In a predominantly digital communicative context, the political practices of young university students are relevant for the vitality of public spheres and the consolidation of participatory democracy. The objective of this study was to learn how the use of digital media relates to the political talk and participation practices of university…

The purpose of the study is to determine the degree of Internet addiction in engineering students. It takes as a theoretical reference the scale proposed by Young (1998), which establish the criteria and ranges of addiction. The instrument is in Likert format with responses ranging from 1 (rarely) to 5 (always). The participants were 306 students…

Recent research has emphasized the importance of leveraging embodied interactions for learning critical STEM concepts. ELASTIC3S--an embodied environment for learning about cross-cutting concepts (i.e., non-linear growth)--allows learners to interact with different science simulations through whole-body gestures. Technological advances in gesture…

The objective assessment of the development level of information and communications technology (ICT) in education can support the government in formulating and implement ICT policies. The article first introduced the Entire-Array-Polygon (EAP) indicator method and then designed an evaluation indicator system which containing five first indicators…

The purpose of this note is to introduce two challenging problems in geometry that were inspired by some well-known problems in high school geometry. These problems can be explored in the dynamic geometry environments of computer construction programmes.

Advances in computer science and computational linguistics have yielded new, and faster, computational approaches to structuring and analyzing textual data. These approaches perform well on tasks like information extraction, but their ability to identify complex, socially constructed, and unsettled theoretical concepts--a central goal of…

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a foundational lifesaving skill for which medical personnel are expected to be proficient. Frequent refresher training is needed to prevent the involved skills from decaying. Regular low-dose, high-frequency training for staff at fixed intervals has proven successful at maintaining CPR competence but does not…

Many students worry about taking and succeeding in the gateway math courses needed to enter most community college degree and certificate programs. Their concern is not surprising given that these courses have traditionally had some of the highest failure and withdrawal rates at community colleges, in many cases disproportionally affecting…

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the policy of lockdowns, on business in general, and certain sectors of the economy, has been widely discussed during the last year. Less is known, however, about the impact on specific groups of economic actors within the UK economy. This small-scale research project explores the impact that the pandemic…

As big data and artificial intelligence become integral to business decision-making, business management students require proficiency in data science and big data. However, the use of instructional technologies, such as augmented reality (AR) and mind mapping to teach these subjects is limited. This study introduces an innovative pedagogical model…

The traditional curriculum design methods suffer from issues like outdated content and limited instructional approaches. To address these, this article proposes an optimized curriculum design system that integrates CAD and neural network models. This system enables intelligent curriculum content generation, introduces CAD-assisted instructional…

Background: Collaborative learning, which emphasises cooperative group techniques, intersects with the evolving role of social media as a tool. Understanding how cultural values influence these dynamics is crucial for effectively integrating and utilising social media into collaborative learning environments. Objective: This research aims to…

Since the end of 2022, global discussions on Artificial Intelligence (AI) have surged, influencing diverse societal groups, such as teachers, students and policymakers. This case study focuses on Swedish primary school students aged 11-12. The aim is to examine their cognitive and affective perceptions of AI and their current usage. Data,…

Objectives: To investigate the effectiveness of accommodation policies and teaching practices for secondary students with mild intellectual disabilities, the present study compared the probability that the secondary school accommodated students- if they received assistive technology, computer, and various combinations of accommodations for the…

This book explores the transformative role of artificial intelligence in educational assessment, catering to researchers, educators, administrators, policymakers, and technologists involved in shaping the future of education. It delves into the foundations of AI-assisted assessment, innovative question types and formats, data analysis techniques,…
