The literature review reveals a gap in secondary English Language Arts (ELA) teachers' perception of students' moral intelligence (MI). While many character education studies examine the student perspective, this study contributes to the limited research on secondary ELA teachers' perceptions of students' moral intelligence and how it can be…

Modern technology plays an important role in helping students from all walks of life to overcome barriers and benefit from teaching and learning. However, due to a lack of knowledge or skills with regards to educational technologies, K-12 teachers struggle to harness the full potential of digitalisation to support student learning and engagement,…

As people attach increasing importance to the learning environment and design of teaching materials in STEM, how to design teaching materials that enable students to seamlessly integrate the learning of scientific investigation, engineering design, mathematical reasoning, and technical skills has become increasingly important. The purpose of this…

Understanding and computing power and the relationship between sample size and power are facilitated via a Shiny app. The Shiny app allows students to solve various scenarios by entering different parameters or moving sliders.

Computer modeling promotes mechanistic reasoning when learners build and analyze models of complex systems to explore causal mechanisms and use models to generate patterns. StarLogo Nova (SLN), an agent-based modeling (ABM) environment, enables novice programmers to model a system's individual components and investigate its emergent, collective…

K-12 classroom settings are not yet incorporating emerging technologies such as ubiquitous computing, augmented reality, nor even touch surfaces, despite the significant impact that such media have made in many other aspects of our lives. Unfortunately, classroom environments have not generally evolved to support students in the new modes of…

This study focuses on visual creativity and how it can be supported with computer technologies and thereby be used to support learning and instruction. However, studies related to computer-enabled visual creativity have not been frequently explored. As such, the current research proposes a model consisting of four major factors: (a) computer-aided…

Numerous previous studies have reported the difficulties associated with learning the Brønsted-Lowry acid-base model. The Brønsted-Lowry acid-base model requires complex systems thinking because it considers random interactions between reactant and product particles and effective particle collisions in forward and reverse reactions. The system…

This dissertation recommends research to investigate the effects inhibitory control and perceptual attention have on the cyber security decision-making process. Understanding the effects that inhibitory control and perceptual attention have on the security decision-making process will allow for better defenses to be developed against social…

This dissertation focuses on the dynamics between teachers and machines at the intersections of design, teaching labor, and pedagogy when automation is deployed in writing classrooms. The sites of analysis are Eli Review and Turnitin, two technologies that represent different design approaches that center around "informating" or…

We review the development of a mobile makerspace platform focused on digital fabrication in particular additive manufacturing (AM) or what is more commonly referred to as 3D printing. We engage in a reflexive analysis of our curriculum development as a part of the iterative process of this design-based research project. We review the component…

In this article, the authors describe their experiences with planning, implementing, and revising a lesson for which the goal is for students to consider the mathematical and pragmatic issues that are related to a task of maximizing the area for a fixed perimeter. The authors also wanted students to engage in the Standards for Mathematical…

The purpose of this research was to characterize the curation activity of preservice teachers practicing digital curation by constructing "knowledge exhibitions" in an academic course. Our database included 64 knowledge exhibitions on the Scoop.it platform. Factor analysis of curator's activities resulted in 3 factors, contributing…

Online proctoring generally refers to the practice of proctors monitoring an exam over the internet, usually through a webcam. This technology has gained relevance during the current COVID-19 pandemic, given that the social distance owing to health reasons has consequently led to the switching of all learning and assessment activities to online…

Taking as its point of departure, situations arising in classrooms exposed to a heavy use of CAS, exemplified by the Danish upper secondary school mathematics program, the paper discusses the use of "old" cognitive frameworks of mathematics education as an alternative to more recent theoretical developments in the field. The paper draws…
