The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted medical education, causing a shift towards online learning. However, this transition posed challenges in administering online assessments, particularly in proctoring and detecting academic misconduct. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of academic misconduct among medical students during…

This paper offers a creative methodology for co-creating and analysing data when conducting research with children, families and practitioners in the early years. Instead of relying heavily on either adult observation or language when, for example, interviewing children, we propose the method of choreographed visual montage. We show the novelty…

The present study examines the interconnectedness of spontaneous scientific argumentation and socially shared metacognitive regulation (SSMR) during a collaborative inquiry in which students are tasked with working in a virtual learning environment for marine biological issues. From a larger dataset of 39 groups, four small student groups were…

The current monument guide teaching has proven to have many challenges, as the learning effectiveness may be reduced by external interference in the real guide activities, and online approaches may cause the problem of insufficient interaction. This study integrated role-playing and multi-dimensional scaffolding theories to develop a remote…

This study explored the utilization of a collaborative teaching strategy to enhance online instruction among graduate school students. Qualitative action research design was utilized to further determine possible areas for improvement of the implementation of the strategy. Thirty-eight graduate students were interviewed to assess the use of the…

Concerningly, pre-service teachers might utilize practices during practicum and student teaching experiences in ways that are less than satisfactory, or even harmful, to students, peers, or mentors. Mixed reality simulation (MRS), an educational tool for practicing teaching skills, may be a warranted approach to field experience that limits…

This paper explores the value in expanding existing compliance-focused approaches to research ethics, to one which facilitates researchers' ongoing ethical reflexivity. The authors explore the use of 'ethical trialogues' -- or technology-mediated reflective discussions -- between doctoral research students as a means of fostering deeper ethical…

This research study examines various factors that influence the effectiveness of online learning and students' interest in applying technology in learning for secondary schools in Hong Kong. Confirmatory Factor Analysis confirmed the questionnaire developed for this study, demonstrating reliability and validity in measuring five factors: family…

This study examines the growing issue of academic dishonesty in online assessments, a challenge intensified by the expansion of digital learning platforms. Specifically, it investigates the relationship between students' online engagement and their performance in online versus traditional paper-and-pencil tests. Employing a cross-sectional…

This study investigates the effects of utilizing the AI course assistant, Spark, on student academic performance at Los Angeles Pacific University (LAPU). Focusing on grade outcomes, the research reveals that students who engaged with Spark three or more times achieved significantly higher grades compared to those who did not use the AI assistant.…

In this qualitative study, we explored the perceived facilitators and barriers of school-based engagement among parents of youth with disabilities during the COVID-19 pandemic. Drawing from 642 open-ended responses collected via a national survey during January to February of 2021, we employed a thematic analysis to examine how parents navigated…

This study was designed to examine how the science teaching process was conducted using Science Coaster, a virtual reality application developed for fourth-grade primary school students, and to identify the effects of this process on students' academic achievement, motivation, and experiences. The research was structured as a case study, and the…

The purpose of this study is to develop an Android-based augmented reality learning media using Unity software to improve students' creative thinking skills in polyhedral ethno-geometry materials. The development of augmented reality learning media follows the ADDIE development model, which consists of five phases: analysis, design, development,…

This study presents a bibliometric analysis of 1995 peer-reviewed articles on the use of technology in primary science education published in the Web of Science between 1974 and April 2025. It explores publication trends, citation structures, author collaborations, thematic patterns, and international networks. Results show an annual average of…

In university education, lecturers often adopt didactic lectures in undergraduate calculus classes. This method has been judged for making students passive recipients of calculus knowledge who cannot construct their own knowledge of the discipline. One way to make didactic lecture more interactive and engaging in calculus class is to encourage…
