Virtual reality (VR) creates immersive environments that allow students to visualize and explore complex subjects in ways that traditional methods cannot achieve. This is the first systematic review examining VR to enhance skill acquisition in physical education (PE) in higher education in the 21st century. This study aims to analyze and explore…

This mixed-methods study investigated the effectiveness of Generative AI (GenAI) powered intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) in undergraduate physics education, specifically comparing learning outcomes between students using Khanmigo (Khan Academy's AI tutor) and the Google search engine. The study involved 69 undergraduate students divided into…

This study investigates the impact of the Imagine Math program, a digital supplemental learning solution, on math achievement. The research compares the performance of students who used the program with those who did not. Results indicate that users experienced, on average, a statistically significant improvement in their math performance.…

The integration of immersive technologies, such as 360-degree virtual reality (VR) in education presents a promising avenue for enhancing teaching and learning. However, educators often face challenges due to limited technical expertise and resource constraints. This study examined the usability and readiness of educators in adopting the 360 VR…

Recent technology advancements and the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the need for educators to transition from in-person to virtual and blended learning experiences, requiring instructors to take on multiple roles, including acting as instructional designers in many cases. To address this challenge, the Cross-Modalities Instructional Design Model…

In recent years, the intersection of music and coding has emerged as a cross-disciplinary approach to engage learners in both musical and computational expression. This article examines the motivations and framing of recent music and coding research through an analysis of 65 articles published between 2004 and 2024. We survey the key findings of…

Today's trend of teaching has changed quite significantly. After conducting online teaching, innovations in teaching are mushrooming.

This study explores the pedagogical implications of student-led course design using two widely adopted freemium learning management systems "(LMSs): MoodleCloud" and "Google Classroom." In a university-level ICT module at Complutense University of Madrid, students were tasked with designing parallel virtual classrooms using…

The use of more digital devices in learning has motivated the transition from paper-based to computer-based formats in large-scale international assessments, with typewriting as the prevalent input method in such educational studies. However, there remains limited exploration on whether differences arising from varied encoding systems in…

Although just-in-time teaching (JiTT) has proven effective in Western settings, its implementation in Asian nursing curricula, within China's distinctive pedagogical landscape, remains insufficient. Rain Classroom facilitates communication between students and teachers via smartphones or computers; however, its effective application to JiTT…

Nowadays, it is widely accepted that Information and Communication Technology (ICT) can promote positive changes in the teaching and learning process. This study explores how ICTs can be used in teaching and learning to enhance students' conceptual understanding and reasoning skills in mathematics. A mixed method case study (convergent parallel)…

In elementary school classrooms, Computational Thinking (CT) teaching often is embedded in problem- or project-based pedagogies and involves programming using Educational Robotics. Little is known, however, about how children solve problems in these contexts, and how task designs influence which CT and problem-solving processes they apply. In this…
