College students have a variety of temptations that can keep them from making the most of their learning in and out of the classroom. Moreover, students' habits and behaviors related to mobile device use can hinder their learning and can stymie faculty's effective teaching practices. To explore these issues, we conducted a phenomenological study…

Understanding the physicochemical properties of organic compounds with potential biological uses is central in current research topics. Thus, students must pursue the integration of different fields of chemistry to obtain and understand the physicochemical parameters that characterize the mechanism of action of key organics compounds. This…

Schools now face considerable pressure to be using educational data to inform decision-making and become more efficient. Key to this rise of the 'data-driven' school is the increased use of digital technologies -- with computer-based data processing fuelling hopes for the technology-driven 'smart schooling' and a general 'datafication' of…

Higher educational institutes (HEIs) are managing their resources by using learning management systems (LMS) which facilitate the learning processes. This paper aims to develop the relationships among success factors typically found in the technology, as well as the human and organisational aspects using an interpretive structural modelling (ISM)…

Assessment trace data, such as mouse positions and their timing, offer interesting and provocative reflections of individual differences yet are currently underutilized by testing professionals. In this article, we present a 10-step procedure to maximize the probability that a trace data modeling project will be successful: (1) grounding the…

Smartphones are widely used among high school students nowadays. With their constant use of this technology, they have become more dependent on it. This study assessed the extent of smartphone utilisation and the academic performance of the 195 junior high school students at a public national high school. Respondents were identified using…

A high-quality, foundational education offers lifelong benefits for young children. The problem is that working memory in pre-school-aged children is declining and could be impaired by the extraneous cognitive load imposed during engagement with screen media apps and/or preschool programs. Although the pedagogical practices associated with…

The current study aims to identify changing trends in digital play addiction tendencies among young children and parental guidance strategies before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic. In light of the bioecological model of development, it was hypothesized that the pandemic would have a significant impact on the addiction to digital play…

We used a single case concurrent multiple probe across participants design to evaluate the effects of a multi-component intervention package on the number of correct sentences used when writing about a story for three rural elementary students with intellectual or developmental disabilities and extensive support needs. The package was comprised of…

Significant advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) technologies have led to the development of Google Gemini, which can be used to provide automated writing assistance. Within higher education, this feature extends to research writing. However, skepticism is particularly evident as students, teachers, and researchers in universities explore…

This study investigated student-teachers' continuous intention to use mobile learning management system. The sample size of the participants was two hundred and sixty-one. The participants responded to online survey questionnaires consisting of items from the combination of both technology acceptance and the expectation confirmatory models. To…

This investigation sought to discern the impacts of different electronic note-taking strategies--collaborative, individual, and a hybrid of both--on the academic writing skills of Chinese EFL graduate students. The study engaged 185 participants, systematically assigned to one of four groups: those practicing collaborative electronic note-taking,…

This article describes workable strategies for instructors to introduce highly interactive question and answer (Q&A) sessions with accomplished guest speakers from industry. Two innovative strategies serve as the key factors behind the series' success: (1) using LinkedIn to partner with guest speakers, especially university alumni, who possess…

This research, to design and develop a concept map authoring support tool, adopts a semi-automatic concept mapping approach to help teachers create concept maps from English readings. A concept map is widely regarded as a useful teaching and learning tool. It offers many potential advantages apart from representing the students' knowledge and…

Information and communication technology (ICT) is an important element to improve teaching-learning practices. This paper is aimed to determine the barriers affecting the implementation of ICT in Ethiopian higher learning institutions by adapting the information system theory (i.e. Technology-Organization-Environment (TOE) framework). The study…
