This study aimed to describe students' ability to arrange proof of abstract algebra problems (Subgroups) after receiving Information Technology (IT)-assisted scaffolding materials. To achieve this objective, we conducted exploratory qualitative research with students of Mathematics Education, Universitas PGRI Ronggolawe Tuban, participating in the…

This qualitative study used a cooperative inquiry design to explore novice teachers' adoption of critical views in their descriptions, perceptions, and uses of technology during student teaching and first-year teaching. Interviews, observations, written philosophy of education statements, lesson plans, and digital teaching artifacts composed the…

Digital technologies have facilitated access to instructional multimedia materials, and a large body of literature has shown that these technologies can support students' learning. However, recent research also shows that many teachers have misconceptions about learning from multimedia materials. Further, numerous studies point out that numerous…

The potential contribution of digital tools to quality instruction is a widely debated issue in STEM education. As a first step to investigate this potential, it is necessary to understand how instructional quality and digital tool use are interrelated. Although previous research generally hinted that instructional quality and the use of digital…

The digital transformation of higher education, driven by technological advancements and evolving societal needs, presents both significant opportunities and critical challenges. This study integrates the technology acceptance model (TAM), diffusion of innovations (DOI), comprehensive literature review, in-depth case studies and empirical survey…

Information technology contributes to the transformation of the learning process because it changes the traditional system of teaching, based on outdated methodologies. The paper examined the current technologies used in music education in the context of learning process improvements in China. A sociological survey was conducted using the Stapel…

In the context of educational informatization, the Guide to Institutions of Higher Education in China have set clear expectations for Japanese language teachers' educational information technology applications. There is an urgent need for research on information technology applications and the influencing factors of Japanese language teachers in…

Mindfulness practices have proven to be effective for improving the mental health of many populations, including university students. However, these practices can be challenging for naive meditators. Virtual reality (VR) can create virtual scenarios that facilitate the practice of mindfulness. This study presents secondary data from a randomized…
