Given the great potential of integrating Computer-Assisted Language Learning (CALL) and Artificial Intelligence-Assisted Language Learning (AIALL) to enhance language learning outcomes, there is a growing interest in exploring their combined effects. In this vein, the present study aimed to develop and test an interactive pedagogical model of…

The implementation of video modeling examples of mathematical hands-on experimentation may provide students with authentic and, at the same time, not too cognitively overwhelming experiences. However, the effectiveness of video modeling examples can be influenced by different characteristics of the observed models. On the one hand, based on the…

This interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) sought to answer the question: How do skilled martial arts practitioners with advanced academic degrees interpret the role of mindfulness in their practice, and how do they believe this integration impacts the social and emotional learning of children? The focus of the study was to understand…

Most higher education institutions in the United States are bound to the triad's regulations, but their methods for integrating external policies with internal ones are unstudied.
