Mouse tracking serves as an alternative to eye tracking in measuring the learning process in education because of its affordability. Moreover, mouse tracking does not require extra hardware, as in the case of eye tracking, because it is a feature in personal computers by default. Therefore, it is possible to implement mouse tracking in a massive…

In this article, the dynamics of a traditional toy, the yo-yo, are investigated theoretically and experimentally using smartphone sensors. In particular, using the gyroscope the angular velocity is measured. The experimental results are complemented thanks to a digital video analysis. The concordance between theoretical and experimental results is…

Podcasts are one of the fastest-growing media platforms for sharing content to meet both personal and professional interests. myPD Unplugged is a podcast about professional learning that is leveraging this popular platform to create "anywhere, anytime" professional learning for educators. The Office of Curriculum, Instruction, and…

How do the affective attributes that are specific to intermedial, interactive and located mediums of digitally-enabled performance materialise embodied, sensual and emotional involvements and reconfigure reality through new forms of intimacy, empathy and immediacy? This question is considered through a posthumanist account of performativity to…

We propose an experimental analogy to verify Kepler's second law using a spherical pendulum. We made a movie of a closed elliptical orbit of the pendulum and extracted the data position using the Tracker software. Analyzing the data, we measured the areas that the position vector sweeps showing the validity of Kepler's second law.

This paper demonstrates the use of smartphones in an experiment of light absorption and light scattering. The LED display and camera of the smartphone are used as the light source and as the detector, respectively. The color wheel is used to choose the color of the light source to be shone through the sample for analysis. The detector directly…

When we travel in a train moving at a certain velocity, we observe the stationary objects outside are moving backwards. These stationary objects seem to move due to a relative velocity. Consider that the stationary object outside the train is a man standing on the stationary floor watching a woman moving on a train. The woman on a train will see…

iPads have become increasingly popular as tools for teaching in early education. With their multifaceted and interactive affordances as handheld and mobile devices, they have been ascribed great potential to change and expand on classroom practice. However, the iPad often becomes just another technology hype in education, and explanations often…

There is now an emerging worldwide trend for mobile phones being banned from classrooms and schools. While some academics working in the area of educational technology have raised concerns, many others have so far failed to respond to what is a significant shift in the ongoing development of digital education. The paper considers how academic…

This case study was intended to explore whether wearable device use is associated with their demographic factors (e.g., device ownership and gender), using undergraduate students in a Hispanic Serving Institution. Preliminary findings of this two-way contingency table analysis suggested that students who own the device(s) are more likely to use it…

The incorporation of mobile learning methods (iLearning) into human anatomy and physiology classrooms has been debated with regard to its effectiveness in higher education. This study aimed to understand how iLearning affects college-aged students' perception of learning and engagement in an introductory human anatomy and physiology course using a…

We investigate student listening compliance, preference for audio versus print content, and exam performance when professionally produced podcasts are assigned as "readings" and provided in both audio and print formats. Listening/reading compliance for the assigned podcasts was high compared with figures reported in previous research.…

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of mobile phone usage policies on college students' learning. Based on quasi-experimental research, with pretest-posttest nonequivalent group design, two pre-existing groups were randomly assigned treatment conditions, namely the removal of students' mobile phones (Restricted Phone Access),…

This systematic literature review sought to examine whether iPad or other mobile technology use by school students aged 9 to 14 years enhanced academic outcomes. Conducted in March 2019 using the PRISMA statement, the review identified 43 studies published between 2010 and 2019 which specifically addressed the research question. Findings revealed…

The game application is one of the leading choices of cellular media users, according to a report from the Ministry of Communication and Information of Indonesia, at least 30 million are children and adults. However, there is a sharp perception that interactive games hinder children's education, which impacts lazy children to learn. This article…
