This study investigates the effects of online instructors' use of initiation and maintenance rapport-building strategies (RBS) on Chinese EFL learners' CALL motivation and cognitive load management. Mixed methods research was used to concurrently triangulate different strands of data on the effects of RBS on 86 randomly sampled EFL learners. The…

CAEx (Computer-Assisted Experimentation) enables real-time experiments to be carried out using a computer; it includes data acquisition and sensor systems, as well as real-time measurement of numerous physical properties. The use of computer-assisted experimentation in the teaching of physics and chemistry in Moroccan secondary schools underwent…

Different variables such as motivation, achievement, and engagement have been investigated in studies on gamification in the field of educational technologies. However, the obtained results differ, which emphasizes the need for studies based on concrete findings related to current trends and needs. In this study, we aim to reveal current research…

Empirical evidence has consistently shown that interactive questions are an effective strategy for strengthening student learning through instructional videos. However, research has not directly addressed the crucial question of whether the beneficial effects of interactive questions in instructional videos are attributable to the presence of…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative force in the field of journalism, reshaping various aspects of news production, content delivery, and audience engagement. This study uses the theory of disruptive innovation to examine the impact of AI in journalism education. We conducted 14 in-depth interviews with Accrediting Council…

Feedback is an integral aspect of developing self-regulated learning in that it enables the student an opportunity for reflection, making changes, and learning. The computer-based feedback system supports this systematic review in exploring how improvement in academic performance, metacognitive reasoning, and emotional resilience has taken place…

The swift advancement of artificial intelligence, especially large language models (LLMs), has generated novel prospects for improving educational methodologies. Nonetheless, the successful incorporation of these technologies into pedagogical methods, such as flipped classrooms, continues to pose a challenge. This study investigates the…

Reading for writing tasks have been widely implemented in past decades, but research is still scarce on computer-mediated reading for writing. With a growing interest in collaborative writing and collaborative reading, spurred on by the broader awareness of sociocultural theory and the collaborative nature of digital technologies, we proposed an…

This design case details the ten-year (2014-present) iterative process to design and develop a graph-based computer-assisted program to support middle school students' development of collaborative argumentation. We begin by describing the first two iterations of the design and discuss how we learned from the process failures. This paper focuses on…

This paper presents the design of a personalized learning agent powered by the Agentic RAG technique. The agent can interpret learners' queries and autonomously decide which tools should be used to generate the most suitable response. When the learner shares an Open Educational Resource (OER) they wish to learn from, the agent first breaks the…

Background: The integration of generative artificial intelligence (Gen-AI) into second language (L2) education has opened new possibilities for personalized and adaptive instruction. While Gen-AI has shown promise in supporting language production skills, its application in reading, particularly in pre-reading scaffolding, remains underexplored.…

Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies have been increasingly recognised for their transformative potential in education. However, limited research has examined the emotional and behavioural impacts of AI-powered robots on students. To bridge this gap, the present study explored whether instruction supported by AI-powered robots enhances…

The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) is pervasive across numerous fields, including education. However, previous literature reviews have not thoroughly examined the current trends in research design pertaining to AI-assisted learning, nor have they sufficiently addressed the roles of AI applications and teachers within this…

Background/purpose: The research was conducted to explore how digital transformation can enhance LLCT teaching quality by integrating advanced technologies, improving interactivity, and fostering critical thinking among cadres. The main purpose is to analyze the necessity, current status, challenges, and solutions for digital transformation in…

Despite the widespread use of electronic accounting systems in professional practice, South African accounting education often lags, with teachers frequently prioritising manual accounting skills over the integration of Computer-Aided Learning (CAL). This reliance on traditional methods, potentially shaped by a complex combination of internal and…
