This paper examines visions of AI-personalized learning through an analysis of Neal Stephenson's Science Fiction Novel 'The Diamond Age'. While contemporary discourse is often characterized by deterministic visions of AI-based personalization as a panacea to the homogenization and standardization of mass schooling, the novel presents a more…

This study provides a systematic review of innovation in educational leadership, a pivotal domain in the dynamic field of educational practices. Despite increasing interest, a comprehensive understanding of how innovation shapes educational leadership and its outcomes remains limited. To address this gap, this review examines studies published up…

Background/purpose: In a global context marked by accelerating digital transformation, higher education institutions are encountering significant challenges in integrating online learning tools. Although educational technologies are increasingly recognized as catalysts for pedagogical innovation, their effective adoption remains constrained by…

As digital platforms become increasingly common and even the norm for literacy learning environments, established frameworks, pedagogies, and theories do not always translate neatly to these new contexts. This edited volume explores the complex relationship between digital platforms and literacies, understanding that they have become an…

Purpose: The primary objective of this study was to aggregate and synthesize existing research findings in the realm of educational financing considering the adoption of educational technology (EdTech). Design/methodology/approach: The study involves the application of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis Model,…

FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, reusable) research data including software have become a major point of discussion for the educational technology (EdTech) community in recent years. For software, the community has been investigating these issues since its inception in the 90s and 2000s, first starting with learning objects. In this…

Proficiency in written communication is an essential prerequisite for achievement in both academic settings and broader life contexts, yet many struggle with initiating writing and engaging in deep self-reflection and text revision. To address this challenge, this study integrated augmented reality (AR) technology with formative peer assessment…

The creation of applications based on tangible interaction (TI) applications, particularly on tabletops, is a developing area that requires the collaboration of professionals with expert knowledge in specific domains. Having an authoring tool that facilitates interdisciplinary intervention in the design and implementation of such applications is a…

Learning Design (LD) research accounts for several design support tools, or LD tools, employing representations for learning designs to facilitate the "teachers as designers" thinking while preparing learning experiences. In contrast to existing studies having followed mainly a specialist/researcher (as opposed to a teacher) perspective,…

The study presented in this paper uses heuristics from computer linguistics and graph theory to analyze a systematic literature review on educational technology. A literature review was conducted to validate an expert-based taxonomy which was developed to ontologize delivered teaching and learning for easy reuse. The sample includes N = 121…

Artificial intelligence (AI), utilizing machine learning techniques to 'learn' from data, as humans learn from experiences, has the promise to perform various cognitive tasks, such as learning, thinking, problem-solving, and decision-making, which usually demands human cognition. In recent decades, the remarkable advancements in AI have led to its…

This article introduces the development process of social presence-enabled augmented reality (SPEAR) tool, an innovative augmented reality (AR) based learning application tailored for online engineering education. SPEAR focuses on a learning module of structural beam-bending, empowering users to seamlessly integrate 3-D virtual beams into their…

Background: Educational technologies typically provide teachers with analytics regarding student proficiency, but few digital tools provide teachers with process-based information about students' variable problem-solving strategies as they solve problems. Utilising design thinking and co-designing with teachers can provide insight to researchers…

This computational exercise gives students an in-depth look at the reactants, transition state, and product of the crystal violet alkaline hydrolysis reaction. The exercise, which is aimed at second semester general chemistry students, involves DFT energy calculations on five structures: crystal violet cation, crystal violet alcohol, and 4-water…

This study examines pre-service teachers' understanding of technology integration and the role of AI tools in shaping this perspective. Open-ended responses, analysed using topic modelling, reveal the main themes in pre-service teachers' views and compare them with topics generated by AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Bing AI. Key themes in…
