There has been ongoing research into qualitative differentiation of university student learning outcomes but limited attempts to explain the extent to which material elements such as learning technologies contribute to these differences. A theory of materiality for the university student experience is essential if teachers are to design and teach…

The teacher's central role in technology integration and the challenges of that integration emphasise the need for a deeper understanding about the teacher's knowledge required to teach with technology. Based on previous work and a systematic literature review, we identified three knowledge models often used: TPACK, KTMT and PTK. The goal of this…

Open-text responses provide researchers and educators with rich, nuanced insights that multiple-choice questions cannot capture. When reliably assessed, such responses have the potential to enhance teaching and learning. However, scaling and consistently capturing these nuances remain significant challenges, limiting the widespread use of…

Background/purpose: The present study utilizes an integrated theoretical framework that integrates the Theory of Planned Behaviour, Technology Acceptance Model, and Value-Based Adoption Model to explore the effects of Digital Literacy (DL) on the behavioral intention of the Saudi Generation Z students toward adopting Fintech (FAI). It emphasizes…

Online virtual worlds have increasingly become meeting places for students and teachers to discuss and collaborate on diverse academic subjects and practices. Furthermore, in response to the recent global COVID-19 pandemic, there has also been a heightened drive to provide online educational facilities that harness immersive virtual environments…

This article is from a continuous professional development project where preschool teachers are introduced to the framework Play-Responsive Early Childhood Education and Care (PRECEC). Aspects of play and teaching are discussed in focus groups, before and after a first attempt to enact and re-enact play-responsive teaching, with science content.…

Instructional video has become an important teaching resource. In related studies, researchers have found that the playback speed of instructional videos affects learning effect. However, it is not clear whether the learning effect obtained when learners choose different playback speeds is affected by the interactive design of the video (e.g.,…

This study examines the relationship between game-based student response systems (GSRS) and college student academic performance. GSRS, such as Kahoot!, are emerging in classrooms as a "fun" way to review course material and test student understanding. Its increasing usage begs the question of its effectiveness for students. Therefore,…

This research explores adoption of the Deepseek, an artificial intelligence (AI) platform among higher education students in India by integrating the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) with learning motivation factors. Given the rapid rise of AI-based platforms in educational sector, understanding their adoption is not only timely but also…

This bibliometric analysis provides a comprehensive overview of the research trajectory on "Game-based Mobile Learning" based on Scopus-indexed publications from 2006 to 2024. The study revealed significant growth in scholarly output, peaking in 2023, reflecting the increasing academic and practical interest in integrating game elements…

Students who study university courses online have a higher level of attrition compared with their on-campus counterparts, so online student engagement has become a contemporary concern for teaching faculty. The issue of student engagement is particularly acute in fields such as Guidance and Counselling in Education, which have not traditionally…

Educational technology is part of a scientific that is mostly engaged in education. Actually, this scientific has significant benefits, especially in the field of education. However, many people do not understand the role of educational technology in education. This can be seen from the diverse perspectives of society on educational technology.…

Post-critical pedagogy, which offers a significant alternative to the dominant trends in contemporary philosophy of education, objects to seeing education as instrumental to other ends: it attempts to conceive of education as "autotelic," namely as having intrinsic value. While there are good reasons for accepting the post-critical…

This study analyzes information accumulated in WoS databases on special education and technology with bibliometric methods. Bibliometric analyses, seen as an alternative to systematic literature reviews, meta-analysis, and meta-synthesis, contribute to determining essential actors in the field by analyzing the publication and citation trends, the…

Social networks have been recognized as a fertile learning environment, particularly in encouraging the exchange of knowledge. Students primarily use online communities and groups to read, exchange textbooks, make joint decisions, or share learning materials. Present work assesses the relationship between informal digital learning and formal…
