The growing incorporation of social media into the field of science education encourages the current study to investigate the relationships and interactions of TikTok as an Educational Tool (ET), Pedagogical and Scientific Skills (PSS), TikTok's Ease of Use (EU), its Educational and Future Impact (EFI), and Participant Satisfaction (PS). The study…

Reading practice is crucial for students with reading difficulties, but locating texts for reading practice can be time-consuming for teachers. Artificial intelligence (AI) tools (e.g., ChatGPT) can rapidly create text according to specified parameters, but the application of creating content for reading intervention has not been examined. We used…

Generative AI tools, including the popular ChatGPT, have had a significant impact on discourses about future work and educational practices. Previous research in science education has highlighted the potential of generative AI in various education-related areas, including generating valuable discussion material, solving physics problems, and…

Background/purpose: The study investigates whether the AI-assisted learning leads to a significant difference in student scores across the measured writing skills, and it also provides valuable insights for teachers and students on utilizing ChatGPT effectively. Specifically, the study applies a quasi-experimental design to assess five core…

Children with intellectual disabilities often find acquiring age-appropriate reading skills difficult. We evaluated the impact of a structured online reading intervention on the reading skills of children aged 5-11 years in special educational needs (SEN) schools in England. A two-armed cluster randomised controlled trial (cRCT) compared…

While generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools are gradually being integrated into educational practice, their actual usability in classroom settings remains insufficiently understood. This mixed-methods research was designed as a small-sample pilot study, offering preliminary insights to inform a future large-scale scientific evaluation. The…

This study examined the effectiveness of an intelligent tutoring system (ITS) driven by real-time feedback in enhancing students' mathematical learning outcomes, as defined by the Structure of Observed Learning Outcomes. Conducted within the domains of Measurement and Geometry, the study employed a randomized controlled trial involving 120…

As online education becomes increasingly common in language learning, there is a pressing need to understand how students experience bichronous (synchronous and asynchronous) teaching formats in second language learning contexts. Drawing on qualitative group interviews with participants enrolled in an SFI (Swedish for Immigrants) program, the…

Digital games are powerful for health education and can improve health determinants and behaviors, yet limited research focuses on their effectiveness in enhancing adolescent sexual and reproductive health. This review aimed to synthesize the current studies on the effectiveness of digital games for sexual and reproductive health among adolescents…

This study investigates the effects of Virtual Reality (VR) on enhancing English vocabulary acquisition among senior learners, focusing on gender differences and user perceptions. A total of 36 participants (24 females, 12 males) aged 65 and above engaged in a five-week VR-based learning program using the 720° VR Shulin Public Market Guiding…

Our goal in this paper is to analyze the impact of the implementation of M-Learning methodology on the motivation and assimilation of academic contents. A total of 283 university students participated in our study. They were assessed on two different occasions. For the assessment, a 10-question multiple-answer test set up in the Socrative mobile…

Many instructors globally reported a lack of engagement in synchronous online sessions during the COVID-19 lockdowns. This article outlines the use of collaborative small group tasks mediated via breakout rooms in Teams during the 2020/21 academic year. The rationale for the activities, which are available for download, is described along with…

SARS-CoV-2 virus has caused universities to update their courses in the distance modality. The general aim of this mixed research was to build and analyse the use of a web application for the educational process about the t-test considering data science. In particular, the professor of the Teaching of Mathematics II course needed to update the…

In this qualitative case study, we investigated teachers' experiences of distance education during the COVID-19 pandemic in Turkey. The participants comprised 69 elementary school teachers at varying levels of experience. The purpose of the study was to explore elementary school teachers' experiences regarding advantages and challenges of distance…

The extent of how mobile devices, such as smartphones and tablets, are seamlessly incorporated into the personal day-to-day life is not often considered by University instructors. Unfocused incorporation of mobile technologies into the classroom can de-emphasize intended learning objectives if students struggle to use the technology itself or by…
