Challenge: While hands-on laboratory experiences are an important component of biomedical engineering curricula, many of the topics which would often benefit most from these experiences are often too time-, space-, and resource-intensive to incorporate into laboratory classes. One such topic is electrophysiology, where phenomena are hard to…

In this practitioner-focused article, the authors present a mathematical writing activity for preservice elementary school teachers. The products of this activity, referred to as "journals," are detailed, representation-rich explanations of problems solved in small groups. These journals were originally exchanged across institutions in a…

Background: We aimed to characterize relationships between delayed high school start time policy, which is known to lengthen school night sleep duration, and patterns in activity outcomes: physical activity, non-school electronic screen time (non-schoolwork), and sports and extracurricular activity among adolescents. Methods: We used data from the…

Background: Multimedia learning, encapsulating both visual and verbal information, has become pivotal in educational settings, with extensive research underscoring its influence. However, a notable research gap exists concerning the application and effectiveness of multimedia learning principles, precisely segmenting, pre-training and modality,…

Communication skills are important to support students in conveying information orally or in writing. This research aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Remap-TPS learning model assisted Wizer.me website and MindMup to improve students' communication skills at SMAN 8 Malang. Quasiexperimental research uses pretest-posttest control groups…

This novel qualitative study explores the transformative potential of Virtual Reality (VR) in augmenting Computer-Based Training (CBT) for energy industry contractors. By immersing participants in four VR simulations, the study delves into the heart of how learners perceive hazardous work environments and emergency procedures in VR. The findings…

Little is known about how parents utilized parental mediation strategies during the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, which saw an upsurge in youths' technology use and increased family time at home. The current study surveyed the parents of 964 U.S. school-aged children for their mediation behaviors, perceptions of media risk, views about…

Educational applications of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) for English language learning have become increasingly prevalent in K-12 classroom contexts. These tools have enormous potential to provide unique learning experiences and increase students' engagement; however, the benefits depend on appropriate implementation and use.…

Although Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) has demonstrated significant potential in education, there is a lack of research on pre-service teachers' behavioral intentions toward GAI. This study is based on the UTAUT2 model and, for the first time, introduces perceived risk as a key variable to systematically investigate the factors…

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into healthcare and research introduces sophisticated diagnostic and treatment capabilities but also raises significant ethical challenges from development to deployment and evaluation, requiring comprehensive ethical training and interdisciplinary collaboration to ensure the responsible use of AI…

As technology becomes increasingly integrated into educational settings, computer-assisted translation (CAT) tools are gaining recognition as valuable aids in language learning. This study introduces "Termsoup", a CAT application, as a tool to support learners in bridging the gap between disciplines or subject areas within English for…

This study focuses on the pervasive issues of cyberbullying and problematic internet use (PIU) among youth, particularly in children with disabilities. To elucidate the role of parents in mitigating these challenges, the study examines the prevalence of three parenting styles (permissive/authoritarian/authoritative), and their correlation with…

Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has become a commonly used technology on campuses by students, faculty, and administrators. Research indicates that more programs and schools are teaching artificial intelligence (AI)-related concepts, but relatively few have comprehensive policies governing AI use on campus--and there is a significant…

To address existing challenges in teaching theoretical mechanics and enhance instructional quality, the teaching team implemented innovative reforms. Guided by a "student-centered" philosophy and powered by digital intelligence technologies with "Chaoxing" AI as the engine, the course reconstructed a three-dimensional objective…

Background/purpose: The digitalization of education has raised concerns about the psychological impact of digital overload on students. This study aimed to investigate the mediating role of academic resilience in the relationship between digital overload and school burnout among high school students in Kuwait. Materials/methods: The study employed…
