Background: Though pedagogical artificial agents are expected to play a crucial role in the years to come, earlier studies provide inconsistent results regarding their effect on learning. This might be because their potential for exhibiting subtle nonverbal behaviours we know from human teachers has been untapped. What is more, there is little…

Background: It has been assumed that prompting students to plan, monitor and evaluate their learning process could stimulate strategy use and thereby improve learning outcomes. Objectives: This study aimed to examine the effects of metacognitive prompts on students' self-regulated learning (SRL) and learning outcomes in the context of…

Background: There is a lack of critical or empirical work interrogating the nature and purpose of evaluating technology use in education. Objectives: In this study, we examine the values underpinning the evaluation of technology use in education through field specialist perceptions. The study also poses critical reflections about the rigour of…

Concept maps are the tools used to facilitate meaningful conceptual learning. In this study, an augmented reality (AR)-based concept map (AR-ConMAP) application was developed to facilitate the concept map creation process to overcome the challenges that students face when creating concept maps. The study was carried out as a case study.…

Given the complex roles of special educators, it is important that they be offered tailored professional development (PD) opportunities. Unfortunately, most PD tends to occur in "sit-and-get" formats, with generalized content that may or may not meet the needs of attendees. Districts are starting to investigate the use of…

This article presents an analysis of contradictions expressed by pre-service mathematics teachers when performing two modeling tasks using their own technological devices. The study is based on theoretical aspects of contradictions in the fields of expansive learning and modeling with digital technologies. Technology and modeling tasks were…

Public media has the potential to play a powerful role in the media landscape for tweens and teens. With the By/With/For Youth: Inspiring Next Gen Public Media Audiences project, the Joan Ganz Cooney Center conducted focus group interviews with tweens and teens across the country in order to better understand how young people are engaging with…

This qualitative case study investigated teacher educators at a Midwest Division II university to gain insight to the obstacles faced when integrating technology and the decision-making process in relation to technology integration. Combining the constructivist theory with the TPaCK framework, the study aimed to make a connection as to the…

Information and communication technology (ICT) is used in all spheres of life, including education. Educators are encouraged to use ICT in the classroom, and their technology is constantly improving. The relevance of the study lies in the fact that ICT has become an essential issue and a powerful tool in the educational process. The ICT is applied…

360-degree video is an emerging technology that creates virtually authentic learning environment. It has received considerable attention in the last few years. Nevertheless, not many scholars have reviewed research articles on this technology and its applications in education. This study intends to address this gap. To this end, fifty-two research…

How can schools integrate the lessons of remote learning during the COVID-19 pandemic into their face-to-face teaching. What guidelines can teachers use to be sure they are integrating technology? In this article, we propose an adaptation of the Triple E Framework to guide this work. The goal of the framework is to ensure that technology use…

This paper explores the intentions of faculty to continue to use digital technologies post-pandemic in a specific institutional context. To do this, this study adapted the Expectation-Confirmation Model to investigate instructors' continuance usage intentions of digital technologies in enhancing teaching activities at a prestigious university in…

In this article, we present a study on teachers' perceptions about Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a tool to support teaching in Estonian K-12 education. Estonia is promoting technological innovation in education. According to the Index of Readiness for Digital Lifelong Learning (IRDLL), Estonia was ranked first among 27 European countries. In…

This study identifies the knowledge and use of Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) among university students according to their fields of study and gender. The questionnaire was given to 757 students as a nonprobabilistic sample. The results show that no differences exist between the sexes regarding the knowledge or use of ICT, nor…

Many of today's teachers have successfully incorporated technology into their classrooms through digitally based approaches to student learning. However, the flipped classroom pedagogy can provide for rich experiences in the classroom as the students learn lessons at their own pace, leaving the teachers free to create fun, hands-on lessons in the…
