Due to its immersive and interactive nature, 360-degree video is becoming ever more popular. However, little is known about the public's viewpoints and attitudes regarding the use of this emerging technology in educational contexts. This study reviews the research evidence for 360° video, virtual learning environments and social media and presents…

Recent developments in cognitive and educational science highlight the role of the body in learning. Novel digital technologies increasingly facilitate bodily interaction. Aiming for understanding of the body's role in learning mathematics with technology, we reconsider the instrumental approach from a radical embodied cognitive science…

YouTube has become a global platform for learning and teaching. Its design as a social medium, its rapidly growing content and the obscurity of its search and recommendation system, however, frequently leave users with suboptimal results. Trying to give guidance, many professional websites started to publish ranked lists of educational channels.…

This study examines head nods produced as embodied and silent answers to polar questions before a transition relevance place has been reached. It discusses the notion of "response" and the ways in which the literature conceptualizes head nods. The analysis of video recordings of ordinary and institutional multiparty interactions shows…

Research with children and adults suggests verbal references to negative emotion support narrative recall. To date, however, the effects of gesture on emotion recall have been ignored. Children (4-6 years) and adults viewed videos containing negatively valenced, positively valenced, and emotionally neutral stories. The narrator provided gestures…

A solid ball placed on a rotating turntable is known to roll slowly around a circular path, at a speed 3.5 times slower than the turnable itself. If the ball is located in a straight track across a diameter of the turntable, then it accelerates rapidly to the edge. Both effects were filmed in slow motion using a video camera and a cake decoration…

As the pandemic subsides in the United States and parts of the country edge toward normalcy, NACAC professionals believe that virtual recruitment resources that colleges invested much effort in developing will not vanish. They say that virtual recruitment will have long-lasting staying power as a supplement to in-person recruitment. This article…

Preservice teachers (PSTs) often demonstrate difficulty learning to attend to content-specific student actions in-the-moment. However, machine learning algorithms applied to PSTs' viewing of 360 videos provides a potentially useful tool for teacher educators. In this paper, we describe the initial development of such a tool and the implications…

Video clubs, in which teachers meet to view videos of their classrooms in order to improve instruction, have become a popular means of professional development. With today's technology, these video clubs can be conducted virtually, yet little is known about the effectiveness of asynchronous or synchronous virtual video clubs. This study addressed…

Best practices for video-assisted debriefing (VAD) technology use cannot be developed because the characteristics of VAD that lead to successful debriefing have not been identified. The purpose of this qualitative, multiple-case study with embedded units sought to employ observation, participant interviews, and documentation review in exploring…

This design case focuses on the development of an alternative to Penn State's One Button Studio, but with a do-it-yourself mentality and a substantially smaller budget. The development of our one button video kiosk began as a class project but is part of a larger design-based research project. Video production is not something that all faculty,…

The evidence-based parenting program Video-Feedback Intervention to promote Positive Parenting and Sensitive Discipline (VIPP-SD) may have potential to also support teachers in primary schools in their interaction with children with behavior problems. We therefore adapted the intervention for use with primary school teachers (VIPP-School). Here we…

This study aimed at exploring kindergarten teachers' perceptions and usage of digital devices in their classrooms. A multiple case study (n = 4) was conducted to investigate how in-service experienced (n = 22) and novice (n = 24) kindergarten teachers interpreted the functional significance of digital devices, including the needs and challenges…

Dialogic instruction, a form of instruction that engages students in meaningful and substantive classroom dialogue, has been shown to benefit students in many ways. However, few studies on dialogic instruction have focused on the role and agency of classroom teachers as they navigate and negotiate the vagaries of classroom talk, especially in…

While social media is evolving rapidly, understanding its underlying and persistent features with the potential to support high-quality learning would provide opportunities to enhance competence acquisition and collaborative work in higher education. Moreover, the adoption of tools that students already use in their everyday lives facilitates the…
