Within physics education research (PER), resource theory has proven to be a useful framework for investigating knowledge and learning and informing instructional design. To analyze learning over longer timescales and across cases, PER scholars must first identify and describe the resources activated within and across physics contexts and domains.…

Learning experience design (LXD) is a new wave in educational technology and learning design. This study was conducted to clarify conceptual change to practice by applying a systematic literature review to a combination text mining and bibliometric analysis technique to visualization network. Based on the study selection articles from SCOPUS. Our…

Designing and implementing purposefully developed tasks have been linked to students' understanding of mathematical topics. We report on design principles and intentions that guided the development of "inquiry-oriented tasks." Through a qualitative analysis of the tasks, we identified seven themes that encapsulated these design…

This report reviews studies on language teachers as materials developers in language education, particularly focusing on how language teachers act as materials users, materials analysts, and materials designers when engaging with language learning and teaching materials. We contend that the three dimensions of materials development - that is,…

Despite the metaverse having been increasingly designed, developed, and applied to education, critical issues regarding the lack of truly immersive learning environments, custom tools, clear instructional design, and inconvenience of using the platform, and ethics and privacy concerns exist. This study aimed to design and develop a 3-D metaverse…

One of the major effects of COVID-19 upon the entire world from December 2019 onwards were the severe restrictions placed upon global and domestic movements. Adhering to lockdown measures, most individuals around the world were unable to travel, either within their own country or abroad. However, during this unprecedented period, the researcher…

This article details the context and design considerations for an online course accompanying a field-based practicum for a school librarian certification program at a regional university in Texas. These strategies could be helpful to other library science educators designing learning experiences that support fieldwork. We conclude by discussing…

Instructional Designers (IDs) are talented assets to higher education institutions (HEIs) that have positioned online course development as part of long-term strategic plans. This study investigated the experiences of IDs involved in online course development while working dyadically with faculty members in U.S. HEIs. The study focused on the…

In this design case, we describe our design process that resulted in recommendations for a four-year undergraduate curriculum in transdisciplinary studies. The case is centered on a fast-paced, two-week design "sprint" undertaken by the two authors, which involved consolidating and synthesizing program evaluation data and course designs…

Universal Design (UD), a theory that encompasses a proactive approach to accessibility and inclusion, has spread from its roots in architecture and product design to a host of applications including educational contexts. Over more than two decades, applications of UD in postsecondary settings have undergone exponential growth. In this theoretical…

Course design academies are typically intensive, offered in multi-day format, integrate an explicit backward design framework, and leverage multi-disciplinary participation. This article describes an "unbundled" course design academy model that considers the impacts of COVID-19 on faculty members: trauma, and their increased design…

The study aimed to determine the effectiveness of the blended learning modalities used by teachers in teaching Environmental Science classes in the new normal and their relationship to their academic performance. The researcher utilized the descriptive-correlational design and employed the random sampling technique. The respondents of the study…

Gamification allows for the implementation of experiences that simulate the design of (video) games, giving individuals the opportunity to be the protagonists in them. Its inclusion in the educational environment responds to the need to adapt teaching-learning processes to the characteristics of homo videoludens, placing value once again on the…

Life expectancy at birth is the highest of all times and tends to increase. This leads to an older society and brings out various needs that are not taken into consideration before, one of which is the education of older adults. People usually get the idea that older adults cannot learn or do not feel the need to learn. However, learning is an…

The focus of this research is on values about methods, a specific instructional theory framework construct that represents a person's opinions about the usefulness of instructional methods. Previous studies have shown that values about methods have a "good guy/bad guy" structure, where instructional methods such as apprenticeship are…
