This study examines the perspectives and lived experiences of 10 urban secondary mathematics teachers from two epicenters of COVID-19 in the United States regarding their transition to digital learning during the 2019-2020 academic year. We use case study methodology with phenomenological interviews to gather insights into the teachers' efforts to…

Despite its significant clinical use, there is no standardized point-of-care ultrasonography (POCUS) curriculum in undergraduate medical education. As Covid-19 abruptly mandated the use of virtual education, instructors were challenged to incorporate and improve POCUS education within these new constraints. It was hypothesized that integrating…

Assistive technology (AT), a major source of adapted educational services, has been accepted as a valuable tool for students with disabilities in schools. Teacher readiness is a key factor in determining a student's successful inclusion, but many general and special education teachers are not fully prepared to implement AT in schools. In this…

The purpose of this exploratory study was to examine whether specific attitudes and beliefs among pre-service teachers about the use of computer games in mathematics teaching and learning predict their intention to integrate computer games in future mathematics teaching. Data were collected via a questionnaire from 119 teacher education students…

The paper explores possibilities and constraints for adopting Information Communication Technology (ICT) as a pedagogical tool among teachers and students in community secondary schools (CSSs). The study used five CSSs located in rural peripheral in Serengeti District. Simple random and purposive sampling procedures were used to select a sample of…

The advancements of technology have allowed digital transformation to reach all productive sectors, including the education sector and its members. This transformation is linked to emerging technologies, the digitalization of processes and resources, and the demand for users to upgrade to the latest technological updates. This research aims to…

Artificial intelligence (AI) has been widely adopted in higher education. However, the current research on AI in higher education is limited, lacking both breadth and depth. In the present study, we addressed this research gap by exploring students' perception of learning in AI-related courses facilitated by an open experiential AI platform.…

The primary objective of the research reported on here was to decide whether a combined framework of the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) and technological pedagogical and content knowledge (TPACK) could be a valid and reliable model to predict Indonesian pre-service science teachers' (PSTs') actual use of technology (AUT) during teaching…

Despite many known educational benefits of digital game-based learning, teaching with digital games is not yet a common practice in formal education. The role that digital game-based learning might play in future school teaching can be explored by examining the behavioral intentions of pre-service teachers as the ultimate gatekeepers. In this…

The pandemic has changed the way we look at our professional development opportunities. UNG's Distance Education & Technology Integration (DETI) made the decision to completely revamp our professional development options. In 2012 we first developed a self-paced fully online workshop to onboard new online/hybrid faculty quickly and efficiently.…

This paper contains information on a study which investigated the use of GeoGebra software in teaching and learning circle geometry enhancing Grade 11 learners' academic achievement in South Africa. The study employed a quantitative methodological research design that included non-equivalent (pre-test and post-test) quasi-experimental research.…

The effectiveness of science instruction undoubtedly relies heavily on the teacher. Moreover, international guidelines for science teacher training and the standards for their competencies emphasize the adequate utilization of instructional technologies. In this light, sophisticated instruction of science demands a teacher who has a high…

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to evaluate the impact of Introduction of Smart Teaching and Learning (INSTAL) project on students' academic achievements in terms of students' science scores. Information and communication technologies (ICT)-based initiative was introduced in Sindh Education Foundation (SEF) schools at District Khairpur,…

Based on related academic and semi-academic discourse, this paper aims to investigate the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on important actors and their expectations in the higher education (HE) sector. As open organisations, higher education institutions (HEIs) are influenced and shaped by different stakeholders' numerous and often controversial…

This study investigated the specification of educational compatibility within a technology acceptance model (TAM) suited to engaging educational technologies. Attitudes towards virtual reality (VR) for learning was used to test the experimental model. One hundred and seventy-nine valid survey responses were collected from 517 potential…
