Research finds that engaging students in online deliberations requires three components: (1) designing a space specifically for deliberations, (2) a structured pattern that requires consistent interactions, and (3) a process guided by academically guided outcomes. Using these three components, deliberations become a routine where students share…

Simplified user interfaces (SUIs) refer to a new design technique in technical communication that simplifies screenshots by removing irrelevant elements and highlighting only the essential information. While there is consensus on the benefits of signaling in multimedia learning, there is currently no empirical evidence on the effects of SUIs on…

Prevalence rates of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) across the globe and lifespan suggest that law enforcement officers (LEOs) are likely to interact with autistic people in their professional duties. In developed countries, LEOs have professional encounters with autistic individuals, and research strongly supports LEOs need training to increase…

Although it is commonly believed that automation aids human decision-making, conflicting evidence raises questions about whether individuals would gain greater advantages from automation in difficult tasks. Our study examines the combined influence of task difficulty and automation reliability on aided decision-making. We assessed decision…

The first two years of undergraduate medical education include foundational science and clinical training such as accurately interpreting electrocardiograms (ECGs). ECG education is traditionally delivered via lecture-based presentations in a formal classroom setting. However, students are increasingly finding mobile apps to be instructive to use…

The metaverse, which has a history of about thirty years in written literature, became the agenda of humanity again in the first quarter of the twenty-first century. Although it seems almost impossible today to draw the boundaries of the experience that this technology, which arouses great excitement, will offer, it is possible to say that…

The purpose of this study was to identify factors linked with e-learning utilization. This empirical study (N = 381) was conducted in partnership with a German bank and measured e-learning utilization as the degree to which participants thoroughly completed an extensive number of automatically provided e-learning courses on new banking software.…

This research addresses the critical need for robust usability evaluation tools in Wearable Virtual Reality Educational Applications. We developed a comprehensive set of Wearable Virtual Reality Educational Applications usability heuristics through a multi-stage process. Initial heuristics were established through a literature review. Validation…

In recent years, embodied learning has gained currency in the field of education, allowing interactivity between users, thus contributing to collaborative learning in the flow of embodied immersive technology. Evidence based studies conducted in this field tackled the effectiveness of this approach on students' performance and learning outcomes in…

Immersive virtual reality (IVR) has been widely used in vocational education and training. However, its effectiveness in combination with other forms of teaching remains under-explored, especially concerning learning sequence priority. We aimed to examine the effectiveness of IVR in vocational education and the influence of varying learning…

There is a long-standing lack of learner satisfaction with quality and quantity of feedback in health professions education (HPE) and training. To address this, university and training programmes are increasingly using technological advancements and data analytic tools to provide feedback. One such educational technology is the Learning Analytic…

Identity has received ample attention in computing education research from the viewpoint of "computing identity" and broadening participation, while more attention has been called for to clarify its role. We looked into identity development in the context of Computer Science 1 (CS1) based on Marcia's identity statuses and subsequent…

The last decade has seen the proliferation of hundreds of thousands of online support groups, fostering new opportunities for parents of children with learning disabilities to access to information, advice, and support online. The aim of this qualitative study was to explore the messages of social support exchanged by parents of children with…

The best instructional practices for immersive virtual reality (IVR) use in workplace learning contexts remain undefined after decades of research. Increasing the methodological range and rigor in the study of educational IVR have been proposed. To address these issues, we performed a qualitative study that contributed to the development of a…

The architecture of the computational thinking with gamified using artificial intelligence prompt engineering, or architecture of the CT platform with gamified, is a learning tool intended to promote activity-based learning that focuses on problem-solving by doing. This platform is fabricated with the combination of computational thinking process…
