There is not a large body of literature about digital resources found and accessed autonomously by high school students while studying mathematics, whereas this topic has become more and more relevant in times of lockdown due to the pandemic. Italy has been one of the first countries facing lockdown for an extended time, making this country a…

There is growing awareness of the need for mathematics and computing to quantitatively understand the complex dynamics and feedbacks in the life sciences. Although several institutions and research groups are conducting pioneering multidisciplinary research, communication and education across fields remain a bottleneck. The opportunity is ripe for…

ICT-based learning media innovation is very relevant to support the learning process. Therefore, this study aims to develop interactive multimedia products that are suitable for use in learning activities. The method in this research is research and development (R&D) which adopts the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation,…

The annual instructional virtual team Project X brings together professors and students from across the globe to engage in client projects. The 2020 project was challenged by the global disruption of the COVID-19 pandemic. This paper draws on a quantitative dataset from a post-project survey among 500 participating students and a qualitative…

Parent involvement is a reverently studied, crucial concept that impacts overall student achievement. An educational technology tool, involvED, was developed by a School Psychologist and Licensed Clinical Social Worker using principles of behavioral change research and grounded in family systems theory. Incorporating a scientific approach for…

Background: Motivation is an important factor in the learning process and supporting students' motivation in mathematics is a significant challenge for educators. Educational technologies, such as digital games, offer potential for engagement in mathematics learning activities. Objectives: To contrast the general decrement in student motivation in…

The purpose of this study is to contribute to preservice teachers' technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK). For this purpose, preservice teachers (n = 8) learned visual programming language, designed technology-based reading activities, and observed students completing these activities. A case study approach was employed, and…

Information and communication technology (ICT) not only improved communication in the 21st century, but it also led to rethinking the facilitation of online learning. University students in the information age have access to the internet, chat rooms, Twitter, and other social media. However, the literature reveals that most students use these…

Results from the IEA's International Computer and Information Literacy Study (ICILS) Teacher Panel show a general increase in the use of information and communication technology (ICT) for teaching after the COVID-19 outbreak. This brief examines how changes in the availability of school ICT resources and recent participation in ICT-related…

As an innovative educational tool, e-textbooks has gained wide interest -- especially with the growth of e-learning. As with any new technology, understanding how users adopt these technologies is still unclear. In the study reported on here we proposed a theoretical model shaping the determinants of teachers' attitude toward e-textbooks.…

This study focuses on the content of technology-related courses offered by teacher training institutions to determine the factors that will avoid technology integration in teacher education/training. Two methods are combined in the research. As a first step, the integration of technology in education/teaching models literature was analyzed,…

With the increasing presence of 'datafied' educational settings across Australia, critical components of teachers' educational practice and work have been quantified. Digital data collected through teachers' labour in and around the classroom links to educational practice and the commercial datafication of teachers' online persona. Often described…

Currently, the physics disciplines are represented by a significantly larger number of professional males, compared to females. Although the problem of underrepresentation of female physicists has several causes, one likely reason is the lower interest that female school students have in physics activities. Several instructional solutions have…

Intelligent tutoring systems (ITSs) have drawn researchers' attention as a means of providing personalized learning content, adaptive feedback, and instructional strategies based on students' characteristics and learning needs. Few studies, however, have explored how prospective and practicing teachers integrate ITSs into their lessons. This study…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is changing the way people live in society. New technologies powered by AI have been applied in different sectors of the economy and the educational context is no different. AI has been considered a key to the development of learning strategies, especially in distance education. In this sense, this research aimed to…
