The role of attitudes towards ICT is a proven factor in student achievement. However, there is no consensus about the…

This study investigates the effect of E-learning (EL), blended learning (BL) and flipped learning (FL) approaches on the mathematics achievement, self-regulation and mathematics self-efficacy. Participants consist of 163 first-year students attending an associate degree program (a 2-year program) of a state university. The EL, BL and FL settings…

As more attention is placed on designing digital educational games to align with schools' academic aims (e.g., Common Core), questions arise regarding how professional development (PD) may support teachers' using games for instruction and how such integration might impact students' achievement. This study seeks to (a) understand how teachers use…

In response, we conducted a clustered randomized experiment involving 2741…

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a computer-based story, which was designed in anchored instruction framework, on sixth-grade students' mathematics word problem-solving achievement. Problems were embedded in a story presented on a computer as computer story, and then compared with the paper-based version of the same story…
