In Germany, there is a shortage of skilled workers in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) and especially in technology with declining interest in technology and with supposedly fewer teachers in technology education in the next 20 years. The present study examined whether students' interest in STEM is dependent…

A qualitatively oriented mixed methods case study was conducted to investigate the effects of incorporating LEGO robotics into a 7th-grade mathematics curriculum. Using the lenses of Social Constructivist Theory and the Five Stages of Technology Integration, this research focused on the development of proportional reasoning skills. The data show…

Technology in education is purposely designed to help both educators and students in knowledge transfer and knowledge gain simultaneously. In many aspects, technology in education is supposed to prove that education can be delivered effectively and efficiently. However, there are cases in which technology in education can be frustrating and…

While the world was already moving towards a digital future before 2020, the coronavirus pandemic accelerated that significantly in many sectors. This is certainly true with regard to digital transformation in the classroom, which gathered pace almost overnight when schools shutdown and lessons first moved online. At the time, the shift served to…

Despite the worldwide increase in the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in Physical Education (PE) over the past two decades, little is yet known about how these technological aids are being considered and used by PE teachers in developing countries. This study investigated Tunisian PE teachers' technological competencies,…

This paper argues that the practice of teaching and learning is being re-defined as technology enables a re-imagining of what can be taught, and how it could be taught. In Namibia, demands on mathematics teachers to incorporate technology use into their teaching practice are often mismatched with the curriculum. This theoretical paper proposes…

This paper presents a case study of two sixth-grade students' use of an iPad as an instructional tool for mathematics. Based on their written and oral responses, we investigated and analyzed their meaning making process with mathematical content in a classroom where the iPad was a central tool for teaching practices. The analyses were based on…

The main purpose of this study was to examine a case in the context of a Faculty Technology Mentoring (FTM) program that provided customised technology integration support to faculty members in different disciplines. The FTM was implemented as a university-wide professional development model to enhance faculty members' adoption of technology into…

Dynamic representational technologies (DRTs), influenced by the seminal work of James Kaput and colleagues, have been in use in mathematics classrooms for decades. In this paper, we analyze 24 classrooms in the United States where teachers support students' conceptual learning with technologies that support explorations of dynamic connections both…

The introduction of digital technologies into mathematics classrooms requires an adaptation by teachers. To develop an understanding of technology integration in classrooms, this research focused on the use of dynamic geometry by a mathematics teacher who was a novice in technology-use, in the context of Turkish secondary school mathematics.…

Knowledge of emerging social media technology and intelligence platforms is in high demand for prospective employees and new graduates entering the journalism and media industries. However, journalism and mass communication departments have historically struggled to keep up with changing trends and new technologies used in industry, although some…

Tech-enhanced projects can spark student agency and deeper learning--but new research suggests that success depends on teachers' sense of efficacy and control with the technology at hand, write Emily Barton, Dan Brown, and Jennifer Chiu.

Technology has become an integral part of human life, and it has made inroads in the sphere of education. Digital technology is largely reshaping the nature of learning in classroom. Digital classroom is one clear manifestation of this emerging trend. There is a burgeoning academic culture of digital classroom today. It is increasingly…

The use of different search engines enables university lecturers to accomplish the stated objectives of higher education institutions because they provide access to accurate and reliable information easily. The objectives of this study were to: identify Internet facilities available for teachers; determine whether teachers can access the Internet…

This study investigated the effects of the application of instructor-made videos (IMVs) on a population of first-year master's in audiology students. The investigation sampled 10 students and investigated both their perception of IMVs as a tool and the empirical effects of the tool. This study examined how IMVs can be applied specifically in…
