Technology has become a way of life since March 2020 and the statewide shutdowns after the COVID-19 pandemic. People who had gotten by without ever having to use the internet, much less turn on a computer, had to learn quickly to change and adapt. The administrative team of Fontana Adult School realized the need to help students with basic digital…

In this study, it was aimed to reveal the opinions of mathematics teacher candidates about the use of the GeoGebra program, which is dynamic geometry software, in the teaching of probability, which is among the concepts that we generally use in the decision-making process in uncertain situations that we encounter in the teaching process by…

Finding the optimal topic sequence of online courses requires experts with lots of knowledge about taught topics. Having a good order is necessary for a good learning experience. By using educational recommender systems across different platforms we have the problem that the connection to an ontology sometimes does not exist. Thus, the state of…

We propose an adaptation of the Glicko-2 rating system in a K-12 math learning software setting, where variable time intervals between solution attempts and the stratification of student-item pairings by grade levels necessitate modification of the original model. The discrete-time stochastic process underlying the original system has been…

This piece looks at the use of Twitter to share good practice among education professionals responding to the so-called 'pivot online': the sudden shift to online learning necessitated by the spread of the Coronavirus pandemic. It presents a general overview on how Twitter provided a source of advice, ideas, and resources and how teachers shared…

Digital Study Assistants (DSA) aim to support individual learning processes by designing them appropriately and efficiently based on recommendations. In this paper we present a prototype of a DSA for students in higher education of three German universities. The digital data driven DSA is integrated into the local learning management system and…

E-learning, knowledge sharing, design thinking education and design driven innovation innovation are all key elements of this case study. The E-learning platform about Design Thinking is born as a result of the growing pervasiveness of this approach to innovation in different application contexts: from strategic consulting to digital…

There is a lack of sufficient, in-depth understanding on how secondary teachers are experiencing m-learning tools in secondary classrooms. This qualitative research explored the impact of the m-learning tools on teachers in secondary classrooms. The framework that guided this study included the following theories: appraisal theory and…

This research investigates the mobile technology ownership concerning M-learning and identifies Tapscott's (2009) common traits of Millennials in a South African context. Technology growth and adoption is impacting the education sector by changing teaching and learning through an innovative form of learning commonly known as M-learning. Along with…

This meta-analysis study aims to explore the game-based learning (GBL) effects on students' learning motivation and academic achievement in K-12 science education. Recently GBL has been broadly used for students with low learning motivation because the dynamic learning activities in computer games could provide benefits for K-12 education. We…

Online education continues to grow exponentially, yet faculty acceptance of online teaching and learning has not. Decades of qualitative study indicate that a majority of faculty continue to regard online education as inferior to traditional classroom learning (Butler & Sellbom, 2002; Wilson & Stacey, 2004; Lloyd, et al., 2012; Ubell,…

BLV (blind low vision) students face difficulties when taking coding classes. Individual Development Environments (IDE) can be inaccessible which make it difficult if not impossible for BLV students to complete coursework. Alternative techniques are described which will allow a BLV student to successfully complete coursework. The author has found…

The purpose of this qualitative case study research was to explore the multifaceted motivations, perceptions and attitudes that influence digital literacy practices in a small group of study abroad faculty and how professional development can help inspire them to act to innovate their digital literacy practices within a study abroad context. The…

Practice is a vital component of teacher preparation. Mixed Reality Simulation (MRS) is a technology that provides teacher candidates opportunities for practice and rehearsal. As of 2021, MRS can be found in just 52 of the estimated 1,200 teacher preparation programs nationwide. Within the Diffusion of Innovation theory, these programs are…

This paper examines the extent to which refugee girls and young women were able to access learning during COVID-19 education closures in Pakistan, and the role that EdTech played in their learning access. It is based on findings from a survey with 403 Afghan refugee students, along with in-depth interviews with six young female refugees. The…
