Background/purpose: This study examines the evolution of information technology-driven learning models aligned with the policies and programs outlined in the strategic plan of the Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia (UPI) aimed at becoming a leading institution. This includes the advancement of information and communication technology-based learning,…

This study qualitatively develops further understandings regarding knowledge and identity construction within computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) research by applying discourse analysis and the dialogical self theory (DST) to investigate the role of interpersonal and intrapersonal voices in facilitating knowledge construction. We…

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effects of a self-paced digital working memory (WM) intervention on preschoolers with ADHD symptoms and explore the relation between WM and time perception (TP) through a randomized controlled trial. Method: Fifty preschoolers between four-to-six years of age (M = 4.93 years) were randomly assigned to…

Background: Online learning is becoming increasingly popular among learners. To enhance the effectiveness of online learning, researchers have embedded an affective pedagogical agent (PA) on the computer screen to help regulate learners' emotions and support their learning. However, previous research has paid little attention to the effects of…

Background/Context: Children enter kindergarten with widely varying backgrounds and academic skill levels (Little et al., 2024). Kindergarten teachers face the challenge of meeting children where they are at the start of the year and helping them master critical skills by the end of the year, regardless of where each child starts. Differentiated…

Primary informal caregivers perform most of the caring work with no financial compensation and often no training, experiencing the burden of care. Unless their socioeconomic status allows them to hire a formal caregiver for their care recipients or use healthcare facilities, they need to spend their opportunity cost to take care of their care…

Behavioral skills training (BST) is considered one of the most effective staff training techniques to implement a wide variety of behavioral technologies; however, research has found a lack of implementation of BST across human service settings due to a shortage of organizational time and resources. The purpose of the present study was first to…

Previously defined profiles for using a computer algebra system (CAS) describe prototypical uses of such a tool. When students use a dynamic geometry environment (DGE), however, new opportunities arise for transitions within and beyond the DGE. In this article, CAS profiles are used to explore students' uses of a DGE. Four cases of students, all…

Computer-based assessments is becoming more and more common in mathematics education, and because the digital media entails other demands than paper-based tests, potential threats against validity must be considered. In this study we investigate how preparatory instructions and digital familiarity, may be of importance for test validity. 77 lower…

Studies have reported the importance of intervention programs to support early literacy in preschool. However, very few studies have tested the efficacy of intervention programs based on the syllabic method. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a novel computer-based program based on the syllabic method for preschoolers (the Simo-syl…

This article discusses the integration of three concepts central to the enterprise of computer-supported collaborative learning: namely, collaboration scripts, self-regulation, and group awareness. It does so through consideration of five reports in this Special Issue that address the integration challenge. Various themes are extracted and…

The use of chatbots in language learning has been on the rise. In recent Computer-Assisted Language Learning (CALL) research, there is a consensus that rule-based, scripted voice systems are optimal for language learning. Such systems integrate well into instructed language learning in that interactions with the user are predictable and…

Ignoring technology in teaching English language in EFL contexts persuaded the researchers to do this study. In fact, this research looked at how Saudi Arabian EFL learners' academic achievement (AA), creativity, and academic buoyancy (AB) were affected by vocabulary acquisition with and without the use of technology. Fifty intermediate EFL…

Most studies on technology integration in mathematics education are focused on teachers' perceptions or students' academic achievement. However, it is necessary to learn how students perceive their learning in this environment. This basic qualitative study focuses on students' experiences with 1:1 computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL)…

The aim of this study is to discuss the need for improved intercultural communicative competence (ICC) training for pre-service Chinese as a Second Language (CSL) teachers who travel abroad to teach. Previous studies have shown that pre-service CSL teachers often struggle with intercultural communication, and this study investigates the reasons…
