TikTok and other social media platforms have rapidly grown in popularity as a means for teachers to network and share pedagogical information and classroom practices. Classroom management is a particularly important skill for teachers as a support for students' academic, social, and emotional development and teacher well-being; however, many…

Interest in using mathematics and science videos in educational settings has surged in recent years. Yet there remains a gap in researchers' understanding of the ways in which students make sense of the ideas expressed in the videos. In this study, thematic analysis was used to identify how eight high school students made sense of and engaged with…

Digital traces have been used to measure self-regulated learning (SRL), yet the validity of inferences made about these traces has often been questioned. Recently, researchers have used multiple channels of data -- including digital traces, verbalizations, and self-reports -- to validate inferences about individual SRL events. Research on the…

As part of the growing interest in the measurement of complex constructs in recent years, a body of research examining the extent to which videos are a useful alternative to written text in tests and assessments has emerged. Early attempts to replace written text with videos featured actors, but lately, animated videos have become more popular.…

Specific aesthetic features of the object and observer's expertise seem to be related to the perception of motion aesthetics. How differing kinematic motion characteristics and their manifestation are related to the perception of motion aesthetics and how this relates to the observer's expertise is still investigated. It is hypothesized that…

The purpose of this qualitative descriptive study was to explore how online undergraduate students describe their use of instructional videos and their perceptions of the ease of use, usefulness, and enjoyment of instructional videos in colleges in the southeastern United States. According to the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), the use of…

The effect of digital tools (pre-lab videos and 3D models of experimental equipment) on student's performance of a typical lab assignment was studied quantitatively; for some students, these digital tools replaced physical access to the equipment. These students also participated in focus groups and gave good suggestions to make the digital tools…

Despite the popularity of video in ELT, video use in primary English classrooms remains under-scrutinized. Grounded in a social semiotic conceptualization of video as multimodal ensemble, this study explored 115 Chinese primary English teachers' use of videos and the influencing factors in the post-pandemic era. Data were collected through a…

Collaborative projects designed to generate research evidence involve knowledge exchange (KE) which hinges on the expectations and practices within the collaborating organisations. Existing literature about academic-police collaborations, and why they break down, has largely focused on different knowledge agendas, research timeframes and…

The article explores how video-testimony can be effectively harnessed for education in various contexts: classroom, and public remembrance spaces including museums, in a localized manner to develop empathy, critical thinking, and civic engagement in students and the methodological culture of educators. The article focuses on the testimonies of the…

In Spring 2020, the UK Government announced the cessation of in-person teaching for the vast majority of school-aged children in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Prompting an accelerated shift towards digital learning across the curriculum, this announcement was accompanied by a rise in market-based solutions to address the problem of keeping…

Instructional videos are often a key component of online learning, and their quality significantly influences online learning outcomes and student satisfaction. However, instructional video evaluation is time-consuming. To solve this problem, this study developed an automatic evaluation method for instructional videos. This method first…

We offer a Cultural Studies approach--a transdisciplinary field of study critically examining contemporary culture--to illuminate the roles of cultural producers and consumers in mediating the meaning of university rankings amidst a global media landscape. Using the case study of Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) and drawing on the concepts of: (1)…

Two years ago, I began a project based on the question, "If online platforms are providing more access for hate groups to recruit and radicalize members, then is it possible to use online platforms to combat discrimination, racism, and hatred?" Educating public audiences and promoting positive social change were laudable goals, but this…

Instructional videos risk overloading learners' limited working memory resources due to the transient information effect. Learner control is one way to mitigate this concern, but has shown almost zero overall effect and considerable heterogeneity. Consequently, it is essential to identify when learner control is most beneficial. The present study…
