Early literacy development is crucial for academic success, yet the COVID-19 pandemic has widened pre-existing educational gaps, particularly affecting students from low-income households through uneven access to quality remote instruction and learning technology. While educational technology offers promising solutions for personalized learning,…

In a typical undergraduate biochemistry course, two main educational objectives include (1) understanding and applying how genetic mutations can influence protein structure and function, and (2) examining metabolic pathways of biomolecules to study cellular storage and fuel. Many times, these topics can seem disparate to students; therefore, we…

Digital technology (DT) does not come with a 'menu' of what teachers can select to transform their instructional practices; it is through use and reflection in/on practice that potential affordances are abstracted. Computer simulation (CS) as DT was explored through auto-ethnography, reflexivity, and action research. The findings of the study…

The research aims to study the state of the use of information technologies in the higher education system of Kyrgyzstan. Within the research framework, the authors studied strategic plans and programs aimed at creating an information society in Kyrgyzstan. The authors described the problems that have arisen as a result of the impact of digital…

Background: The creation of Intelligent Supervision Platforms in universities leverages Big Data for robust monitoring and decision-making, which significantly enhances overall efficiency and adaptability in educational environments. Objectives: This research focuses on evaluating how Big Data-driven Intelligent Supervision Platforms in…

In this paper, the authors examine the complex relationship between education research and policymaking, analyzing key barriers and potential solutions for increasing research impact on policy. Four main challenges are identified: differing cultures and incentives between researchers and policymakers, communication barriers, competing values in…

This study uses a sociomaterial critical posthuman paradigm to examine possibilities, constraints, and tensions that come into view in the 'intra-action' between teachers and a digital environment. It considers how teacher subjectivities may be reimagined in new digitised visuospatial environments. This qualitative study utilises reflective…

Background/purpose: Assessment for Learning is an integral part of the learning process that provides feedback and improves teaching methods. Teachers experience problems such as limited conceptual understanding, difficulties in designing instruments, and time constraints. This study aims to develop and validate an innovative platform for…

In higher education, a primary concern with online learning versus in-person learning centers on offering and facilitating effective communication and collaboration opportunities for students. New technologies, specifically free and open source system (FOSS) applications, help bridge these gaps by giving instructors and students the means to…

This study provides a critical examination of traditional pedagogies and teaching ethics in science, advocating for the adoption of innovative instructional methodologies that leverage technology to accommodate the diverse learning preferences of contemporary learners. Utilizing the Fuzzy Delphi Method to achieve expert consensus, the research…

Educational dashboards are increasingly prevalent visualising technologies that display data from educational processes to help learners and educators track learning pathways, alert for deviations, and make interventions. This study contributes to critical studies on data visualisations in education by examining dashboards in higher distance…

In many general education classrooms across the world, educators struggle to meet the educational needs of twice-exceptional and multi-exceptional neurodivergent learners, with their confluence of exceptional strengths and exceptional challenges. This article reports the process, findings, and implications of research that implemented a series of…

Background Study: The combination of artificial intelligence (AI) and foreign language learning is emerging as a significant trend in language education. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the impact of technology acceptance, attitude and motivation on behavioural intentions regarding the use of AI in language learning. Methods:…

This study provides a comprehensive analysis of vocational education digitalization policies across China, Australia, Japan, Germany, and the UK. It utilizes a multi-dimensional framework to assess policy subjects, themes and instruments. The findings highlight multi-stakeholder involvement and varying national approaches. A collective commitment…

Inquiry-based learning (IBL) is a practice-oriented approach where students pose questions, conduct investigations, and interpret data to develop scientific knowledge and exploratory skills. Learning analytics (LA) holds great potential to capture these dynamic processes, which provides valuable insights to understand student inquiry behaviours…
