The current educational disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has fuelled a plethora of investments and the use of educational technologies for Emergency Remote Learning (ERL). Despite the significance of online learning for ERL across most educational institutions, there are wide mixed perceptions about online learning during this pandemic.…

Self-directed learning is learning in which the conceptualization, design, conduct and evaluation of new content is directed and driven by the learner itself. This is an essential skill for students in the 21st century. Many large undergraduate courses use an online homework system to engage the whole class in the course material simultaneously. A…

This study explored the effects of virtual reality (VR) application on the process and outcome of skill learning. The participants consisted of 60 new employees in the customer network cable service division of a telecommunications company, and the study focused on the learning of optical-fibre fusion splicing skills. The skill-learning test…

To demonstrate whether individuals of the new generation have developed a unique and different learning model, research was conducted on children aged 10-11 in England, the United States, Australia and Germany. The qualities and the characteristics those children seek in the activities with which they spend more time were recognized. Using this…

Emerging technologies, such as the development of the Internet of Things and the transition to smart cities, and innovative handheld devices have led to big changes in many aspects of our lives, while more changes were imminent. Education is also a sector that has undergone huge changes due to the spreading of those devices. Even at the era of…

As online classrooms become more commonplace in K-12 education, teacher education programs seek to better prepare candidates for these contexts and are considering ways to address this additional preparation within their curricula. This article presents a design case of a 2-credit, 10-day, online course that was created to prepare 237 pre-service…

With the advent of internet technologies, students are increasingly turning towards social media and cross-platform messaging apps such as Whatsapp, Line and WeChat to support their learning processes.

Flipped Learning (FL) has emerged as an essential instructional approach in tertiary education. A common misconception is that FL is highly dependent on the use of video. Educators have the choice to flip content with learning interactions such as interactive slides, a timeline of events, infographics or even image sliders. H5P is an open-source…

This study aims at understanding the role of the tools chosen throughout the processes of solving a non-routine mathematical problem and communicating its solution. In assuming that problem-solving is a synchronous activity of mathematization and expression of mathematical thinking we take our proposed Mathematical Problem Solving with Technology…

Students with developmental disabilities and communication delays, particularly autism spectrum disorder (ASD), participate in academic instruction through a continuum of services and environments. This includes the use of web-conferencing and screen-sharing platforms to deliver instruction across a variety of settings. The use of systematic…

Contemporary instructors face a growing paradox: pedagogical research espouses the benefits of interactive learning, yet, due to funding pressures, large class sizes challenge their ability to implement these practices. The present research investigates how digital solutions, specifically an online adaptive reading technology (OART), can mitigate…

The aim of this study is to examine factors that affect secondary students' behavioural intention to use GeoGebra Augmented Reality to support a projectbased geometry learning environment. To achieve this purpose, we adopted technology acceptance model (TAM). A total of 54 students from two lower secondary schools in Indonesia were involved in…

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine school leaders' experiences with adoption and implementation of artificial intelligence systems in their schools.
