Direct linkBaaki, John; Luo, Tian – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2017
As faculty members in an instructional design and technology (IDT) program, we wanted to help our graduate students better understand and experience how designers design in the real world. We aimed to design a reflective and collaborative learning environment where we sparked students to engage in reflection, ideation, and the iterative process of…

Augmented Reality M-Learning to Enhance Nursing Skills Acquisition in the Clinical Skills Laboratory
Garrett, Bernard M.; Jackson, Cathryn; Wilson, Brian – Interactive Technology and Smart Education, 2015
Purpose: This paper aims to report on a pilot research project designed to explore if new mobile augmented reality (AR) technologies have the potential to enhance the learning of clinical skills in the lab. Design/methodology/approach: An exploratory action-research-based pilot study was undertaken to explore an initial proof-of-concept design in…

Stewart, Sarah; Davis, Deborah – Australasian Journal of Educational Technology, 2012
Pressures in terms of the availability of quality, real-life clinical experiences for students have resulted in increased interest in the use of simulation in a variety of healthcare disciplines. "Te wahi whanau: The birth place" is a Virtual Birth Centre (VBC) that was created in "Second Life" in 2009 as part of the Second…

Essid, Joe; Wilde, Fran – EDUCAUSE Quarterly, 2011
Effective virtual simulations can embed participants in imaginary worlds. Researchers working in virtual worlds and gaming often refer to "immersion," a state in which a participant or player loses track of time and becomes one with the simulation. Immersive settings have been shown to deepen learning. Ken Hudson's work with students…

Gregory, Sue; Masters, Yvonne – Australasian Journal of Educational Technology, 2012
Role-plays in a virtual world hold tremendous potential for higher education because they allow synchronous, immersive participation by students located across the globe. They also have the added advantage of allowing students to adopt roles and carry out tasks that are not possible in the real world. In this article, a project that involved…

Mayrath, Michael C.; Traphagan, Tomoko; Jarmon, Leslie; Trivedi, Avani; Resta, Paul – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2010
Substantial evidence now supports pedagogical applications of virtual worlds; however, most research supporting virtual worlds for education has been conducted using researcher-developed Multi-User Virtual Environments (MUVE). Second Life (SL) is a MUVE that has been adopted by a large number of academic institutions; however, little research has…

Oliver, Kevin; Kellogg, Shaun; Townsend, Latricia; Brady, Kevin – Distance Education, 2010
Eight teams of elementary and middle school teachers developed pilot online courses for the North Carolina Virtual Public School (NCVPS) in the USA. A qualitative case study with focus groups and a follow-up survey helped to identify common needs of these non-traditional course designers during course development efforts. Findings suggest virtual…
