This paper investigates the process of designing HyFlex classrooms at Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence (MBZUAI), a graduate-level research university located in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, underpinned by the application of the EDUCAUSE Learning Space Rating System (LSRS). This investigation takes the form of a…

Several studies have focused on the educational effectiveness of technology, with many institutions providing solutions to the classroom and virtual technology integration and implementation barriers. It is essential to eliminate barriers to technological integration. More importantly, stakeholders are responsible for identifying these obstacles…

In today's schools, the ability to integrate technology into the teaching and learning environment is a necessary and crucial skill. Many K-12 classroom environments are technology-rich, with 1:1 devices, blended learning, and even distance instruction taking place. However, new teachers often enter the classroom unprepared to successfully utilize…

The term "Smart Classroom" has evolved over time and nowadays reflects the technological advancements incorporated in educational spaces. The rapid advances in technology, and the need to create more efficient and creative classes that support both in-class and remote activities, have led to the integration of Artificial Intelligence and…

We explored how furnishings and technology impact pedagogical agility and student engagement across three flexible learning spaces. We collected various kinds of data from faculty and students teaching and learning in multiple classrooms, such as focus group interviews with students, faculty responses to reflection prompts, and pre- and…

This was a multi-method study employing pre- and post-course questionnaires and focus groups to explore nursing students' learning experiences with a technology-mediated learning approach guided by the Substitution, Augmentation, Modification, and Redefinition (SAMR) model in the course Gerontological Nursing. 144 undergraduate nursing students…

The research study provided an examination of the beliefs of K-12 teachers about the importance of technology integration to 21st Century classrooms. The objective was to uncover challenges that influence teachers' technology integration practices. The population for the study was 1500 teachers. The sample size was seven participants. An Excel…

When talking about digital resources in secondary education classrooms in the 21st Century, we must mention tools such as Mixed Reality (MR). However, we must not only have in mind the perspective and training of teachers on their use, but we must consider that the ecologies of the classroom are becoming increasingly diverse, thus demanding an…

After a decade of adding technology to the classroom, students asking for a laptop ban sent me on a journey of discovery. After a literature review of existing research and a semester of a no-tech policy, I found less tech, not more increases student engagement and learning. Despite more than a dozen studies over the last decade detailing the…

Technology has become essential in 21st-century education, serving as a critical component of learning inside and outside the classroom, enabling students to become independent learners and enhancing teaching and learning (Ahmadi, 2018; Gilakjani, 2017; Wiraningsih & Santosa, 2020). Teachers should have Digital Literacy (DL) skills and use its…

While the Verizon Innovative Learning Schools program has produced the intended results, such as enhancing how teachers use technology in the classroom to increase student engagement, we have also discovered some unexpected outcomes--teachers and coaches in participating schools have experienced improved job satisfaction and increased…

Recently, there has been a substantial amount of research on smart classrooms, encompassing a number of areas, including Information and Communication Technology, Machine Learning, Sensor Networks, Cloud Computing, and Hardware. Smart classroom research has been quickly implemented to enhance education systems, resulting in higher engagement and…

Moving towards Smart Learning Spaces (SLS) requires reconsideration of the school environment using a multi-dimensional approach that considers pedagogical, environmental and technological aspects. However, learning spaces have not changed that much. New designs and remodelling of educational contexts rarely are evidence-based and rarely…

Chemistry is a subject which involves a number of abstract concepts, making it a difficult and frustrating learning process for many students. Educators and researchers believe that technology could provide an opportunity to address this problem. However, it is challenging to find a model for appropriately and successfully integrating technology…
