Bhagat, Kaushal Kumar; Yang, Fang-Ying; Cheng, Chia-Hui; Zhang, Yan; Liou, Wei-Kai – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2021
Although AR technology seems to be promising for helping students learn complicated and abstract concepts, whether the positive effects of this new technology can be applied to the learning of three-dimensional geometric concepts, and what factors might mediate its effectiveness are questions worth further investigation. This study used the…

Hwang, Wu-Yuin; Zhao, Lixinin; Shadiev, Rustam; Lin, Li-Kai; Shih, Timothy K.; Chen, Hong-Ren – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2020
In this study, we designed geometry learning activities so that students could apply newly learned knowledge to solve real-life problems, such as estimating the distance to real objects they find in their local community, measuring objects' length, width, and height, and calculating objects' surface area. Our participating students were divided…

Chen, Gwo-Dong; Fan, Cheng-Yu; Chang, Chih-Kai; Chang, Yun-Hsuan; Chen, Yen-Hua – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2018
In traditional learning, students passively absorb the materials provided by their teachers or textbooks. Thus, their learning autonomy is insufficient, and this affects learning motivation. Students find it difficult to absorb the knowledge taught in a classroom and apply it to real life. We combined situated learning and learning through drama…

Bowman, Scott Wm. – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2013
Current literature indicates an increased pedagogical value of technology integration in university coursework. One form of technology that encourages collaborative, online teaching and learning is a "wiki," an online application that allows participants to partner and direct a website. This article describes the design and formative evaluation of…

Erichsen, Elizabeth A.; Bolliger, Doris U. – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2011
A mixed-methodology approach was employed to gain a better understanding of international graduate students' perceptions of academic and social isolation, both in traditional and online environments, to see if these differ, and to explore suggestions for improving their sense of engagement within their learning communities. A survey was completed…

Saye, John – Educational Technology Research and Development, 1997
Interviews with high school seniors and teachers explored perceptions of technology's role in schooling. Most preferred to adapt technology to traditional, teacher-centered instruction. A minority valued technology as a facilitator of student-centered inquiry and differed in beliefs about schooling and in dispositional tolerance for uncertainty.…
