The application of the metaverse provides a new perspective for educational innovation and talent training in the new century. By creating multi-channel perceptions such as sight, hearing, and touch through the VR/AR/MR immersive environment, the study found that learners' emotional engagement and cognitive level can be effectively improved in the…

The influence of social media on education has been glowing in the last decade, and it shows a potential path to develop learners' practical skills. The purposes of the study were to investigate the effectiveness of TikTok as a supportive activity on grade 7 students' Thai traditional dancing art learning achievement and to investigate the…

Microlearning, in which lecture recordings are segmented into parts, saw renewed focus as a means of maintaining student engagement amid the challenging conditions of the COVID-19 pandemic. While many institutions shifted to remote provision with segmented lecture recordings, there is a lack of consensus about the length that these segments should…

Integrating digital media into education and fostering school students' competencies in computational thinking and media literacy requires comprehensive information and communication technology (ICT)-related pre-service teacher training. However, it remains unclear whether such training is associated with a more frequent use of ICT in classrooms…

While the COVID-19 pandemic brought distance learning to a much wider audience, leading to contingency planning and becoming an unexpected solution for some students, it has also uncovered significant systemic problems and given some a negative outlook on distance learning. Due to the quick but not necessarily effective transition to distance…

Technological knowledge, technological content knowledge), and technological pedagogical knowledge is swiftly becoming a popular topic in the field of physical education teacher education (PETE). The Initial PETE Standards set forth by SHAPE America indicate that preservice physical education teachers (PPETs) should be taught how to use and teach…

Pronunciation has been historically excluded from the language skills and sub-skills taught in the language classroom (Isaacs, 2009). Several factors or limitations such as a lack of training and time, and not being an English native speaker, among others, contribute to teachers' feelings of insecurity when teaching this language sub-skill…

Over the years, developing countries have experienced tremendous growth in access to information and communication technology (ICT). This growth in access to ICT has brought about massive changes in many sectors within the society, including education. Researchers explored teacher educators' attitudes and use of instructional and web-based…

The present study examined how the type of school technology and teachers' technological experiences (either personal or pedagogical) were related to teacher perceptions of culturally responsive teaching in technology-supported learning environments. Additionally, the study assessed the moderating effects of school technology interactivity on the…

There is strong theoretical and empirical support for the use of digital games for learning. Despite their research support, digital games are not widely used in mathematics classrooms. One main contributor to this lack of adoption is the paucity of extant research on the extent to which mathematics teachers are using digital games, how teachers…

The present study contributes to the understanding of physics students' representational competence by examining specific bodily practices (e.g. gestures, enactment) of students' interaction and constructions of representations in relation to a digital learning environment. We present and analyse video data of upper-secondary school students'…

Purpose: Virtual reality (VR) technologies have expanded their application domains towards education with pedagogical benefits including fully immersive learning environment and in-depth user engagement through scenario-based virtual simulations. Motion sickness (MS), however, has become one of the long-standing key challenges of the VR…

Purpose: This study aims to present a scaffolding framework incorporating sophisticated technology that can inform instructional design to support student inquiry learning in the self-regulated online environment. Design/methodology/approach: The classic predict, observe and explain (POE) framework has been extended through the incorporation of an…

Makerspace tools and technologies are becoming increasingly popular in K-12 educational settings. While makerspace education has the potential to democratize educational spaces, the integration of these new technologies into the classroom is not trivial. In this paper, we analyze a university-based makerspace apprenticeship program for pre-service…

The main purpose of this study was to examine a case in the context of a Faculty Technology Mentoring (FTM) program that provided customised technology integration support to faculty members in different disciplines. The FTM was implemented as a university-wide professional development model to enhance faculty members' adoption of technology into…
