Zhuotao Lu; Ming M. Chiu; Shuai Wang; Weijie Mao; Hao Lei – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2025
Teachers are increasingly using augmented reality (AR) to develop students' higher-order thinking (HOT). As past studies showed mixed results, our "random effects meta-analysis" of 21 effect sizes from 17 studies of 1256 participants determined the overall effect of AR on HOT and accounted for differences across studies via moderator…

Xueqing Wu; Rui Li – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2024
While numerous studies of robot-assisted language learning (RALL) for English-as-a-foreign-language (EFL) learners' language skill development have been done, a comprehensive and theoretically-driven meta-analysis on its effects is still in paucity. To fill the gap, drawing on Activity Theory (AT), this study reported a meta-analysis from 47…

Chan, Shiau-Wei; Looi, Chee-Kit; Ho, Weng Kin; Kim, Mi Song – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2023
The importance of computational thinking (CT) as a 21st-century skill for future generations has been a key consideration in the reforms of many national and regional educational systems. Much attention has been paid to integrating CT into the traditional subject classrooms. This paper describes a scoping review of learning tools for integrating…

Ezeamuzie, Ndudi O.; Leung, Jessica S. C.; Ting, Fridolin S. T. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
Although abstraction is widely understood to be one of the primary components of computational thinking, the roots of abstraction may be traced back to different fields. Hence, the meaning of abstraction in the context of computational thinking is often confounded, as researchers interpret abstraction through diverse lenses. To disentangle these…

Cheng, Li; Pastore, Raymond; Ritzhaupt, Albert D. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
With the explosion of multimedia learning environments and the use of digital time-compression algorithms in common software and hardware, we need guidance on how to use this technology without sacrificing quality and learning outcomes. The purpose of the meta-analysis is to examine the existing empirical research literature to derive an overall…

Mohsen, Mohammed Ali – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
Written corrective feedback for improving L2 writing skills has been a debatable issue for more than two decades. The aims of this meta-analysis are to (1) provide a quantitative measure of the effect of computer-generated written feedback for improving L2 writing skills and (2) verify how moderators (i.e., adopted technology, task types, and…
