Students' excessive reliance on mobile phones during English classes diminishes their learning engagement and understanding, which in turn affects their academic performance. Teachers' prior observations at our selected university indicated that smartphone usage among English learners varied significantly across class groups and among individual…

This study explores the factors influencing student engagement and behavioral intention towards mobile learning platforms, with a focus on widely used platforms in Indonesia, such as Ruangguru, Zenius, and Quipper. A total of 375 questionnaires were distributed, out of which 363 were deemed valid and used for analysis. The research employed…

Mathematics is one of the core subjects in engineering education and forms the foundation of all disciplines in engineering. In Hong Kong, a significant number of students are admitted to engineering programmes without sufficient mathematical background. Engineering mathematics is essential for teaching and learning many fundamental and advanced…

The impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic on families of young children with disabilities is well documented; however, there is little published research on the experiences of pediatricians and Part C Early Intervention (EI) personnel during the pandemic. This study examined the collective experiences of general pediatricians and Part C EI…

In places where in-person applied behavior analysis (ABA) services are not available to those in need, distance approaches may be needed. However, in the Czech Republic and surrounding countries, ABA and telehealth practices are just emerging. Therefore, minimal systems are guiding ABA-based telehealth for children with autism and their…

Introduction: Prior research has documented the associations among phubbing, depression, and anxiety, while the cross-sectional design failed to clarify the temporal directionality of the relationships between these mental disorders and behavioral issues. To bridge this gap, the present study utilizing longitudinal data aimed to articulate the…

In this study, we challenge the notion that technology, when applied in the private sector of Brazilian academic education, serves as an instrument of democratization. To explore this, we delve into the case of the startup Ampli, which offers college programs through a mobile application. The easy access it provides to students may signify…

Collaborative problem-solving (CPS) is increasingly essential in both scientific practice and modern education, yet remains difficult to embed authentically in classrooms. This study addressed that gap by integrating CPS into a ninth-grade biology lesson using a smartphone-based asymmetric simulation. The innovative three-phase instructional…

Numerous studies have explored motivation in language learning, yet few have focused on writing in English as a foreign language (EFL), particularly among primary school children. This study aimed to explore EFL writing motivation among Croatian young language learners (YLLs) at the end of primary education (Grade 8). It investigated both internal…

Background/purpose: The students have difficulty understanding abstract concepts that are sometimes difficult to visualize in optics and physics, so learning innovations are needed to overcome these problems. Case-Based Learning (CBL) optical physics learning integrated with mobile microlearning offers an innovative approach to improving the…

This study examined the barriers and coping strategies involved in integrating Mobile-Assisted Language Learning (MALL), including AI-driven tools, among 399 EFL instructors. Through a survey and supplemental interviews, the research explored how instructors' background characteristics influence their coping strategies and the barriers they…
