Recent advancements in technology have revolutionized various fields, including architecture education. However, studies exploring immersive realities in architectural design studios remain limited. This research addresses this gap by conducting a pilot study at the Architectural Engineering Intermediate Design Studio, which thoroughly explores…

As AI increasingly enters classrooms, educational designers have begun investigating students' learning processes vis-à-vis simultaneous feedback from active sources--AI and the teacher. Nevertheless, there is a need to delve into a more comprehensive understanding of the orchestration of interactions between teachers and AI systems in educational…

This dissertation was conducted to explore the influence of architectural design on educators' and students' behavior and perception about their learning. The study began with four principal questions, concerning a new academic building at the University of Kansas. However, the inquiry process took me to different directions. The questions focused…

Research shows that active-learning methods (e.g. discussion) are often superior to passive methods (e.g. lecture) with respect to learning outcomes. However, students sometimes report preferring and learning more in lecture-style classes compared to those in which they play an active role. These and related findings suggest students may lack…

Computer-Aided Design (CAD) and 3D printing are not new technologies but are technologies which, in recent years, have become more accessible to hobbyists and enthusiasts. Engaging with these technologies allows the user to investigate and manipulate virtual and physical 3D shapes, which may affect spatial awareness. The literature suggests that…

Alongside technological advances, the educational potential of artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots and the metaverse has generated significant interest in the field of computer-assisted language learning (CALL). However, despite this heightened interest, there have been no studies that have delved into the effective integration of these two…

This study aims to examine design students' intention towards using Artificial Intelligence-aided Design Tools (AIDTs). An extended model is developed by combining the affective-cognitive consistency theory with the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT). Data are collected through online comments from Chinese streaming media…

The objectives of this study were to (i) examine the studies about history of development and the archaeological site of the ancient city of Xingcheng, and (ii) investigate students' learning of history of the archaeological site of Xingcheng using knowledge transfer via digital media. The data were collected from surveys, interviews,…

Mixed-reality simulations (MRS) are utilized in teacher preparation programs worldwide. While much of the literature concentrates on the effectiveness of interventions designed to train teachers, this design case outlines the various decisions involved in developing the intervention, including the selection of mixed-reality technology, employing…

This study explored how students and teachers perceived the interdisciplinary integration of 3D printing technology in teaching and learning within the United Arab Emirates (UAE) elementary schools and its relation to students' attitudes toward STEM careers. The study participants were 148 students and seven teachers from two elementary schools in…

Despite attempts to integrate media accessibility components into audio-visual translation courses, consensus is lacking on the content, aims and orientation of the paradigmatic implementation of the curriculum, with inadequate attention given to the empirical assessment of pedagogical effectiveness. This article describes an exploratory endeavour…

In recent years, technological advances had an impact on the field of education, and computer technologies were started to be used mainly in visual arts, architecture and planning departments in colleges. However, applications such as the use of conventional drawing tools and graphical techniques, sketching, drawing plans, sections, and elevations…

With increasing interest in computer-assisted education, AI-integrated systems become highly applicable with their ability to adapt based on user interactions. In this context, this paper focuses on understanding and analysing first-year undergraduate student responses to an intelligent educational system that applies multi-agent reinforcement…

The purpose of this single case study was to determine how a project-based learning approach to instructional design supported education doctorate students' acquisition of new knowledge and practical application of skills in their current and future professions. Participants included 58 students in an online EdD instructional design course. We…

Numerous educators, instructional designers, and technology specialists utilize case study methodologies to achieve various objectives, such as elevating the profession's status, bridging theory and practice, applying knowledge to real-world classroom and workplace scenarios, honing decision-making skills, and inspiring future professionals. This…
