Background: Although there is research-based evidence on the educational potential of information and communication technologies as teaching and learning resources for schools, studies focused on the real benefits and risks associated with online activities of students with intellectual disabilities are still scarce. The purpose of this study was…

COVID-19 has caused great changes in education. Routines, practices, and especially the technologies used in teaching have differentiated at all levels of education. The purpose of this study is to determine the technologies used by faculty members for instructional purposes before and during the COVID-19 pandemic and their perspectives on the use…

The use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) in higher education institutions has become a necessity rather than an option. As higher education institutions enrol students for conventional and distance education programs, lecturers are not only compelled to equip themselves with technological knowledge and skills, but are also…

The rising prevalence of online courses and ubiquitous smartphone use pose challenges to researchers and instructors. Open questions concern the effectiveness of digital interventions under unsupervised non-lab conditions, as well as potential associations between interruptions, smartphone usage, and learning. We experimentally tested a web-based…

Children in the digital era are exposed to the advancement of information technology and multimedia that might bring both positive and negative influence toward their development. During early childhood, children are using mostly their senses to explore the world around them, including learning some values from the story books exposed to them.…

The traditional face-to-face learning approach, which has been practiced for centuries, is gradually being replaced by a new learning approach. Today's technology and research in the field of educational sciences show that the use of the Internet and information technologies in the field of education will have a direct impact on students'…

The development of Augmented Reality (AR) media is the goal of this research. The research method used in this research activity is development research. This method is carried out in nine steps. Research data were collected through interviews, observation and questionnaires. The instruments used to measure the quality of teaching materials are…

This work presents the benefits of self-directed learning activities as tools for enhancing critical thinking of university students. Self-directed learning is best introduced to students during the transition period from high school to the university (Van et al., 2015), and then reinforced throughout the university years. Interestingly,…

Augmented reality has become an important educational technology in teaching-learning. Technology embedded learning provides an enhanced perception of the existing material. Therefore, this study presents a systematic literature review of the scope of AR in educational settings by reviewing 72 research articles published in reputed journals…

The COVID-19 pandemic made it necessary for instructors to innovate, and some of the innovations will persist and be refined post-pandemic. An economics elective at Claremont McKenna College provides examples. Innovations likely to persist include replacing in-class exams with context-rich assignments and conducting a set of student presentations…

Individuals increasingly rely on digital media technologies to learn about and access new information. Yet, despite the dramatic rise in electronic media use among youth and adults, our understanding of its impact, opportunities, and challenges within environmental education remains limited, especially in home contexts. Using a learning ecology…

This study examined the use of Advancity Learning Management Systems (ALMS) and the Moodle Learning Management Systems (LMS) in learning settings, as well as online exams, within the framework of Transactional Distance Theory. With 146 college students (n[subscript female] = 102, n[subscript male] = 44) as voluntary participants, data was gathered…

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is twofold: to identify and map contemporary research on advanced technology implementations for problem-solving purposes in the manufacturing industry, and to further understand the organizational learning possibilities of advanced technology problem-solving in the manufacturing industry.…

The diversity and advance of information, communication, and analytical technologies and their increasing adoption to assist instruction and learning give rise to various technology-driven conferences (e.g., artificial intelligence in education) in educational technology. Previous reviews on educational technology commonly focused on journal…

This study investigated determinants of the behavioural intention of Open Distance Learning (ODL) students to use digital tools and resources for learning in Nigeria. The study utilized an online questionnaire to gather data from 522 ODL students from an ODL institution in Nigeria. The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) was…
