Developing critical thinking is becoming increasingly important as is giving and receiving feedback during the learning process. The aim of this work is to study how technology can scaffold peer assessment activities to develop critical thinking among pre-service teachers and study the relevance of giving and receiving feedback. A series of…

Background: One of the technologies that can be used to enhance the education process is digital stories. Digital stories can be used for different purposes due to their benefits to the education process. When the research conducted on higher levels of education has been examined, it has been determined that the use of digital stories in science…

This study investigated the factors influencing science teachers' 'Artificial Intelligence' (AI) utilization by using the 'Technology Acceptance Model' (TAM). The factors investigated alongside TAM variables were teachers' data like; age, sex, and residence type. TAM items that were correlated in this study included; self-esteem, stress and…

Research indicates educators benefit from developing Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK), a combination of constructs that inform the design of pedagogically-sound technology-integrated instruction. Applying a mixed-methods explanatory sequential study design, we examined if and how novice K-12 teachers, who developed TPACK during…

The information revolution has transformed higher education. After the COVID-19 pandemic, teachers and instructors were encouraged to improve technology-enhanced teaching methods. Furthermore, various factors influenced the adoption of internet and digital-based technologies as an aspect of teaching methodology, including its usefulness, ease of…

Sense of success and self-efficacy regarding technology integration in teaching are among the most important factors that influence teachers' well-being and professional development, and may have a substantial impact on student learning. In this quantitative study (N = 735 K-12 teachers in Israel), we explored the factors contributing to sense of…

The purpose of this study was to reveal the effect of digital technology-assisted STEM (Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) education on academic achievement. To achieve this purpose, experimental studies, including pre-test and post-test, were examined by meta-analysis. The study's data were obtained from 34 studies that met the…

This research continues the tradition of Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) studies aimed at better understanding the development of pre-service teachers' TPACK. The aim of the study is to show what are the areas of TPACK that pre-service teachers perceived as important and relevant for them, from a teacher training course. This…

A critical issue in education since 2020 has been the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the teaching and learning process. The pandemic has affected all areas of education and foreign language teaching has not been the exception. The study presents key aspects of teacher experience and training in relation to their use of ICT, which has become…

Infrared (IR) technologies have been universally acknowledged as a valuable pedagogical tool for exploring novel and abstract scientific subjects in science education. This study explores the roles of IR images played in middle school students' Evidence-based Reasoning (EBR) process in support of the understanding of the heat radiation process.…

In Thai mathematics classrooms, there is a lack of attention to support students' mathematical problem-solving skills by working from real-world contexts that make sense to students. This study aimed to investigate how preservice mathematics teachers' problem-solving can be explored in their content course, intervening with technology and…

In Germany, there is a shortage of skilled workers in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) and especially in technology with declining interest in technology and with supposedly fewer teachers in technology education in the next 20 years. The present study examined whether students' interest in STEM is dependent…

Aim/Purpose: The main aims of this research are to explore the moderating effects of gender on the relationships of such factors and the intention to use mobile learning, to examine the factors that influence m-learning acceptance in the universities and higher education institutions (HEI) in Iraq, and to investigate the influence of the intention…

Teachers and students had an unusual experience in 2020. Due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, regular teaching and learning in schools were suspended in many countries. The prolonged school closure presented unprecedented challenges because all teaching and learning activities had to be converted to a fully online format. This article…

Although previous research on Virtual Reality (VR) demonstrated the effects of particular learning environment characteristics on learning, none of these studies constructed their virtual learning environment from a constructive alignment perspective. Therefore, this experimental study aims to investigate the impact of a constructively aligned…
