Academic cyberloafing, defined as the involvement in non-academic online activities during academic tasks, has emerged as a prevalent concern within higher education. While previous research has identified course-related factors that may influence academic cyberloafing, the specific relation between perceived course difficulty and academic…

This study investigated the relationships between academic self-discipline, self-control and management, meaningful learning self-awareness, and generative artificial intelligence (GAI) acceptance among 597 teacher candidates at nine Turkish universities. A serial mediation model was proposed, hypothesizing that academic self-discipline influences…

Joint attention is essential for establishing effective social communication. However, children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) often exhibit deficits in joint attention, which hinder their social interactions with peers and adults. Traditional assessment methods predominantly rely on expert observation, lacking objective measures of…

This study examines how active learning principles and considerations are reflected in preservice teachers' learning experiences with augmented reality (AR) and how they conceptualize its use in their future classrooms. Twenty-eight preservice teachers, including three interviewed participants, were surveyed about their experiences with AR and…

Autistic students are educated in Australia across a variety of contexts and almost all educators use individualized goal-setting as a way of ensuring appropriate accommodations and curriculum modifications. Educators experience similar challenges when developing individualized goals for students, including lack of a standardized process for goal…

Background and Context: Feedback on one's progress is essential to new programming language learners, particularly in out-of-classroom settings. Though many study materials offer assessment mechanisms, most do not examine the accuracy of the feedback they deliver, nor give evidence on its validity. Objective: We investigate the potential use of a…

The profound impact of the Internet of Things (IoT) on various fronts, is driven by technological advancements, the ubiquitous spread of information, and the emergence of transformative events. IoT presents a diverse array of possibilities within university environments, fostering a more connected and enhanced educational experience. This research…

We introduce the free web-app PyGgb -- the combination of the well-known programming language Python and the dynamic mathematics system GeoGebra. Motivated by the desire to provide an introduction to Python coding in the familiar context of mathematics and geometry, PyGgb allows GeoGebra constructions to be created using Python code. We outline…

Previous research on technology implementation in rural schools has focused on two types of challenges: (1) access to internet-ready technological devices and the infrastructure to operate them and (2) teacher attitudes and beliefs about technologies. This research drew on posthumanism to explore tensions that emerged as technological devices were…

Background: The demand for effective disaster preparedness training in hospitals is steadily increasing, as healthcare staff need to handle emergencies efficiently while providing patient care. However, conventional training methods like live drills and tabletop exercises can require significant resources, limit participation, and disrupt hospital…

Open Source Program Offices (OSPOs) are dedicated units that coordinate and nurture open source software adoption across the organization. Over the past decade, as the importance of software as a research output, essential component of reproducible science, and community infrastructure for open science has grown, several major funders of…

This study aims to develop a location-based augmented reality (LBAR) Android application and test its effectiveness in supporting orientation programs for newly enrolled students. The application was designed to facilitate easier adaptation to the environment and university life for novice students. Unity, ARCore SDK, and the AR+GPS Unity Package…

This study aims to identify the characteristics of implementation and integration strategies of computational thinking (CT) and scientific approaches in programming education, viewed from the lens of educational levels, subject Matter, and research focus. The method employed is a systematic literature review following the PRISMA framework. A total…

The urgent need to train military and civilian responders in combat casualty care during large-scale operations presents challenges due to the variability of learner preparedness and the resource demands of traditional curriculum development. This study examines the application of generative artificial intelligence (AI) in authoring and evaluating…

In this article, we analyze how a hashtag on Twitter allows to create a space of affinity that facilitates teachers' learning. We analyzed 78,470 tweets that included the hashtag #ClaustroVirtual. We determined the frequency and temporal distribution of these tweets while detecting the most active teachers using this hashtag, analyzing the…
