This study seeks to better understand how and why teachers use technology in their work. Teachers were surveyed to explore to what extent they integrate technology and why they integrate it to the extent that they do. Faculty at three upper-level public schools in the Northeast were surveyed. Three teachers also volunteered for interviews, and one…

Multiagent systems (MAS) have been demonstrated to be a useful tool for addressing complex problems by breaking them down into simpler tasks. In this article, we explore the potential of the MAS approach for designing educational robotics learning experiences. Specifically, we aim to identify the pedagogical possibilities and technical…

Critical thinking (CT) is among the core abilities students need to acquire to overcome the unprecedented and ever-changing challenges of the 21st century and beyond. To facilitate the attainment of CT, numerous researchers worldwide have conducted empirical studies focusing on leveraging computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) to improve…

In secondary English classrooms, poetry is often a text that is least liked because it is viewed as being "inaccessible," reserved for the elite, and/or too abstract. Part of the reason for this also lies in the traditional, colonial structures of introducing poetry such as relying on canonical texts and close reading analysis. Yet,…

This study aimed to investigate the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on teacher leadership, specifically examining whether AI is expanding or regressing teacher leadership, as perceived by teachers who were using AI in their teaching practices. Using a qualitative research design, the study employed semi-structured interviews to collect data…

Augmented Reality has found extensive use as an interactive technology in various learning and educational environments. However, a previous systematic review (SR) lacked a framework to identify the various types of augmented reality utilized, the types of technology employed, and the types of augmented parameters involved. The primary objective…

Generative Artificial Intelligence (Gen AI) is making its impact on all levels of education. However, these tools must be used with caution, and it is up to instructors to teach their students responsible use of Gen AI. Therefore, there is a need to understand views of teaching staff on how to integrate Gen AI into education to maximize its…

Gamified simulations, integrating gameplay into education, cater to younger learners' digital preferences and align with Next Generation Science Standards. Current virtual modules focus on advanced high school classes, leaving a gap for middle school students. This study investigated the impact of substituting recitations in a 6th-grade ecology…

There have been calls for society to embrace lower-carbon production and consumption practices to address the growing environmental concerns, which include pollution, biodiversity loss, and environmental deterioration. This call is also linked to the achievement of the United Nations sustainable development goals (SDGs) and the need for countries…

Mastering the visually complex characters of the Chinese language poses significant challenges for students. The situation is even worse in Hong Kong, where students with different backgrounds, including students with/without dyslexia and non-Chinese speaking (NCS) students, are placed in the same class. Interactive design has been proven…

The present research explores AI's impact on education among Mexican undergraduate students through a non-experimental, correlational, cross-sectional study. A validated public questionnaire was distributed to 840 students via Google Forms from February to May 2024. Analysis revealed significant AI exposure and use patterns, primarily influenced…

This discursive article explores the integration of digital storytelling into an occupational therapy gross anatomy course as a novel pedagogical approach to deepen students' understanding of the functional significance of hand anatomy. Digital storytelling utilizes technology to produce self-narrated meaningful stories and presentations that…

Despite the recognition of the benefits that can be achieved through the use of Open Educational Resources (OER) and, more broadly, Open Educational Practices (OEP), there has been little research on the competences that are needed to enable educators to utilise such practices. To contribute to closing this gap, this paper presents a framework of…

The purpose of this phenomenological study was to explore faculty experiences with a professional development (PD) program designed to prepare them for improved online teaching and learning. The primary difference between this PD offering and others similar in content involves using an external vendor. The research question was: how do faculty…

Intercreativity is a phenomenon with significant social, cultural and educational implications in the postdigital era. Its meaning refers to the fact of solving problems and making a collective production. However--in a historical and philosophical context that has led to the rise and importance of knowledge production--intercreativity is a…
