Marsh, Jackie; Plowman, Lydia; Yamada-Rice, Dylan; Bishop, Julia; Lahmar, Jamal; Scott, Fiona – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2018
This study is the first to systematically investigate the extent to which apps for children aged 0-5 foster play and creativity. There is growing evidence of children's use of tablets, but limited knowledge of the use of apps by children of children of this age. This ESRC-funded study undertook research that identified how UK children aged from 0…

Uanhoro, James Ohisei; O'Connell, Ann A. – AERA Online Paper Repository, 2018
There have been increasing calls for applied researchers to see and utilize effect sizes as the primary outcomes of their research. However, this sometimes places a methodological burden on researchers whose primary interests are substantive. Motivated by a desire to help applied researchers better report effect sizes and their confidence…

Miguel, Hugo Gonzaga; Ramos, Pedro; da Cruz Martins, Susana; Costa, Joana Martinho – Education for Information, 2020
One of the most widely researched issue on higher education relates to exposed paths that lead to academic success. Nowadays information systems represent an essential part of the education sector in many universities. In particular, the increasing of the number of students in higher education in Portugal leads to the progressive increase of…

Rodriguez-Triana, Maria Jesus; Prieto, Luis P.; Holzer, Adrian; Gillet, Denis – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2020
With the wide availability of mobile devices and the growing interest in social media, numerous applications have emerged to support student engagement in the classroom. There is conflicting evidence, however, on whether the engagement benefits of such applications outweigh their potential cost as a source of disaffection. To investigate these…

Petterson, Michael N.; Watts, Field M.; Snyder-White, Emma P.; Archer, Sabrina R.; Shultz, Ginger V.; Finkenstaedt-Quinn, Solaire A. – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2020
An understanding of acid-base reactions is necessary for success in chemistry courses and relevant to careers outside of chemistry, yet research has demonstrated that students often struggle with learning acid-base reaction mechanisms in organic chemistry. One response to this challenge is the development of educational applications to support…

Nami, Fatemeh – Australasian Journal of Educational Technology, 2020
The popularity and use of smartphone apps for language learning have significantly grown in Iran over the past years. Despite this growth, empirical data on students' choice of such apps, their perception towards them, and the impact of external factors on their attitude remains scant. In an attempt to contribute to this research base, a…

Schueller, Albert W. – PRIMUS, 2020
Recently, a new source of data with great potential for use in the mathematics classroom has become available. The smartphones in our pockets are packed with sensors. Most phones have at a minimum global positioning, accelerometer, magnetometer, and gyroscope sensors. We give an example of the collection and analysis of global positioning sensor…

Gindidis, Simone; Stewart, Sandra E.; Roodenburg, John – Educational and Developmental Psychologist, 2020
Smartphone ownership estimates indicate the vast majority of young people are engaging with smartphone devices. The medium offers a promising opportunity for psychologists to connect with young people seeking help to traverse challenges with mental health, behaviour, learning and wellbeing. However, the views of young people using apps alongside…

Karno, Donna; Hatcher, Beth – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2020
A Multi-touch table functions as a tablet, but allows multiple children to move around and manipulate the screen simultaneously. Using social cognitive theory (Bandura 1997) to analyze group dynamics, this study examined computer-supported collaborative learning. Children were observed and recorded for 20 min, three times a week for 5 weeks as…

Sierra Eisen; Angeline S. Lillard – Grantee Submission, 2020
In three studies, we examined children's geography learning from a physical puzzle and an app designed to mimic the puzzle. In Study 1, 5- and 6-year-olds were taught Australia's states by an experimenter using a puzzle or were taught by an app. Children learned significantly more states from instruction with the puzzle than when they used the app…

Sher, Keren Ben-Tov; Levi-Keren, Michal; Gordon, Goren – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2019
In the information age, where all answers are just a click away, curiosity, the intrinsic drive to learn, becomes of paramount importance. How easy is it to prime for curiosity and what are its effects? What simple interventions can be used to enable curiosity-driven behaviors? We have conducted a large-scale study to address these questions,…
