Vuylsteke, Jean-François – Research-publishing.net, 2022
Assessing the skills of the students who take part in a Virtual Exchange (VE) project is a challenging and complicated task, especially if it aims to engage both the students and VE co-organisers in the feedback and evaluation process. The objective of this chapter is to outline the pedagogical design of a business communication skills course and…

Dickes, Amanda C.; Kamarainen, Amy; Metcalf, Shari J.; Gün-Yildiz, Semiha; Brennan, Karen; Grotzer, Tina; Dede, Chris – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2019
Research in the field of technology-enhanced learning has argued for a broader scope of technology-supported learning environments to include the design of activity systems which position students as active thinkers by reorganizing learning with technology around the practices of scholarly communities. In the context of elementary ecosystems…

Dolcini, Grace; Phelps, Grit Matthias – Research-publishing.net, 2022
Globalization and the digitalization of our lives have made it impossible to avoid (inter)cultural encounters. In the traditional classroom environment, students are expected to juggle a myriad of choices almost simultaneously. Factors like grammar, pronunciation, word choice, etc. are all important assessment factors to consider when looking at…

Paracha, Samiullah; Hall, Lynne; Clawson, Kathy; Mitsche, Nicole – International Journal of Virtual and Personal Learning Environments, 2020
Virtual environments have the potential to be an important teaching tool for emotionally sensitive issues capable of producing a sense of presence, perspective-taking and introspection in users in a risk-free, rapid feedback experience. In designing such experiences, it is essential that users are regularly engaged in a collaborative design…

Savin-Baden, Maggi; Tombs, Gemma; Burden, David; Wood, Clare – International Journal of Mobile and Blended Learning, 2013
This paper presents findings of a pilot study which used pedagogical agents to examine disclosure in educational settings. The study used responsive evaluation to explore how use of pedagogical agents might affect students' truthfulness and disclosure by asking them to respond to a lifestyle choices survey delivered by a web-based pedagogical…

Nelson, Brian C.; Erlandson, Benjamin; Denham, Andre – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2011
In this paper, we take a designer's look at how the activities and data of learning and assessment can be structured in immersive virtual game environments called Massively Multi-Player Online Games (MMOG). In doing so, we examine the channels of evidence through which learning and assessment activities are derived in MMOGs, offering examples of…

Lee, Young-Jin – Journal of Educational Technology Systems, 2011
In the last decades, many education researchers have been trying to use computerized learning environments to enhance student learning. Without proper instructional supports and guidance, however, students often failed to acquire knowledge from computer-based learning activities. The objective of this study was to demonstrate how research-based…

Whitton, Nicola, Ed.; Moseley, Alex, Ed. – Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group, 2012
"Using Games to Enhance Learning and Teaching" provides educators with easy and practical ways of using games to support student engagement and learning. Despite growing interest in digital game-based learning and teaching, until now most teachers have lacked the resources or technical knowledge to create games that meet their needs. The only…

Thiede, Robert – Online Submission, 2012
The popularity and rise in online courses have somewhat taken the author by surprise. Starting as a college instructor three years ago, the author has witnessed the tremendous interest in online programming. In fact, it is the fastest growing enrollment at the kindergarten-12th grade and higher educational levels. At the university level,…

Chee, Yam San; Tan, Kim Chwee Daniel – Electronic Journal of e-Learning, 2012
Traditional modes of chemistry education in schools focus on imparting chemistry knowledge to students via instruction. Consequently, students often acquire the mistaken understanding that scientific knowledge comprises a fixed body of "proven" facts. They fail to comprehend that the construction of scientific understanding is a human…

Vick, Matthew – Online Submission, 2012
This case study analyzes five science courses of a United States virtual charter school. Online quizzes and exams are provided by the corporate partner, while local teachers have selected report topics, virtual labs and at-home labs for students to complete. These assessments were coded for their correlation to the cognitive levels of the revised…
