Context: Mathematics education remains a critical focus for national education improvement efforts, particularly in light of the learning loss due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2024, the average NAEP math score for eighth graders dropped by 8 points compared to 2019. Since 2022, scores have risen for higher-performing students in the 75th and 90th…

Artificial intelligence (AI) is experiencing evolutional changes currently, influencing nearly all areas of society and, mainly, the way we learn. This has promoted many scholars and practitioners in the field of education to consider AI as a significant topic for research. This study investigates EFL students' perceptions regarding the impact of…

This study explores how teachers' attitudes towards ICT and classroom diversity of students with special educational needs (SEN) influence the use of educational technologies. Introducing the Simpson Index as a novel measure of SEN diversity, results highlight that personal satisfaction with technology use predicts its adoption, particularly in…

This article is devoted to a topic, which is relevant due to the need to create an effective educational environment for gifted students through the use of modern methodological tools within the framework of education digitalization. Study purpose: to identify the state and prospects for the development of pedagogical competencies of future law…

3D-printing technology has become increasingly important in recent years, offering many possibilities for mathematics teaching and learning. From our point of view, the field of calculus seems to be particularly suitable for the use of 3D-printing. Using the example of 3D-printed graphs of functions, the use of this technology in calculus is…

From ancient times, the different features of planets and moons have created a huge interest. Aristarchus was one of the first to study the relative relations among Earth, Moon, and Sun. This interest has remained until today, and therefore it is always relevant to make this knowledge more appealing to the younger generations. Nowadays, smartphone…

A big challenge in educational resources construction is the intelligent and personalized resource recommendation for learners. This paper proposes a semantic recommendation framework of educational resources based on semantic web and pedagogics. In this framework, a domain ontology is constructed to describe the knowledge structure of the domain.…

Research on mobile game-based learning has been gaining attention in the past few years. To understand the potential of mobile game-based learning in STEM education, a systematic review was conducted. Based on a set of inclusion and exclusion criteria, 30 articles published during the years of 2010 through 2019 were included. Analyses were…

According to UNESCO, sustainable education requires a participatory development process. This article reports the results of three case studies about sustainable education using e-learning technologies, where the focus of the analysis is on the need for sustainable and participatory development processes. The research approach is based on a…

Most research on learning technology uses clickstreams and questionnaires as their primary source of quantitative data. This study presents the outcomes of a systematic literature review of empirical evidence on the capabilities of multimodal data (MMD) for human learning. This paper provides an overview of what and how MMD have been used to…

This paper explores the role and history of systems theory and thinking in the fields of instructional/educational technology and design. The foundations of ID/ET as fields are rich in behavioral, systematic, and positivist notions of process, but we assert that it is weaker in the reflective, thoughtful, deep and meaningful orientations. Woven…

Having stepped down as editor of Educational Technology Research & Development after 15 years of service, and having learned much from Steve Ross, who served as editor for 18 years, and from many of the leading scholars in the broad and multidisciplinary field of educational technology, I have been thinking of the value added by the research…

A breakthrough in the development of online learning occurred with the utilization of Learning Management Systems (LMS) as a tool for creating, distributing, tracking, and managing various types of educational and training material. In recent years, major technological enhancements transformed the LMS into powerful software for providing…

In 2001, Prensky characterised a new generation of learners entering higher education as "digital natives" -- naturally digitally literate and inherently proficient users of technology. While many educational technology researchers have long argued for the need to move beyond the digital native assumptions proposed by Prensky and other…

GeoGebra is the most well-known Dynamic Geometry Application (DGA) in the world. Many researchers are interested in GeoGebra as a tool to make interactive mathematics resources. Here we focus on a snapping function in GeoGebra, which is a kind of general feature of DGA: the mouse cursor is attracted to a specific position or a specific object and…
