Though limited research has explored the agentic video learning of Chinese as Foreign Language/CFL learners, little research has examined Chinese video learners' agency in Dynamic Assessment (DA) and Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD). This study challenges existing research that considers videos as merely supportive tools and learners as…

In the field of multimedia learning, instructional videos have become a widely used tool to facilitate knowledge acquisition across various educational contexts. However, designing these videos effectively is critical to enhancing learning outcomes and minimizing cognitive overload. To address this challenge, researchers have developed design…

The reflection on previous performance during debriefing plays an important role in learning from simulations. While debriefings are traditionally held as verbal debriefings (VD), advancements in video and software technology led to an increased use of video-assisted debriefings (VAD). Although VAD is nowadays considered to be the gold standard,…

This study provides evidence of the effect of video analysis of real classroom situations as a support for promoting the professional vision among primary education pre-service teachers. Specifically, it focuses on the Science Process Skills involved in scientific inquiry when teaching through this method. This quasi-experimental study (n = 90)…

This study demonstrates the use of two web-based programs, one to identify video preferences and the other to assess their reinforcing effects. We used the Multiple-Stimulus-Without-Replacement Preference Assessment Tool (MSWO PAT) to identify the video preference hierarchies of seven participants, ages 4-11 years old. We then used a customized…

Massive open online courses (MOOCs) have become one of the most popular ways of learning in recent years due to their flexibility and convenience. However, high dropout rate has become a prominent problem that hinders the further development of MOOCs. Therefore, the prediction of student dropouts is the key to further enhance the MOOCs platform.…

Video lectures in massive open online courses (MOOCs) provide an opportunity to not only deliver instructional content but also engage learners. While there are many different styles of video lectures, it is not clear how video styles affect learner engagement. This study analysed and critiqued different typologies of video styles and classified…

Purpose: The purpose of this conceptual paper is to define and explore the roles of mentors, the responsibilities and even misconceptions of their position in partnership schools, the characteristics of effective mentors, the gaps that exist in current mentor training and the need for updated and forward-thinking flexible and accessible mentor…

Due to current teacher shortages, there is renewed interest in mentoring beginning teachers for induction. Induction is an intellectually rigorous process of enculturating novice teachers into the professional teaching community (Carver-Thomas et al., 2020). Induction programs build on novice teachers' experiences in university teacher preparation…

Instructional videos have been increasingly critical to afford effective learning experiences in online courses, but most videos follow a lecturing monolog delivery format. This format tends to lead students to observe the videos passively. Previous laboratory studies have indicated that observing dialog videos of an instructor tutoring a tutee…

Fulfilling requests for media content in support of classroom and faculty research activities is demanding for academic libraries. Libraries strive to meet requests for media while working with challenges such as intellectual property license contracts, advances in digital communication technologies and copyright issues. This article provides an…

To further enhance the understanding of video education, researchers have started leveraging neuroscientific approaches to investigate the underlying cognitive processes and their correlation with learning outcomes. This concise review begins by examining recent behavioral studies that focus on teachers, students, and video media within the video…

A mixed methods randomized control trial (RCT) was employed to investigate the social validity ratings (i.e., acceptability, appropriateness, and feasibility) of middle-school students using an innovative program of virtual social scenarios called VOISS (Virtual reality (VR) Opportunities to Integrate Social Skills) compared to an evidence-based,…

Why does it take less time to remember an event than to experience it? Recent evidence suggests that the dynamic unfolding of events is temporally compressed in memory representations, but the exact nature of this compression mechanism remains unclear. The present study tested two possible mechanisms. First, it could be that memories compress the…

Our most moving experiences, the ones that "stick," are hardly ever static but are dynamic, like a conversation, a gesture, or a dance. Previous work has shown robust memory for simple actions (e.g., jumping or turning), but it remains an open question how we remember more dynamic sequences of complex and expressive actions. Separately,…
