Background/purpose: This study addresses challenges in graduate research supervision by developing and evaluating an AI chatbot research coaching system designed through Design Thinking and Educational Design Research. The research aimed to examine system usability, perceived value, and alignment between user experiences and original design…

Background/purpose: The main objective of this research is to investigate the impact of employing e-learning on the level of reading comprehension among basic stage students from the perspective of their female teachers in Amman. It also sought to determine whether there were statistically significant differences in these perceptions attributable…

This paper presents the design of a personalized learning agent powered by the Agentic RAG technique. The agent can interpret learners' queries and autonomously decide which tools should be used to generate the most suitable response. When the learner shares an Open Educational Resource (OER) they wish to learn from, the agent first breaks the…

Interactive student response systems (SRS, clickers) are used in post-secondary classrooms to enhance student engagement and learning. Their use, however, is most often limited to reviewing material with multiple choice questions. The present study examined student responses to a strategy for technology-enhanced learning within an introductory…

Digital technology has increasingly transformed the landscape of science education, positioning gamification as a powerful pedagogical tool to enhance learner engagement and comprehension. This study investigated the application of digital gamification using Kahoot! to enhance comprehension of biology subject content among secondary school…

This study provides insight into teacher technology knowledge and implementation in K-12 classrooms, addressing a gap in quantitative research of in-service teachers' practices aligned with the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) Standards for Educators. Using the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) and Teacher…

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a technology that has been used quite effectively in the 21st century and has the potential to directly affect education as well as many other fields. AI is supported in many areas such as developing skills in education, increasing the effectiveness of education and student motivation, contributing to the…

School leaders, second only to classroom teachers, are catalysts for student success (Leithwood et al. 2006; Bush 2018). However, many school leaders around the world have not been professionally prepared for this role, making them ill-equipped to address both the daily and the strategic dilemmas they face (Bush 2018; Magno 2013) which range from…

This is the third and final column of a special series on the topic of universal design for learning. Interested readers are encouraged to review the previous two articles: Enhancing Executive Function While Addressing Learner Variability in Inclusive Classrooms (Volume 56, Issue 3) (EJ1280159) and Classroom Menus for Supporting the Academic…

Background: Due to COVID-19, many educators and allied health practitioners are facing the challenge of rapidly transitioning to telepractice delivery of instructional reading and spelling procedures without being fully informed of the evidence. Aims: A rapid review was conducted to provide educators, allied health practitioners and policymakers…

This research, to design and develop a concept map authoring support tool, adopts a semi-automatic concept mapping approach to help teachers create concept maps from English readings. A concept map is widely regarded as a useful teaching and learning tool. It offers many potential advantages apart from representing the students' knowledge and…

Promoting creativity is considered an important goal of education, but creativity is notoriously hard to measure. In this article, we make the journey from defining a formal measure of creativity, that is, efficiently computable to applying the measure in a practical domain. The measure is general and relies on core theoretical concepts in…

Machine learning systems are infiltrating our lives and are beginning to become important in our education systems. This article, developed from a synthesis and analysis of previous research, examines the implications of recent developments in machine learning for human learners and learning. In this article we first compare deep learning in…

Students with disabilities typically experience academic, social, and behavioural challenges in school. Some of these students also often experience anxiety and stress associated with school situations and events. Wearable technologies are an emerging innovation in the United States that can support students with disabilities during stressful…

This piece offers a systematic review of rural (P-12) education technology literature. Drawing upon a social change frame (Ogburn, 1922), current rural education technology research within the subfield is collected, examined, and synthesized. Findings explicate that methodological diversity is a strength; however, some populations (e.g., middle…
