The integration of technology is gaining recognition as an effective teaching method in health and physical education (HPE). While technological infrastructure and equipment limitations have been a huge obstacle to the integration of technology, the "bring your own device" initiatives help with that challenge. Infrastructure and…

Flipped learning approach combines video-based instruction (VBI) outside the classroom and problem-solving activities inside the classroom. The success of this instructional approach largely depends on students' acceptance to learn the video presentation at home during pre-classroom activities. However, there are still very scarce insights…

The proliferation of mobile computing technologies is playing major role in the growth of mobile learning (M-learning) market around the globe. The purpose of this paper is to develop a research model in the lines of commonly used models the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) and Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) by…

Online learning continues to grow at unprecedented rates. However, despite this unprecedented growth, there is little research on model formation and model validation for online learning. Two research-based models were created: eSUCCESS and R2D2/C3PO to help project managers, instructional designers, and developers design and implement online…

The use of tablets in a Greek kindergarten class (16 children aged 4--5) under the digital play framework (Bird & Edwards, 2015) is explored in this study. The Vygotskian framework was adapted with permission in the Greek language and socio-cultural context. The aim was to understand children's use of new, touchscreen technologies, but also to…

This study focused on perceived technology knowledge and acceptance of Iranian university students. Survey data were collected from 215 freshmen students of 12 majors from a state university of technology in Tehran, Iran. The survey was comprised of 29 items arranged into two scales, namely technology knowledge and technology acceptance (with…

The study contributes to training evaluation research by systematically comparing training outcomes between corporate e-learning and classroom training. We investigated a sample of vocational trainees (N = 86) in a field experiment with a time-lag design and examined their subjective as well as objective training success. While training success…

In the early 1900's the Catholic population in America sat around 10 million believers who were led by 14 Archbishops, 77 bishops, and approximately 12,000 priests (God in America, 2018). Currently, "Catholics in the U.S. number more than 74 million, about 24% of the U.S. population" (Pew Research Center, 2011, 46). For example, if a…

Despite a lack of empirical research on the effectiveness of administrative technologies in higher education (Anderson, Banker, & Ravindran, 2003; Selwyn, 2011), universities have pursued these technologies, or enterprise solutions, at an aggressive pace. Spending more than six billion dollars per year on enterprise solutions, higher education…

Educational technology organizations have developed ambassadorship programs and are actively seeking social media influencers to participate in ambassador program activities voluntarily, with no pay. The purpose of this quantitative study was to describe the perceived motivational needs of educators who apply and voluntarily participate in unpaid…

A number of probabilistic experiments are described to estimate e, p and v2, with results from computer simulations being used to investigate convergence. A number of possible classroom exercises and extensions are presented.

This paper explores the phenomena of the emergence of the use of artificial intelligence in teaching and learning in higher education. It investigates educational implications of emerging technologies on the way students learn and how institutions teach and evolve. Recent technological advancements and the increasing speed of adopting new…

Drawing on a decade of extensive digital storytelling at University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC), experienced faculty practitioners have expanded story work beyond traditional personal narratives into community engagement and public scholarship projects. While social and civic aspirations have been present in the work of Joe Lambert and…

The authors discuss the need for critical thinking that examines the foundations of the field of educational technology. They provide an overview of two activities that can allow this kind of examination to take place. The first focuses on identifying assumptions and evaluating their implications. The second focuses on Finn's ("Audiovisual…

The present study explores high school students' (aged 16-17) attitudes towards the use of technology Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in the English as foreign language (EFL) classroom. While digital competence has become one of the core skills in our society, ICT is gaining more presence in the EFL teaching and learning. However,…
