This paper is a critical case study tracing the professional history of a self-professed open educator over more than two decades. It frames the narrative of an individual as a window on the broader arc of the field, from early open learning as a means of widening participation, through the rise of the participatory web at scale, to the current…

Hands-on computing education requires a realistic learning environment that enables students to gain and deepen their skills. Available learning environments, including virtual and physical laboratories, provide students with real-world computer systems but rarely adapt the learning environment to individual students of various proficiency and…

This research aims to examine the levels of pre-service teachers' digital citizenship, digital wisdom, and digital fluency. Data were collected from 841 pre-service teachers studying at a state university. The obtained data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, MANOVA, and regression tests. As a result of the research, it is obvious that the digital…

The emergence of augmented reality (AR) and mixed reality (MR) modalities has increased the potential of simulation in paramedicine education. The integration of AR/MR into education programmes should be underpinned by sound learning design; however, little is known about their effective use. The purpose of this scoping review was to identify the…

Distance education has added a different dimension to the change in the use of ICT (information and communication technologies) in the early childhood education paradigms in recent years due to the COVID-19 pandemic. These changes before and during the pandemic will also affect education in the post-pandemic period and this is why research in…

Recent international empirical studies have demonstrated positive results when applying extended reality (XR) technologies such as augmented reality, virtual reality, or mixed reality in teaching and learning. Thus, the preconditions and challenges of use must be investigated from teachers' perspectives prior to implementing these technologies in…

Pedagogical agents were found to enhance learning but studies on the emotional effects of such agents are still missing. While first results show that pedagogical agents with an emotionally positive design might especially foster learning, these findings might depend on the gender of the agent and the learner. This study investigated whether…

This article introduces the rationale behind utilizing computer-assisted gamification for the development of movement skills for children with ASD. This article also provides a brief review of several studies that have utilized computer-assisted gamification approaches in motor skill interventions, in order to show the applications and…

The presence of tablets and laptops in schools has burgeoned in recent years, with $4.9 billion spent on over 10.8 million devices in 2015. Despite the large and increasingly prevalent monetary and time investments in education technology, little causal evidence of its effectiveness exists. I estimate the effect of a Math and English Language Arts…

Purpose: Recent attention to the developments focusing on the educational services has been noteworthy, with the educational environment specifically the smart campus emerging both as a domain and as an opportunity. As a domain worthy of exploration, a number of research efforts are being conceptualized around smart campus initiatives. The…

With a sample of 4,646 undergraduate students from four universities in China, this study examined the psychometric qualities of a newly-adapted measurement, namely, the Online Motivation and Engagement Scale for university and college students, and investigated the characteristics of and differences in Chinese students' motivation and engagement…

Background: Today, methods that enable students to benefit from online programs to the fullest and learn independently and self-directed are of critical importance. Many scales have been developed to measure self-directed learning in the physical classroom. This study was conducted to design and assess the psychometric properties of an instrument…

The study examines the motivating factors driving mobile information systems use (MISU) for mobile learning. The primary objectives include comparing attitudes of students and faculty towards the influence of perceived usefulness (PU), perceived playfulness (PP), and perceived enjoyment (PE) on MISU. Additionally, the influence of personal…

This paper explores the impact of COVID-19 on higher education practical design courses in Egypt. Because of inadequate resources and preparedness, Egyptian colleges have struggled to adopt digital teaching methods during the COVID-19 pandemic. This paper examines strategies that are the most feasible for teaching practical courses during or after…
