We propose an experimental analogy to verify Kepler's second law using a spherical pendulum. We made a movie of a closed elliptical orbit of the pendulum and extracted the data position using the Tracker software. Analyzing the data, we measured the areas that the position vector sweeps showing the validity of Kepler's second law.

This paper demonstrates the use of smartphones in an experiment of light absorption and light scattering. The LED display and camera of the smartphone are used as the light source and as the detector, respectively. The color wheel is used to choose the color of the light source to be shone through the sample for analysis. The detector directly…

When we travel in a train moving at a certain velocity, we observe the stationary objects outside are moving backwards. These stationary objects seem to move due to a relative velocity. Consider that the stationary object outside the train is a man standing on the stationary floor watching a woman moving on a train. The woman on a train will see…

iPads have become increasingly popular as tools for teaching in early education. With their multifaceted and interactive affordances as handheld and mobile devices, they have been ascribed great potential to change and expand on classroom practice. However, the iPad often becomes just another technology hype in education, and explanations often…

A growing body of research suggests that mindfulness-based interventions may be a valuable method for reducing internalizing symptoms in autistic individuals. The current study extends this work using an effectiveness-implementation hybrid type 1 study. In this parallel randomized controlled trial, we examined a novel telehealth intervention for…

This study explored how teachers could provide support to enhance students' out-ofclass mobile-assisted language learning (MALL) engagement. We interviewed five Korean English teachers who used "Class Card," a focal technology of this study, for their students' self-directed vocabulary learning. Additionally, students of the interviewed…

Digital games are among the most common reasons children use the internet, and the time children spend playing digital games is increasing day by day. This research aims to identify the characteristics of the digital games most preferred by children, while also examining their digital gaming habits. The study was conducted using a qualitative…

Many students entering middle school experience increased difficulty in acquiring academic content vocabulary, especially in science. Content Acquisition Podcasts for Students (CAP-S) were developed over a decade ago to help remediate this issue and provide structured multimedia instruction on academic content vocabulary to help improve the…

Despite the rapid growth of integrating language learning applications into educational settings, limited studies have reported students' continuance intention to use mobile English learning applications in the mobile-assisted language learning (MALL) context. This study extended the expectation confirmation model (ECM) with mobile self-efficacy…

Objective: Better understanding how behavioral health professions students were impacted by COVID-19 can help educators inform their education practices. Participants: The present study examined the impact of COVID-19 among n = 83 students enrolled in two universities across five graduate-level behavioral health training programs -- clinical…

Although mobile technologies are commonly used to support language learning, there is a lack of research to comprehensively determine the acceptance, readiness, affordances, and challenges in this area. To address this gap, this systematic literature review selected 49 articles indexed in the Scopus database between 2013 and 2022. This study found…

Early literacy skills are critical for reading success, and the potential effectiveness of technology-based interventions in supporting these skills has been highlighted in previous research. This study aims to develop a comprehensive early literacy support mobile app for children at risk of reading difficulties. The research was conducted…

This meta-analysis study evaluates the effectiveness of research and development (R&D) of Android-based educational games in enhancing students' mathematical reasoning and its moderating factors. From 13 primary studies that met the inclusion criteria, analysis using R Studio (Meta Package) and the Random Effects Model (REM) showed an overall…

In 2024, 2 in 5 (42.3%) children and young people aged 8 to 18 said they enjoyed listening to audio (e.g. audiobooks and podcasts) in their free time, compared with 34.6% who enjoyed reading.
