This research aims to develop video learning to recognize vowel letters through sign language with an approach that is suitable for children with kinesthetic learning styles, who often experience difficulties in the traditional learning process. This research draws on multiple learning intelligences, particularly kinesthetic intelligence, which…

The first MOOC course on geo-informatics, 'maps and the geospatial revolution' was provided as video materials by Penn State in July 2013, since then, the number of geo-informatics MOOC courses has increased significantly (Robinson et al., 2015). This study uses the edX geo-informatics course model as the origin of the experimental results to…

This study investigates the effectiveness of TED Talks in enhancing EFL university students' English-speaking skills for presentations. Despite the widespread use of TED Talks in language learning, limited research has examined their specific impact on overall presentation skills, including fluency, pronunciation, anxiety, and confidence in…

This longitudinal study (data collected from 2019 to 2023) examines the relation between Spanish-English bilingual Latino toddlers' (n=46; F=22; M=24) early gesture production (Mage=18.67 months; SD[subscript age]=1.02) and later language skills (M[subscript age]=36.87 months; SD[subscript age]=0.81). Video recordings at child-age 18-months…

Background: Accessing research can be difficult for individuals with developmental language disorder (DLD) and their supporting networks (e.g., family, speech-language therapists, and teachers). This challenge may be attributable to the DLD community's difficulty with searching and paying for scientific research and the complexity of language used…

Being connected to nature can have many benefits for children, including improved well-being, and more positive attitudes towards the environment. Ecological recording, as part of a citizen science project, may offer new opportunities for children to learn about, and connect with, nature. In this study, we investigate outcomes of an ecological…

Video-based instruction (VBI) is an effective means to teach employment skills to young adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). Within the category of VBI, video prompting (VP) is well-suited to teach multistep routines, and video modeling (VM) is better suited for social interactions. In this multiple probe design, three…

This study investigated similarities and differences in children's (N = 83, grades 4-6) narrative comprehension between text, audio, and non-verbal video, including measures of both comprehension products and processes. The aim was to understand how children engage with information across various media and, in doing so, address inconsistent…

Original version television represents not only a popular and accessible source of entertainment but also a valuable tool in foreign language learning and teaching. Building upon the potential of verbatim captions to facilitate speech segmentation and auditory word recognition, this study investigated pronunciation learning through exposure to…

Social media data has the potential to enable the exploration of public perspectives on health conditions, interventions and policies. However, the resource-intensive nature of qualitative analysis creates a barrier to the timely utilization of social media data. Artificial intelligence can provide innovative ways to reduce the burden by…

Person descriptions often lack the level of detail necessary to assist in the apprehension of a perpetrator. To date, it is not clear how person descriptions are obtained by frontline police officers. Worldwide, many police forces now use body worn video (BWV), which provides a unique opportunity to examine how frontline police officers gather…

The standing vertical jump (SVJ) is a classical topic in Newtonian mechanics (Fig. 1). Although the topic has also been treated by others (other terms used are "standing high jump" or "squat jump"), the present paper shows how a smartphone can be used to capture video of a jump and determine the jump height. A crucial…

The aim of this experiment was to examine the effect of different instructional strategies on student teachers' confirmation bias. Confirmation bias refers to the selectivity in finding and using evidence that fits one's own beliefs or hypotheses while neglecting evidence that is opposite to one's own beliefs or hypotheses (Nickerson, 1998). Dutch…

Transition can refer to the termination of one activity and initiation of another activity or movement across locations. Transitioning is a fundamental skill required for independence. However, individuals with developmental disabilities often require direct additional instruction to ensure their independent transitioning. Video modeling, an…

This study analyzes the mother-child interaction that takes place after co-viewing an educational video, comparing a group of 12 Spanish hearing mothers of deaf or hard of hearing (DHH) 7- to 9-year-olds and a group of 12 Spanish mothers of an age-matched cohort of children with typical hearing (TH). The results show that, in order to ascertain…
