Person-centered care is instrumental in the treatment of individuals with dementia. Despite this finding, research on the efficacy of training future healthcare providers to implement person-centered care for individuals with dementia is limited. Simulation-based education serves as one training method, but its effects of preparing students to…

Augmented Reality has a positive impact in the world of education. Systematic review studies and article reviews have provided evidence of this positive impact. Augmented reality is an effective medium for learning, especially during a pandemic. The keyword used to find the articles on the Scopus database was "augmented AND reality AND in AND…

This study examines the use of artificial intelligence-based assessment systems in education and their impact on student achievement. AI technologies make the learning experience more compelling by monitoring and evaluating student performance through data analysis and machine learning, thereby individualizing the assessment process. This study…

This study examines teachers' motivations for using artificial intelligence (AI) applications in education from the perspective of Expectancy-Value Theory. The Expectancy-Value Theory is a framework used to explain the key factors that influence individuals' motivation to perform a specific task. In this study, the two main components of the…

The purpose of this study was twofold: 1) to examine the effect of physical activity and public health course on perceived exercise benefits/barriers, stages of exercise behavior change, and technology dependence of undergraduate students, and 2) to explain how the physical activity and public health course supports undergraduate students in terms…

It is crucial that academic institutions offer support to their increasingly diverse student bodies. LGBTQIA+ students often report negative experiences in relation to campus climate and treatment. The aim of this qualitative research was to explore the experiences of LGBTQIA+ students who attend(ed) a collaborative (staff and student),…

While the COVID-19 pandemic significantly transformed post-secondary course delivery formats, little attention has been paid to post-pandemic learner preferences. To address this gap, we designed two scales to advance our understanding of learner preferences for online learning modalities: the Modalities of Digital Education -- Learner Preference…

In the chemical industry, a new generation of decision-makers is emerging in the next 5 to 10 years with a higher affinity for the use of videos to find information and to connect with other individuals. Through the digital transformation, an "on-demand" culture has become usual. As individuals want to access information at any time, B2B…

In recent years, small-scale studies have suggested that we may be able to substantially strengthen children's general cognitive abilities and intelligence quotient (IQ) scores using a relational operant skills training program (SMART). Only one of these studies to date has included an active Control Condition, and that study reported the smallest…

We study the augmented reality sandbox (ARSB) as an embodied learning environment to foster meaning making in the context of bivariable calculus. We present the case of Tiago, a first-year bachelor chemistry student, performing a series of tasks based on embodied design, including perception-based, action-based and incorporation-based tasks.…

This article discusses visual techniques for detecting test items that would be optimal to be selected to the final compilation on the one hand and, on the other hand, to out-select those items that would lower the quality of the compilation. Some classic visual tools are discussed, first, in a practical manner in diagnosing the logical,…

The appeal of a shorter testing time makes a computer adaptive testing approach highly desirable for use in multiple assessment and learning contexts. However, for those who have been tasked with designing, configuring, and deploying adaptive tests for operational use at scale, preparing an adaptive test is anything but simple. The process often…

The shift to online education has dealt several important pedagogical lessons in a very short time frame, none more so than approaches to assessments. This experience, coupled to improved access to education, will likely see online assessments remain as a major component of modern mainstream education. The powerful technologies that facilitate the…

The use of realistic visualizations has gained considerable interest due to the proliferation of virtual reality equipment. This review is concerned with the theoretical basis, technical implementation, cognitive effects, and educational implications of using realistic visualizations. Realism can be useful for learners, but in several studies,…

Dental anatomy is an integrated, core fundamental dental course, which prepares students for all future clinical dental courses. This study aimed to build up an online dental learning platform of micro-computed tomography-based three-dimensional (3D) tooth models with pulp cavity, and to further evaluate its effectiveness for dental anatomy…
