A wide variety of modern chess software products is available to the modern professional and amateur chess players alike, helping them improve their chess skills and prepare for online and traditional tournaments. These products include chess user interfaces (UIs), traditional Alpha-Beta (AB) and emergent Neural Network (NN) chess engines, game…

In this paper, we provide an introduction to the factored regression framework. This modeling framework applies the rules of probability to break up or "factor" a complex joint distribution into a product of conditional regression models. Using this framework, we can easily specify the complex multivariate models that missing data…

A worked-out or an open inventing problem with contrasting cases can prepare learners for learning from subsequent instruction differently regarding motivation and cognition. In addition, such activities potentially initiate different learning processes during the subsequent ("future") learning phase. In this experiment (N = 45…

This research aims to investigate the effectiveness of a "solution-focused group counseling program to increase healthy Internet use" and "group guidance to increase healthy Internet use" to increase healthy Internet use among young people. The study group for the research comprised 39 university students (22 females 56%, 17…

Computer-Assisted Qualitative Data Analysis (CAQDAS) is becoming increasingly prevalent in the social and health sciences and an expected skill for many researchers. CAQDAS is much less structured than the use of quantitative analysis software. However, actual CAQDAS practices and challenges have been insufficiently studied, especially among…

The aim of this study is to examine the status of digital contact habits of primary school students during the pandemic period. This study is important because it will reveal the difference between primary school students' digital contact habits before and after the COVID-19 period. The study also has the distinction of being the first within the…

Digitalization has led to significant changes in reading like it does in almost every field. When traditional print reading is considered together with digital reading, it can be argued that digital reading differs from printed reading in many respects. Given the complex nature of reading, it is predictable that an in-depth examination of digital…

It is not known how Korean immigrant mothers perceive parent involvement and the use of technology as they unpack complexities and uncertainties in immigrant parenting in this digital age. The purpose of this qualitative, narrative study is to examine how Korean immigrant mothers perceive parent involvement and the use of technology as they unpack…

We explore how children and adults actively experiment within the physical world to achieve different epistemic goals. In our experiment, one hundred one 4- to 10-year-old children and 24 adults either passively observed or used a touchscreen interface to actively interact with objects in a dynamic physical microworld with the goal of inferring…

Information and Communication Technology (ICT) advancement has led to the digitization of school selection and placement systems in a developing economy such as Ghana. As a result, the Ghana Education Service (GES) in 2005 introduce the Computerized School Selection and Placement System (CSSPS) to improve selection and placement transparency and…

Background: Academic integrity is an essential quality to uplift the standards of higher education and plagiarism destroys it. Aims: This study aimed to explore the attitude toward plagiarism (ATP) and its association with gender, hours of Internet use among postgraduate (PG) students in a tertiary care teaching and research institute in South…

The emergence of interactive mathematics software in the early 1990s has invited mathematics education researchers to consider ways that dynamic geometry environments (DGEs) might influence K-16 learners' growth of geometric understanding. This article examines the applicability of the Pirie-Kieren theory to trace this growth. Data for this…

The study presents survey results from 515 preservice teachers at a regional United States institution on their social media use, specifically, their self-reported personal image conveyed on their social media sites, likelihood of posting problematic content on their social media sites, and preference for various others viewing their social media…

Our research aimed to investigate the potential learning benefits to young children of implementing digital interactive multimodal technologies that provide both visual and haptic experiences in elementary mathematics classrooms. We studied the ways in which fourth-grade students collaboratively create collective strategies for solving…

This study is on data-gathering software for special teachers in local education agencies Grades K-14. Increasing pressure for the use of accountability to follow the effectiveness of meeting educational standards has caused schools to reassess methods of using data and the core technologies surrounding its collection. The amount of data…
