The article presents the concept and first results of tests of a Virtual Reality system dedicated for interactive education of manual assembly procedure. The presented solution is based on the use of a Delta robot. The main task of the robot is to simulate the shape of virtual objects as an alternative to haptic devices. The manipulator with…

Conversational user interfaces (CUI), including voice interfaces, which allow users to converse with computers via voice, are gaining wide popularity. VoiceBots allow users to receive a response in real-time, regardless of the communication device. VoiceBots have been explored in fields such as customer service to automate repetitive queries and…

Online learning has enabled universal access to higher education, eliminating obstacles such as employment, geographical location, and other disruptions. However, the transition from traditional classroom settings to online classes without any prior knowledge or training can be a significant challenge. This study investigated students' experiences…

Background: People with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have difficulties recognizing emotions. Studies showed that virtual reality (VR) and computerized training programs might be used as potential tools for enhancing emotion recognition in such people. However, some inconsistencies were observed between the studies. Objective: In the current…

The purpose of this study is to determine the benefits of online learning among undergraduate students at a specific university and to investigate whether there are any differences in perception based on gender. A total of 477 participants completed structured questionnaires, and descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data. The…

Through a lens for engaged scholarship (Boyer in "Journal of Public Service and Outreach," 1(1), 11-20, 1996) this multiple case study (Merriam, 1996) explores the potential of scholarly podcasts for public knowledge dissemination, highlighting the misalignment of university impact metrics with this medium. Our team collected qualitative…

Universities invest in Telepresence (TP) classroom methods to ensure quality teaching and learning while reaching as many students as possible at one time. However, TP classrooms are challenging. Existing research points out the limitations in guaranteeing "presence" in TP as that of face-to-face classes, which positively impacts…

This study aims to explore the implications of using AI-generative tools (tools for generative AI (GAI)) in teaching and learning practices in higher education settings. This exploratory study employs a mixed-methods approach. Data was collected through focus-group discussions, participants' reflections and questionnaires. The participants of this…

Virtual Reality has the potential to transform educational experiences. This evolution, from the earliest days of projecting and viewing stereoscopic static images to the immersive headset experiences possible today, allows VR to transport students to new locations, enable them to participate in virtual spaces and simulations, and design 3-D…

Background: In recent years, the widespread use of technology in classrooms has encouraged the transition from traditional lecture methods to digital-based learning environments. Technological game-based learning platforms, such as Kahoot!, which are used to encourage students' active participation and interaction in learning environments, are…

In recent years, the flipped classroom model has garnered significant attention in education, marking a shift from conventional teaching methods to a more student-centered approach. This systematic review delves into the implementation of flipped classrooms and their influence on educational environments. The focus is on effective teaching…

Numerous studies highlight that the high adoption rates of e-learning management systems (e-LMSs) are not necessarily matched by their actual use among students in sub-Saharan African higher education. Nevertheless, factors such as perceived behavioral control of e-LMS, teaching activities in e-LMS, administrative activities in e-LMS, and…

The objectives of this study were to: 1) investigate the efficiency of E-learning on Career Development and Career Planning undergraduate from Yunnan, China, 2) compare students' achievements before and after learning through earning on Career Development and Career Planning from Yunnan, China, and 3) examine students' satisfaction with of using…

This study was done to find out what students thought about the variables of perceived control, perceived learning, perceived benefit, interest, motivation, affective components, attitude, behavioral components, and learning experience when using digital games in information and communication technologies courses. As a case study, the study was…

In this paper, we introduce "Integrity Games" (https://integgame.eu/)--a freely available, gamified online teaching tool on academic integrity. In addition, we present results from a randomized controlled experiment measuring the learning outcomes from playing "Integrity Games." "Integrity Games" engages students in…
