruptive for education. In this paper I attempt to locate the source of tension between educational goals and new information technologies including AI. I argue that this tension arises from new conceptions of epistemic agency that are…

The introductory Information Systems (IS) course is a critical course at the beginning of every IS/IT major's degree. While many textbooks exist that are focused solely on this course, they all vary in the covered topics and the depth of material. This research examined most major textbooks focused on the introductory course and, through…

The aim of this study is to evaluate the 10th grade robotics coding curriculum (2020) with a participant-oriented program evaluation approach. The research was designed with the convergent mixed methods design. This design is the most well-known mixed research design, whereby both qualitative and quantitative data are collected simultaneously. 60…

The last few years have witnessed significant integration of technology, particularly Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in both content as well as delivery of business courses in higher education. On the one side, the contents related to technological applications are increasingly expanding the space in business education curriculum…

Technology plays a key role in the education and learning of students at the higher education level. It is vital to identify the factors that can develop alignment among the learning objectives of the students and technology. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to examine the effect of factors such as Task Technology Fit, online…

Information technology has a revolutionary impact on the development of education. Therefore, it is a strategic choice to comprehensively respond to educational development challenges in the information age to promote the modernization of education with education informatization. Countries worldwide have begun to attach importance to the…

Research shows that the global society as organized today, with our current technological and economic system, is impossible to sustain. We are living in an era in which human activities in highly industrialized countries are responsible for overshooting several planetary boundaries, with poorer communities contributing the least to the problems…

This paper aims to identify and explore the learning objectives outlining the core knowledge for forensic accounting education. Bloom's taxonomy is used to outline and analyze the core knowledge for forensic accounting education (e.g. fraud examination, litigation support, business valuation, and IT forensic accounting) in 15 Australian…

The primary objective of this study is to determine the alignment of university educational programs with the professional standards of the IT industry. Answers to this question were sought through document analysis and convenience sampling. An analysis was conducted to compare the content of educational programs listed in the register with the…

This exploratory study uses epistemic network analysis (ENA) to examine the use of extended reality (XR) technologies embedded in post-secondary classes, one in a traditional setting and the other a place-based setting, to examine climate change while utilizing a socioscientific issues (SSI) approach. One group used a virtual reality (VR)…

Pedagogical foundations exist for incorporating technology in instruction; however, these foundations have not kept pace with technology's evolution. Through the use of Information Communication Technologies (ICTs), students now can share content directed at external audiences, i.e., audiences other than the instructor. These audiences are…

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of objects that can exchange data with other devices also connected to the Internet. One of the most common consumer examples of IoT is home automation, as a variety of smart devices, including doorbells, lightbulbs, thermostats, and refrigerators are now available which users can control remotely using…

This study investigates Contemporary Mathematical Instruction Competence (CMIC) using the PISA 2022 dataset. The research aims to identify the underlying dimensions of CMIC and assess their consistency across different cultural contexts. Variables were selected from teacher surveys in PISA 2022, focusing on mathematical reasoning, cognitive…

The Fourth Industrial Revolution is upon us, and it comes with implications for the higher education curriculum and organisations within Africa. Technology that was ubiquitous in previous decades, is now becoming obsolete. Artificial intelligence and digitization, which are features of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, are now the order of the…

Background: There is a controversial debate about the use of digital media in physical education. There are various research results, which mostly do not relate to primary school, however. There are no known studies showing how media educational goals can be integrated into physical education. Our contribution takes this desideratum as its…
