Background/purpose: This study utilizes Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Augmented Reality (AR) to improve the intercultural literacy of foreign students communicating in Indonesia through the integration of technology and local wisdom. By integrating AI and AR, a digital book is developed for Indonesian Language for Foreign Students (in…

A distinct feature of educational games using augmented reality (AR) is that the game is played through physically interacting with the environment, whereas physical interaction is typically rather limited in other digital games. Understanding and performing the interactive game mechanics can be cognitively demanding. Adding pre-training could…

This meta-synthesis study examines the use of digital assessment tools in education, focusing on their prevalence, benefits, limitations, and recommendations for effective integration into teaching processes. Based on 41 empirical studies published between December 2012 and January 2023, this study follows the thematic synthesis approach proposed.…

Writing is closely related to contextual experiences about the topics. However, in traditional EFL writing classes, learners' lack of in-depth experience in learning contexts may be the leading cause rendering students' poor writing performance. To address this problem, a quasi-experimental study was conducted to investigate the impacts of a…

This study investigates the use of GeoGebra, a Dynamic Geometry Software (DGS) for math learning in Virtual Reality (VR) using head-mounted displays. We conducted a study with n = 20 middle school students receiving a mathematics tutoring intervention over time in a VR environment. Using theories of embodied cognition and playful mathematics, this…

Background/purpose: The incorporation of generative artificial intelligence (AI) into higher education is transforming competency-based learning by enabling adaptive, interactive, and immersive environments. This study aimed to design and evaluate an innovation mechanism that integrates AI agents with 3D interfaces, focusing not only on technical…

Educators feel overwhelmed by managing challenging behaviors which often leads to burnout and turnover (Clotfelter et al., 2006; Kokkinos, 2007; Simon & Johnson, 2015). However, professional development (PD) in evidenced-based behavior management practices (EBMPs) is sparse with current PD models yielding varied outcomes (Darling-Hammond et…

In artwork appreciation activities, visiting physical exhibitions in art museums is often limited by time, distance and cost. Thus, conventional teaching is mostly conducted through textbooks, presentation slides or videos. However, by presenting artwork appreciation through a lecture, it is difficult for students to feel the beauty of artworks,…

Purpose: This study aims to explore if and to what extent an online avatar-assisted virtual classroom can work to alleviate groups of Japanese university students' anxiety around giving spoken presentations. It also explores how to create a more inclusive language learning environment and encourage interaction between the students in the virtual…

The development of Augmented Reality (AR) media is the goal of this research. The research method used in this research activity is development research. This method is carried out in nine steps. Research data were collected through interviews, observation and questionnaires. The instruments used to measure the quality of teaching materials are…

Augmented reality has become an important educational technology in teaching-learning. Technology embedded learning provides an enhanced perception of the existing material. Therefore, this study presents a systematic literature review of the scope of AR in educational settings by reviewing 72 research articles published in reputed journals…

Flow cytometry has become an important tool in the fields of veterinary, medicine, and biological sciences in general. However, in the introductory and even in advanced university degree courses, students do not have many opportunities to be in contact with this type of technology. This situation motivated us to design a simple and inexpensive…

This article first put forward the educational application of immersive virtual laboratories for the problems of poor spatial thinking ability and weak hands-on operation ability. Second, aiming at the problems of a lack of excellent backbone teachers and insufficient educational information equipment, a Tibetan-Chinese bilingual immersion virtual…

This study aims to design and develop a framework for designing a metacognitive-supported augmented reality application for teaching and learning basic pneumatic systems. This multi-method study with the fuzzy delphi method (FDM) and interpretive structural modelling (ISM) approach involved 12 experts in multidisciplinary fields. The data was…

While there is increased interest in using movement and embodiment to support learning due to the rise in theories of embodied cognition and learning, additional work needs to be done to explore how we can make sense of students collectively developing their understanding within a mixed-reality environment. In this paper, we explore embodied…
