Competency-based education in social work (CSWE, 2022) demands active learning methods that demonstrate professional competencies and practice behaviors. Role-plays and simulations are methods that link learning in the classroom with practice. This article explores role-play and simulation variants: basic role-play, real play, student-scripted…

The rise of AI generated texts offers promise but creates new challenges for social work teaching. A recent survey found that 89% of higher education students used AI on their homework. AI generated text may be difficult to distinguish from a student's own work, yet are being submitted as the student's own work. This poses new challenges to…

Objective: Child sleep problems are commonly reported by parents of children aged 6--18 years, with a growing body of evidence describing the link between children's screen time and parental perceived child sleep problems. Using cross-sectional data, representative of the Victorian population, this study explored whether the relationship between…

This study examines the determinants of online academic dishonesty using the theory of planned behavior. We surveyed 1087 college students in Central Philippines and utilized a partial least squares-structural equation modeling analysis to evaluate a proposed model. Results demonstrate that 10 of the 11 hypothesized relationships are statistically…

Research on the digital divide in sub-Saharan education needs an overview of its conceptual developments and practices since the studies in the field of the digital divide emerged and were established around the mid-1990s. The present systematic literature review fills such a gap by using mixed methods to analyse three aspects of research on the…

Virtual reality (VR) technology has been widely used in nursing laboratory courses to effectively making up for the shortcomings of traditional teaching. However, challenges such as cell phone addiction, negative emotions, and reduced communication between teachers and students still exist during the application process, which makes it difficult…

Collaboration scripts are widely employed in online collaborative learning to enhance student engagement and facilitate collaboration. However, the optimal level of scripting remains a subject of debate. This study aims to address this issue by designing and developing different types of collaborative scripts implemented through conversational…

The potential of classroom videos to enhance reflective practices in pre-service teacher education is hindered by the sheer volume of captured activities. An AI-powered teacher dashboard could address this challenge by analyzing and visualizing information extracted from these videos, supporting reflection in video-based professional learning…

Although gender parity has been achieved in some STEM fields, gender disparities persist in computing, one of the fastest-growing and highest-earning career fields. In this systematic literature review, we expand upon academic momentum theory to categorize computing interventions intended to make computing environments more inclusive to girls and…

Significant advancements in voice chatbots have spurred interest into their role in second language learning (Conium, 2008), particularly their ability to assist in the development of learners' conversation skills in a target language. Many efforts have been made to explore AI's potential to act as conversation partners for language learners. Of…

The development and introduction of AI language models have transformed the way humans and institutions interact with technology, enabling natural and intuitive communication between humans and machines. This paper conducts a competence-based analysis of ChatGPT's task responses to provide insights into its language proficiency, critical analysis…

The increasing use of mobile devices in educational settings is mainly attributable to the significant contributions made by technological advancements. These devices now make it possible to incorporate mobile applications, such as augmented reality (AR), in order to provide students with learning disabilities with assistance in improving their…

Background: Today, active video games, in which players' own body movements are used to control the avatar, can be used to teach students motor skills by providing concurrent feedback. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of concurrent and delayed feedback on basketball free throw learning. Methods: Thirty female students…

Background: Computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) environments are hypothesised to offer a learning environment that satisfies basic psychological needs for autonomy, relatedness and competence, subsequently improving learning and motivational outcomes. However, the underlying mechanism of how basic psychological needs are fulfilled…

Previous research showed that short-term second language training modulates children's brain responses to language processing. However, little is known about whether short-term training from language-immersion apps would have the same effect on young children's neural processing of a newly learnt language. We examined the auditory event-related…
