Background: Primary science education is critical for developing scientific literacy and fostering long-term interest in STEM. However, implementation faces challenges such as limited teacher preparation, rigid curricula, and unequal digital access. Purpose: This study aims to map the intellectual structure and emerging trends in primary science…

Improving academic performance and achievement requires educational systems to adopt inclusive learning practices that recognize and accommodate the diverse needs of all students. Inclusive education emphasizes equitable access to learning opportunities, tailored instructional methods, and supportive environments that value each learner's…

First-year elementary pre-service teachers usually conduct field observations but are barely offered opportunities to engage in well-structured teaching situations. In the current study, we implemented mixed-reality simulations (MRS) in a mathematics methods course to improve elementary pre-service teacher's abilities to elicit, question, and…

E-learning anxiety plays a key role in students' success in online courses. One of the factors that may affect students' e-learning anxiety is computer self-efficacy (CSE). However, the role of CSE in high school students' e-learning anxiety has remained unexplored in the Iranian context. Therefore, the present mixed-methods study purports to…

Purpose: The Catholic Church expects theological institutes, priests and seminarians to be well-informed, critical and creative users of information and communications technology. Currently, most theological institutes use the traditional face-to-face teaching method. An attempt to implement blended learning as an innovative teaching and learning…

Online teachers are an under-researched population, but their perspectives are crucial to the successful implementation of online education. A fully online section of an established face-to-face (F2F) two-semester undergraduate anatomy course with a prosection laboratory commenced in 2012 at The University of Western Ontario, Canada. Professors'…

This paper focuses on widening participation in relation to under-represented student negotiations of and trajectories through university by drawing attention to students' informal digital practices for studying and social interactions associated with undergraduate student life. Drawing on a two-year UK study and Holland et al.'s [1998.…

In recent sociomaterialist, materialist and post-human theorizing which foregrounds the importance of objects and bodies, ideas of consciousness and intentionality are seen as potentially tainted either with Cartesian mind-body splits or with subjectivities that are too discursively constructed. At the same time, new theories of affect as…

This study explored academic advisor use and perceptions of values, motives, and institutional support of SMS texting as a communication channel with students. Theoretical concepts in Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and adaptive leadership guided the study as well as existing survey research on Computer-Mediated Communication (CMC) in…

This study aimed to assess the contributory roles of parental involvement (PI), parental acceptance/rejection (PAR), academic self-efficacy (ASE), computer user self-efficacy (CUSE) vis-à-vis gender and the onset of deafness on the academic resilience (AR) of deaf learners who participated in e-learning during the pandemic. The Bioecological…

We aimed to examine the effect of ICT use, parental support and student hindering on science achievement in Turkey, USA and South Korea with using PISA 2018 data. PISA is one of the biggest international assessment study aiming comparison of students' academic capabilities in science, mathematics and reading among participant countries. For this…

The purpose of this literature review is to identify patterns and discuss key perspectives from empirical studies published during the last decade that explore how young children (birth to six years old) and teachers together engage with digital technologies in early childhood education and care institutions. An inductive thematic analysis results…

Aim: Investigating the relationship between what Japanese elementary school students (aged 8 to 12) actually do and what they want to do in their free time, and clarifying the problems concerning Japanese children's free time. Background: Previous studies reported that 51.2% of Japanese fifth and sixth graders answered that they were either…

In this study, it was aimed to determine the digital literacy levels of university students. The study also aimed to examine the differentiation status of university students in terms of various variables of digital literacy levels. In addition, in the study, the digital literacy levels of university students were determined by gender, type of…

Recently, the integration of computer-based feedback (CBF) systems, as assistive tools for instructors, into EFL writing contexts has attracted researchers' attention. However, EFL learners' perceptions toward such tools' application remain under-investigated. Therefore, this study investigates EFL learners' perceptions toward integrating CBF into…
