Background: With the increasing availability of immersive technologies such as 360° videos for educational purposes, research needs to shift from media comparison studies to value-added studies in order to identify conditions for effective learning with such technologies. For the educational use of history-related virtual reality media, which are…

The COVID-19 pandemic has forced a significant increase in the utilization of video-based e-learning platforms for programming education. These platforms never considered the essential attributes of student characteristics and learning preferences while designing such a problematic subject having high dropout and failure rates. The traditional…

Currently, educators seek to offer personalised contents to facilitate autonomy during the educational process. The aim of this mixed study (quantitative and qualitative approach) was to build and analyse the effectiveness of the Adaptive Educational application on electronics topics (AEET) considering Data Science (machine learning algorithm on…

Recently, using videos as a learning resource has received a lot of attention and turned widely exploited as an effective learning tool. With the rapid spread of instructional videos, the number of these tools in all disciplines is becoming very high. It is fractious for learners to find video courses adapted to their needs. Recommender system is…

This article presents findings from a massive, free-of-charge online extension course titled Systems Thinking, which was conducted in Brazil in May and June 2024. The course engaged 345 participants. The research aimed to analyse how students' backgrounds, learning methods, and use of AI tools influenced learning outcomes. A mixed-method approach…

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…

Recent years have brought the need for new pedagogical approaches that appeal to the involvement and participation of learners in the learning process. One of these approaches is the flipped classroom, which gives to learners the possibility to prepare for the next class, through pre-recorded video lectures and close-ended problems. Many studies…

Research suggests that students today favor a collaborative learning style, short cases, and group activities over semester-long case studies, and they respond well to classroom activities characterized by the use of technology, entertainment, and excitement. Accordingly, this article presents an exercise designed using these types of activities…

The rise of virtual learning established e-learning as an emerging education delivery method (Jones et al., 2022). One of the barriers to virtual education was the lack of insight into the quality of students' online learning experience. For instance, without an active instructor to clarify the course content, virtual learners viewed instructional…

Inquiry-based learning is a learning-and-teaching approach that allows students to gather and build knowledge of scientific facts by asking questions. To gain an understanding of the impact of such an instruction, this study examines the effectiveness of Video Inquiry-based Cooperative Learning (VICL) and Video Inquiry-based Learning (VIL) on…

The use of video lectures has become a core feature of digital learning, but how the media diversity carried in videos affects learning experience has been rarely studied. Adopting a two-factor experimental design, this study used cognitive style questionnaires, brain wave detection, cognitive load scale, and post-test to explore the impacts of…

Purpose: This study explores how virtual learners perceive the use of humor in instructor-developed videos and their other factors for learning effectiveness in an online course. Design/methodology/approach: The study adopted a set of qualitative methods flowing from lesson study, to pilot study, to self-declaration of a learning style, to…

This research investigates the learning progress and bottlenecks of students during learning via an immersive virtual reality environment. At the planning stage of this action research, an immersive virtual reality learning environment -- myVOR- was designed and developed to teach concepts and procedures. myVOR was developed using the Unity game…

The article discusses the main factors of personal development and the dynamics of their role in the modern world. It is shown that an organized system of education, a teacher, is no longer a priority source of personal development: such a source is the electronic media that are today having a mostly negative impact on personal development. The…

In a plural, complex, and diverse society, the school faces many challenges. Teachers must prepare their students for future professions, unthinkable nowadays, and the digital competences of teachers and students are one of the axes of an advanced school. This book presents a set of works rigorously elaborated by authors of different disciplines,…
