Mindfulness apps have shown promise to reduce stress and improve well-being among college students however the mechanisms of these beneficial effects are less clear. In addition, findings are inconclusive about the necessary dose of mindfulness app usage to achieve improvements in mental health. Thus, more dose-response research is needed on…

One perceived advantage of computer-based testing is that accessibility tools can be embedded within the testing format, allowing students with disabilities to use them when necessary to remove unique barriers within testing. However, an important assumption is that students activate and use the tools when needed. Initial data from large-scale…

Chemistry simulations using interactive graphic user interfaces (GUIs) represent uniquely effective and safe tools to support multidimensional learning. Computer literacy and coding skills have become increasingly important in the chemical sciences. In response to both of these facts, a series of Jupyter notebooks hosted on Google Colaboratory…

In this research, we investigated whether the use of GeoGebra Augmented Reality (AR) can foster students in conceptualising a mathematical object by manipulating its different semiotic representations. We designed and implemented, with thirty university mathematics students, a teaching sequence on paraboloids using GeoGebra AR supported by…

3D printers have facilitated a wealth of 3D printed molecular models illustrating key structural concepts for student learning. However, general adoption of 3D printed models in the organic chemistry classroom proceeds slowly as the majority of consumer-grade 3D (fused deposition modeling (FDM) and resin) printers are inherently monochromatic,…

During the global pandemic of the 2020--21 school year, school districts rapidly transitioned from the traditional in-person structure of school to distance learning. This research study sought to understand how superintendents envisioned virtual learning as an option within their school district portfolio, exploring the barriers faced in its…

This resource provides helpful information for high school teachers and counselors to better understand computer science, an industry that has many high-wage jobs open across the country. The resource supports effective advising by including an overview of computer science, cybersecurity, and networking; defines in-demand computer science skills…

This study examined the effects of embodied learning experiences on students' understanding of computational thinking (CT) concepts and their ability to solve CT problems. In a mixed-reality learning environment, students mapped CT concepts, such as sequencing and loops, onto their bodily movements. These movements were later applied to robot…

The emotional well-being of international undergraduates plays a critical role in their ability to adapt to the demands of online learning. Despite the relaxation of pandemic-related restrictions in China, many international students continue to choose online learning as their preferred mode of study. This study aimed to measure international…

Background and Context: Learning to create self-directed and personally authentic programming projects involves encountering challenges and learning to get unstuck. Objective: This article investigates how one U.S. fourth-grade classroom engaged in practices which emphasized community supports, in the context of the classroom's implementation and…

This synthesis report summarises the impact of technology-enabled learning (TEL) initiatives by the Commonwealth of Learning (COL) across Member Countries, emphasising the role of TEL in enhancing educational outcomes. The report provides an overview of blended learning (BL) interventions, highlighting successful strategies, technological…

This teaching tip explores the integration of AI tools into database education. The author describes how instructors can use AI tools to prepare teaching materials and how students can use AI to facilitate database development. The teaching tips provided encompass both course-level objectives and assignment-specific strategies. The inclusion of AI…

Artificial intelligence (AI) is being deeply integrated into human society. In the future, human collaboration with AI is inevitable. Therefore, exploring the attitudes of future workers--represented by current K-12 children--towards AI has become crucial. Robots stand as typical representatives of AI. Robot programming education is an important…

This paper proposes an updated framework for the evaluation of the computer-assisted language learning (CALL) framework, further developed from Chapelle (2001) and González-Lloret and Ortega (2014). Based on a review of prominent previous CALL evaluation frameworks, an exploration of relevant literature in formal evaluation and my own first-hand…

This study investigates the impact of augmented reality (AR) on vocabulary and content learning, as well as attitudes, in a content and language integrated learning (CLIL) setting. The research, based on convenience sampling, involved 162 secondary education students from three schools, divided into an experimental group (EG) and a control group…
