For years, researchers and practitioners alike have searched for meaningful ways to describe or evaluate how technology was being integrated into teaching or to what level. This article will briefly summarize some of the predominant lenses through which to view technology integration and propose a new model for designing meaningfully…

There is a knowledge gap in tracing and analyzing historical records (e.g., annual or bi-annual) of educational technology, particularly, exploring emerging technology trends and their uptake in education. This study addresses this gap by reviewing technology adoption in education, based on bibliometric and content analyses of EDUCAUSE Horizon…

The massive emergence of digital technologies requires not only enterprises but also educational institutions to transform their strategies and values for maintaining competitiveness. While research on digital transformation in higher education is becoming more available in the literature, structured examinations regarding their concerns are…

In the rapidly evolving landscape of higher education, we are witnessing an unprecedented surge in the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI). This rapid surge necessitates a thorough exploration of how faculty members, instructional designers, and researchers adopt AI, especially GenAI, using learning design practices. The present research study…

Technology has become commonplace in K-12 classrooms with students actively using digital technology to support learning. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether there is empirical support that implementing the ISTE Standards for Students can result in learning gains. A scoping review methodology was used to map extant literature to…

The popularity of generative AI chatbots, such as ChatGPT, has sparked numerous studies investigating their use in educational contexts. However, it is important to note that chatbots are not a new phenomenon; researchers have explored conversational agents across diverse fields for decades. Conversational agents engage users in natural language…

Virtual reality (VR) in education has tremendous potential in providing immersive and interactive experiences for students. Immersive virtual reality (IVR) technologies and IVR learning experiences have been increasingly used in education settings to support a variety of instructional methods and outcomes by providing experiential and authentic…

In this study, we have examined gender differences in the way students relate to information and communication technologies (ICT), to learn more about their perceptions of gender-based stereotypes in this area. This study is based on the results of the 2018 International Computer and Information Literacy Study (ICILS), specifically regarding…

As education preparation programs align their instruction to the contemporary technologies used in schools, they may begin to design and deliver virtual reality instruction in the teaching methods classroom. In this study, we examined the experiences of 24 pre-service teachers as they used virtual reality for the first time through the lens of the…

The demand for postsecondary and online courses is rising, requiring colleges and universities to turn to technology to keep up with the trend. In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the higher education transition to online teaching, forcing faculty to use technology to teach. Although technology is ubiquitous in higher education and…

The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies has demonstrated their affordances and limitations in revolutionizing pedagogical strategies in higher education. Given the lack of guidelines, policies, and resources to assist instructors in efficiently and ethically integrating AI into teaching and learning practices, this…

This quantitative study examined self-efficacy as a factor in teachers' technology use and integration efforts in urban K-12 classroom settings of 327 Catholic school teachers in Southern California. This study employed an online survey that utilized the Technology Integration Confidence Scale (TICS) version 3, an instrument developed by the first…

Owing to its advantages such as producing durable models and easy accessibility, 3D modeling and printing (3DMP) has become increasingly popular in educational practice and research. However, the results of many studies have shown that the adoption rate of 3DMP among teachers is still low, especially in elementary schools. Therefore, research is…

Augmented Reality (AR) can enhance learning experiences offering many benefits to students. However, its integration in educational practice is rather limited due to several obstacles. One of these obstacles is the absence of AR digital competencies among instructors. Limited research exists about teachers' competence areas in integrating AR in…

This study examines the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots within higher education, focusing on the early feedback from STEM faculty members in Lebanon, particularly in the context of their widespread use among students. As AI intersects with traditional scientific inquiry, its incorporation into educational frameworks introduces…
