Lowe, Heather – Educational Technology, 2016
Dartmouth and MIT have developed educational behavior apps and wearable devices that collect contiguous streams of data from student users. Given the consent of the user, the app collects information about a student's physical activity, sleep patterns, and location to form conjectures about social and academic behavior. These apps have the…

Sibanyoni, Nhlanhla A.; Alexander, Patricia M. – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2018
In theory, educational applications that are engaging and motivating should easily persuade learners to use a mobile device for studying. Since this technology is already familiar to learners, mobile learning should be easily accessible; given a suitable m-learning application, learners could practice mathematics anytime or anywhere. LevelUp is an…

Atanga, Comfort; Jones, Beth A.; Krueger, Lacy E.; Lu, Shulan – Journal of Special Education Technology, 2020
Assistive technology (AT) helps bridge the gap between students with learning disabilities (LD) and their peers without LD. However, this implies a need for teachers to become well-trained and proficient in the use of AT. There are established AT competencies for educators, and AT services professionals must be knowledgeable about AT to select and…
