Hsia, Yen-Teh; Jong, Bin-Shyan; Lin, Tsong-Wuu; Liao, Ji-Yang – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2019
Suppose learners use their free time to go online to review course materials, and they do so by taking optional tests that consist of multiple-choice questions (MCQs). What will happen if, for every practice question, there is always a choice (out of four possible choices) that is marked as "the (current) hot choice?" Will this make any…

Korkmaz, Sezen; Öz, Hüseyin – International Online Journal of Education and Teaching, 2021
With the advent of technology over the past decade, teachers have started to incorporate live games into second or foreign language (L2) teaching to create an active learning environment and thus keep learners engaged in learning tasks. The present study reports on the findings of an investigation into the impact of the online "Kahoot!"…

Bryfonski, Lara; Ma, Xue – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2020
The current study investigates the effects of more explicit versus more implicit corrective feedback on beginner Mandarin learners' perception and production of Mandarin tones. The effects of oral corrective feedback have been extensively investigated for various domains of second language acquisition (see Mackey & Goo, 2007). For phonological…

Lai, Ah-Fur; Chen, Chih-Hung; Lee, Gon-Yi – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2019
Reading has been regarded as a medium for learning science, revealing the importance of enhancing learners' reading competence in science education. The critical features of science texts are their multiple representations, such as text and visual elements, which assist the representation of science concepts. A multimedia learning environment can…

Jacobson, Michael J.; Taylor, Charlotte E.; Richards, Deborah – Interactive Learning Environments, 2016
In this paper, we propose computational scientific inquiry (CSI) as an innovative model for learning important scientific knowledge and new practices for "doing" science. This approach involves the use of a "game-like" virtual world for students to experience virtual biological fieldwork in conjunction with using an agent-based…
